There has been plenty of reaction to the nearly $60 million pledged by the Nova Scotia government Tuesday for a new medical school campus at Cape Breton University (CBU) in Sydney, N.S.
SYDNEY, N.S. At a time of year when many Maritimers typically spend time with family, Air Canada’s recent cut of flight routes across the region may make it more difficult for families to connect. Effective Jan. 11, Air Canada is suspending all flights in Sydney, N.S., and Saint John, N.B., until further notice. The airline also announced, effective Jan. 11, it is suspending four routes in Charlottetown, Fredericton, Deer Lake, N.L., and Halifax until further notice. News that there will soon be no flights in or out of the J.A. McCurdy Airport in Sydney hits hard for the hundreds of rotational workers who fly back and forth between Cape Breton and jobs across the country.
