Canadian Airports Resume Operations After Bomb Threats Spark Temporary Ground Stops

Air travel across Canada is gradually returning to normal after a wave of bomb threats forced temporary ground stops at several major airports earlier today, according to Nav Canada, the country’s air navigation service provider.

The threats, which affected facilities in Ottawa, Montreal, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Calgary, and Vancouver, prompted swift evacuations and security assessments. Authorities have confirmed that all employees are safe, and no suspicious items were found during searches.

By mid-morning, Nav Canada announced that services were resuming at the impacted sites. However, travelers should expect delays as operations stabilize. “We thank airlines and passengers for their patience as we work towards normal operations,” the agency stated.

Local police and airport authorities are continuing investigations. Due to security protocols, the specific nature of the threats has not been disclosed.

Despite the disruption, most airports reported*minimal impact on flight schedules, and no injuries have been reported. Passengers are advised to check with their airlines for the latest updates before heading to the airport.
