Airports are returning to normal operations after Canada’s air traffic control service said some received bomb threats early Thursday morning.
“Early this morning, NAV CANADA was made aware of bomb threats affecting facilities in Ottawa, Montreal, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Calgary and Vancouver,” a spokesperson said in a statement.
It said employees at these airports are safe and there was a temporary ground stop. A spokesperson for Edmonton International Airport (YEG) said the security incident had “minimal impact on operations including a handful of delays. Regular operations have resumed.”
“The safety and security of our passengers, team members and partners is our top priority,” a brief statement reads.
