WestJet CEO Alexis von Hoensbroech wants a national aviation strategy to curb rising costs and fix a market he says is “tilting” because of government aid. He says labour laws, passenger rights, taxes, and fees hinder growth, and wants reforms viewed holistically rather than in isolation. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
