Canada 3000

Canada 3000 Inc. was a Canadian discount charter airline offering domestic and international flights. It was the largest charter airline in the world at the time of its operation, with over 90 destinations worldwide, although it changed to scheduled service in 2000 after the Canadian Airlines and Air Canada merger. Canada 3000 competed with Air Canada, WestJet, and fellow charter airline Air Transat. In November 2001, the airline went out of business after a sharp decline in revenues following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in the United States. There have been several attempts to restart the airline since then. The airline was headquartered in Etobicoke in the west-end of Toronto, Ontario.

History

The airline was created in 1988 by British airline Air 2000, initially for charter service to lease some of its airplanes for Canadian charter travel. The airline was denied license to operate by the National Transport Agency NTA because of the control and ownership of the UK firm. Air 2000 dropped out of an ownership position, and the airline started operations in December 1988. In May 1989, by order of the NTA, it changed its name to 'Canada 3000'. The next year the airline acquired Vacationair and a subsidiary was created in Mexico with the name Aerofiesta. The company's owners were the Deluce family (25%), chairman John Lecky (45%) and Adventure Tours (30%). Following the demise of Wardair, the company's goal was to become Canada's largest charter carrier, a position it attained in 1991.

Canada (i/ˈkænədə/; French: [ka.na.da]) is a country in the northern part of North America. Its ten provinces and three territories extend from the Atlantic to the Pacific and northward into the Arctic Ocean, covering 9.98 million square kilometres (3.85 million square miles), making it the world's second-largest country by total area and the fourth-largest country by land area. Canada's border with the United States is the world's longest land border. Canada is sparsely populated, the majority of its land territory being dominated by forest and tundra and the Rocky Mountains; about four-fifths of the country's population of 35 million people live near the southern border. The majority of Canada has a cold or severely cold winter climate, but southerly areas are warm in summer.

The land now called Canada has been inhabited for millennia by various Aboriginal peoples. Beginning in the 15th century, British and French colonies were established on the Atlantic coast, with the first establishment of a region called "Canada" occurring in 1537. As a consequence of various conflicts, the United Kingdom gained and lost territories within British North America until left, in the late 18th century, with what mostly geographically comprises Canada today. Pursuant to the British North America Act, on July 1, 1867, the colonies of Canada, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia joined to form the autonomous federal Dominion of Canada. This began an accretion of provinces and territories to the self-governing Dominion to the present ten provinces and three territories forming modern Canada. In 1931, Canada achieved near total independence from the United Kingdom with the Statute of Westminster 1931, and full sovereignty was attained when the Canada Act 1982 removed the last remaining ties of legal dependence on the British parliament.

Ecclesiastical Province of Canada

The Ecclesiastical Province of Canada was founded in 1860 and is one of four ecclesiastical provinces in the Anglican Church of Canada. Despite its name, the province covers only the former territory of Lower Canada (i.e., southern and eastern Quebec), the Maritimes, and Newfoundland and Labrador (Ontario was split off as a separate province in 1913). There are seven dioceses in the province:

  • Montreal (Quebec),
  • Quebec (whose borders are consistent with Lower Canada outside of Montreal),
  • Fredericton (New Brunswick),
  • Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island (Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island),
  • Western Newfoundland (Newfoundland and Labrador),
  • Central Newfoundland (Newfoundland and Labrador), and
  • Eastern Newfoundland and Labrador (Newfoundland and Labrador).
  • Provinces of the Anglican Church of Canada are headed by a Metropolitan, elected from among the province's diocesan bishops. This bishop then becomes Archbishop of his or her diocese and Metropolitan of the Province. The current Metropolitan of the Province of Canada is the Most Rev. Percy D. Coffin, Archbishop of Western Newfoundland.

    Så nära ligger sömnen
    under alla täcken sval
    svept och gömd i filtar
    plast, nylon, cellofan
    Min mun vid termometern
    fuskar Mig febersvag
    & det känns som om
    Jag glömt någonting kvar?
    Jag tappar mina kläder
    Jag tappar värmen
    grad för grad
    Nu skakar Mina händer
    värre varje dag
    som cesium & syre
    brinner Jag alldeles klart
    & det känns som om
    Jag glömt någonting kvar?
    Refr:
    Hon är vaken
    Jag vet att hon är vaken
    Jag är vaken
    Hon vet att Jag är vaken
    Vi är vakna
    Visst syns det att Vi
    vaknat nyss
    och väntar?
    Så nära känner lukten
    nu kan Jag slappna av
    & utanför på trappan
    får frosten Dig att tappa tag
    Det har hunnit bli oktober
    nu fryser gräset & går av
    & Jag hatar allt
    som böjs & går av
    Refr.
    Tänk om Jag har fel
