June 8 - TIAC has launched a broad, industry-developed recovery proposal that seeks sector-specific government support to ensure Canada has a tourism industry post-pandemic.

 

All of TIAC’s recommendations fall into five core themes, including:

1. Championing Safety – ensuring coordinated regulatory efforts to develop a climate of public safety and help fund costs for new health and safety requirements.

2. Sustaining Liquidity & Supporting Solvency – ensuring the sector is positioned to survive the next
   2-24 months, at present, many businesses are at risk of closing.

3. Enticing Canadians to Travel – positive messaging, when appropriate, reassuring people it is
   safe to travel

4. Repositioning Canada’s Visitor Economy – to re-emerge a stronger and more cost competitive global tourism competitor

5. Supercharging the Canadian Economy – fast tracking growth capital

 

“We are ready to engage in meaningful dialogue with Government on how we can collaborate on reopening the visitor economy and ensure support for a recovery period that will last longer for this sector,” said Bell.
