My Brother-in-law in BC Might start working at Voisey Bay Mine.
Does anybody in Avcanada do their flying?

Provincial Airlines has that contract

What destination is closest to the Mine? Would Air Innu Twin Otter provide the last leg to the mine site? He would be flying from Vancouver for a month's work, then back for 2 weeks off.

Provincial Airlines operates a Dash 8 daily to Voisey's Bay. The airport designator is CVB2.

Thanks for the replies, exactly what I was looking for.

And you can catch Provincial out of Montreal, couple of times daily. The flights go Montreal - Sept-Iles - Wabush - Goose.

The Voisey Dash8 leaves YYT every morning usually around 0700 and departs the Site usually around 1110 to head back to Town. Always stops in YYR on the way up so your brother could connect easily to Montreal or head home from St. John's.

Thank you all for your information. Not only did I receive all the info he needed, he just informed me he won't be going there after all.
Anyways, Thanks again, Bob

Where did that come from?

The union at Voysie's Bay Mine is on strike. ISTP assumed a new employee would be a replacement (scab) worker.
