"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6440512\" data-originallang=\"en\">We are looking to see rapid antigen testing expanded to more airports. I know our member airports are working with provincial health authorities and the federal government to make that happen as quickly as we can. We're really focused on international air travel primarily, but of course there are some parts of the country where domestic travel is really quite suppressed, even more than the average at this point\u2014in Manitoba and Atlantic Canada, for example. At least in Atlantic Canada, our members are urgently calling for rapid testing to be introduced into those airports so that we can make travellers even safer than they already are and provide greater confidence to travellers on the safety of air travel.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6440513\" data-originallang=\"en\">We have a few short months to get this in place if we are going to have it in place in time for the summer season. We believe other countries in the northern hemisphere are going to start to see a recovery in travel and tourism in the summer, and we're not sure yet if Canada's going to be able to participate in it.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6440512\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous envisageons d'\u00e9tendre les tests s\u00e9rologiques rapides \u00e0 d'autres a\u00e9roports. Je sais que nos a\u00e9roports membres collaborent avec les autorit\u00e9s sanitaires provinciales et le gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral pour que cela se fasse le plus rapidement possible. Nous nous concentrons principalement sur les voyages a\u00e9riens internationaux, mais bien entendu, les voyages int\u00e9rieurs sont vraiment tr\u00e8s limit\u00e9s dans certaines r\u00e9gions du pays, encore plus que la moyenne \u00e0 ce stade, au Manitoba et dans le Canada atlantique, par exemple. Au moins dans le Canada atlantique, nos membres demandent de toute urgence la mise en oeuvre des tests rapides dans ces a\u00e9roports afin que nous puissions assurer encore mieux la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des voyageurs que nous le faisons d\u00e9j\u00e0 et leur donner davantage confiance dans la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 du transport a\u00e9rien.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6440513\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous disposons de quelques mois seulement pour mettre en place ces tests si nous voulons \u00eatre pr\u00eats pour la saison estivale. Nous pensons que d'autres pays de l'h\u00e9misph\u00e8re Nord vont commencer \u00e0 observer une reprise des voyages et du tourisme pendant l'\u00e9t\u00e9, et nous ne sommes pas encore s\u00fbrs que le Canada pourra y participer.</p>"
