Jobs For Londoners Created In 48 hours 

December 2, 2009 London West Member of Parliament Ed Holder praised the London International Airport for moving quickly to provide employment opportunities following a significant federal government investment on Monday.

 

“On Monday, we announced $8M for the London Airport and within 48 hours we see the positive results.  I am extremely pleased with the light-speed that the Airport has moved to advance their ambitious air cargo facility.  While the investment is a legacy one, the impact it will have for London starts immediately,” said Holder.

 

Well-paying employment opportunities are now posted on the Airport website at www.londonairport.on.ca/employment.html and these senior positions will result in further employment.

 

“Steve Baker and his team at the Airport have done London proud by showing they are ready to help our local economy rebound and expand.  Their vision and hard work is paying off today for tomorrow,” added Holder.

 

On Monday, the federal government announced that it would provide $8M of a $11M expansion of the London International Airport.  The new facilities will create a significant air cargo handling facility and further cement the Airport as a leading Ontario airport.

 

The November 30, 2009 Press Release regarding the funding announcement is available at www.edholder.ca
