Trudeau Airport: Three other employees lost their security cards

A total of five employees at the Montréal-Trudeau airport had their security cards suspended.

The security cards of three more employees of the Montréal-Trudeau airport have been suspended, confirmed Transport Minister Marc Garneau on Monday without specifying the reasons.

These three employees therefore no longer have access to the safe area of the airport, but are still working there.

“Two weeks ago I asked my department to look at the protocols and the risk factors that exist at Trudeau Airport-we do this every now and then at every airport-and there are three people who have had their security clearance temporarily withdrawn because we are investigating certain details, “he said in response to a journalist’s question.

The Minister added that the safety rating of these employees will remain lower for the duration of this investigation.

“I cannot give you the specifics for obvious reasons, but I can confirm that we do it from time to time,” he added.

It’s yet another case after the case of two other employees at the airport whose security card was suspended because they showed signs of radicalization, as revealed by a report on the show J.E. last week.

The 16,000 employees who have access to the Trudeau Airport secure area are reviewed every 24 hours in light of the information contained in a police database, Marc Garneau said. A procedure that has existed for a long time, he argued.

More than 1,000 people have lost their access cards or simply have not been hired by the airport in the last two years, either because they were unreliable, incompetent or for medical reasons, the Minister said.

A “nonchalant attitude”

Conservative MP Gérard Deltell believes Minister Garneau was nonchalant when the news broke out last week.

“The only thing the Minister had to do is kick his foot and say ‘wait a minute’, put his fist on the table and say stop, we need to correct the situation,” he said.

He believes that Minister Garneau must do more to restore public confidence in the safety rating of airport employees.

“A person who is in this situation is one person too many,” he said.
