Jazz Aviation flight attendants vote in favour of strike mandate

TORONTO - The Canadian Flight Attendant Union representing over 1,000 Jazz Aviation attendants has reported that a vote has been taken overwhelmingly in support of a strike mandate. The union claims 99 percent of voting members backed the decision following months of negotiations. Jazz Aviation, which operates flights under the Air Canada Express brand, has been without a contract since the beginning of January.

Union president Marsha Walters stated the aim is for members to receive fair compensation for their work. Meanwhile, Jazz Aviation based in Halifax, owned by Chorus Aviation, has yet to comment on the matter. This report, initially published by The Canadian Press on September 4, 2026, aims to provide a factual account of the event.
