There used to be a lot of ski operations decades ago but it's all history by now. Most, if not all of our major bush operators have replaced their old bush planes with turboprops and jets, i.e.: ., Air Inuit, etc.

Other than Johnny May's Air Service in Kuujjuaq, I don't think there is anything else, unless Air Roberval or Air Saguenay hits a mining contract after the float season.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Cheers

FYI Air Inuit still equips some of it's Twin Otters with skis during Winter depending on the contracts requirements.

Cheers.
