Canadian airlines see opportunity for country to be a global biojet powerhouse

In Canada, major domestic airlines believe the country can become a global leader in aviation biofuel thanks to an abundance of feedstock such as forestry residue and homegrown technologies that can be commercialized locally. Rather than looking to imports from long distances, they want to see a domestic industry grow. They encourage the government to support the growing industry to help bring down the costs of fuel that will lead to greater uptake by airlines.
