Canstar Aviation Ltd. (hereinafter the Licensee) has applied to the National Transportation Agency for the suspension set out in the title. The application was received on December 7, 1995.

Under Licence No. 920176, the Licensee is authorized to operate a domestic service.

Under Licence No. 920177, the Licensee is authorized to operate a Class 4 Charter domestic service using fixed wing aircraft in Groups A and B, from a base at Hudson's Hope, British Columbia.

By Decision No. 768-A-1994 dated November 23, 1994, Licence Nos. 920176 and 920177 were suspended pursuant to subsection 75(2) of the National Transportation Act, 1987, R.S.C., 1985, c. 28 (3rd Supp.) (hereinafter the NTA, 1987).

The Agency has reviewed the application and considers it appropriate to further suspend Licence Nos. 920176 and 920177.

Licence Nos. 920176 and 920177 are hereby suspended pursuant to subsection 75(2) of the NTA, 1987.

To reinstate the suspended services, the Licensee is hereby required to file an application by no later than December 30, 1996. When the Agency is satisfied, based upon material on file or from information specifically requested from the Licensee, that the Licensee is Canadian, holds a Canadian aviation document (operating certificate) and has filed a valid certificate of insurance, the Agency shall reinstate the suspended licences.

With respect to the request to suspend the licences until May 30, 1996, the Licensee may file an application whenever it is willing and able to reinstate the services.

Alternatively, if no application is filed, the Licensee is required to show cause, by no later than December 30, 1996, why its licences should not be cancelled pursuant to subsection 75(1) of the NTA, 1987, as failure to meet any of the above requirements would give reasonable grounds to the Agency to believe that, in respect of the services for which the licences are issued, the Licensee ceases to have the qualifications necessary for the issuance of the licences and/or has contravened section 98 of the NTA, 1987.

This Decision shall form part of Licence Nos. 920176 and 920177 and shall remain affixed thereto as long as the said Decision is in force.
