Summary
Yesterday, Canada’s defence minister David McGuinty announced that 2026 will be the final season for the Snowbirds’ CT-114 Tutor jets, with a transition to new aircraft expected in the early 2030s. He said the move preserves a proud Canadian tradition while investing billions in future pilot training, infrastructure, and long-term economic benefits for Moose Jaw and the Prairies. Donna Fritzke, Executive Director of Tourism Moose Jaw, joins Evan to share her perspective on what this means for the city and local tourism.
