Njengoba ongqongqoshe bekhabhinethi beqhosha ngokuvulela isibhakabhaka saseCanada izindiza zakwamanye amazwe, izikhulu zezokuthutha bezibukela phansi buthule izinhlelo zenkampani yezindiza ezinkulu emhlabeni zokwandisa isevisi eToronto, imibhalo etholwe yi-Star show.
Ezithangamini eziyimfihlo, izikhulu zeTransport Canada ziye zaphikisana nesicelo se-Emirates Airlines sokufinyelela okwengeziwe emakethe yaseCanada, zikhokhisa ukuthi inkampani yenethiwekhi yaseMpumalanga Ephakathi “iyithuluzi lenqubomgomo kahulumeni” futhi ixhaswa kakhulu yisikhwama somphakathi.
Baphinde baphakamise ukuthi iTransport Canada kufanele ivikele abathwali baseCanada emiqhudelwaneni.
Ukusabela kukahulumeni wobumbano esicelweni se-Emirates kuqubule ukusola okukhulu kwesikhulu esiphezulu sezindiza, esisola izikhulu zeTransport Canada ngokwenza izinsolo “eziyinhlamba”.
Encwadini ayibhalela umnyango, iPhini Likamongameli Omkhulu we-Emirates u-Andrew Parker uthi naphezu kwesithembiso sokuvakasha okwengeziwe, imisebenzi emisha kanye nezinye izinzuzo zezomnotho, i-Transport Canada ifuna ukugcina i-Emirates - inkampani yenethiwekhi yomhlaba wonke ehlinzeka amazwe angu-60 - ngaphandle kwemakethe yaseCanada.
“Ulimi olusetshenziswe i-Transport Canada kule minyaka eyishumi edlule lunonya, ngokuvamile luchemile futhi aluvumelani ngokujulile nalesi sithwali,” kubhala uParker encwadini etholwe yi-Star.
"Inhloso yangempela yalokhu kunqatshwa ngokudabukisayo ukugcina i-Emirates ikude unomphela eCanada. … I-Emirates ngeke ivinjwe,” kubhala uParker.
Lesi sikhala sinikeza iwindi emhlabeni wezivumelwano zomoya zamazwe ngamazwe, lapho imibono yomnotho womhlaba ivame ukungqubuzana nemizwa ejulile yokuvikela, ukuzicabangela wena kanye nezomnotho.
Ongqongqoshe beKhabhinethi abakhulu baseCanada baphokophele ubudlelwano obuseduze ne-United Arab Emirates. Lokho kuphakamisa ukuthi ukumelana nebhidi ye-Emirates yokundizela kaningi ukuya e-Canada kungaphakathi kwe-federal bureaucracy.
Umnyombo wengxabano ekhulayo yisicelo esivela ku-Emirates Airlines sokwandisa izindiza phakathi kwe-Dubai ne-Toronto, kanye nokuqala isevisi eya e-Calgary nase-Vancouver.
Lesi sicelo sizuze ukwesekwa okubanzi phakathi komasipala kanye nohulumeni bezifundazwe, abathi ukuhamba kwezindiza okwengeziwe kuzosho ukuvakasha okwengeziwe, ukutshalwa kwezimali okusha kanye nemisebenzi eyengeziwe. Kulinganiselwa ukuthi ukuvumela i-Emirates kanye nenye inkampani yezindiza yase-UAE, i-Etihad Airways, ukuthi ithuthukise izindiza eziya e-Pearson iyodwa kuzokhiqiza imisebenzi engaphezu kuka-500, amaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-20 emiholweni kanye nezigidi ezingu-13.5 zamaRandi emalini yentela.
Kodwa-ke, iTransport Canada igcizelela ukuthi izindiza eziyisithupha ngesonto zisuka e-United Arab Emirates ziya eCanada - ezihlukaniswe phakathi kwe-Emirates ne-Etihad - zanele ukusebenzela imakethe.
Kepha esethulweni esitholwe yi-Star, enesihloko esithi “Blue Sky, Inqubomgomo Yomoya YaseCanada Yamazwe Ngamazwe,” esinikezwe ababambiqhaza kule ntwasahlobo, izikhulu eziphezulu zezokuThutha eCanada zizwakalise ezinye izizathu zokungaqhubeki nesicelo se-Emirates, okuhlanganisa:
“I-Emirates ne-Etihad zingamathuluzi enqubomgomo kahulumeni. …
Bathi imakethe ephakathi kweCanada ne-UAE incane, okuphakamisa ukuthi ayikufanele ukunakwa.
Icaphuna ucwaningo oluzimele oluthi ukwanda kwezindiza ezixhaswe ngumphakathi ePersian Gulf kuzoholela “emiqhudelwaneni engenampilo nokuziphatha okungenangqondo kwezentengiselwano.”
Iphakamisa ukuthi abathwali baseCanada badinga ukuvikelwa. “Emabhanoyini omhlaba, njengakweminye imikhakha enamaqhinga, amazwe ashayelwa wukuzenzela umathanda. ICanada iyawukhohlwa lo mthetho engcupheni yawo, ”kusho iphepha lesithangami. "Isibhakabhaka sethu sivulekile, okungenani sivulekile ngendlela esinganikezwa ngayo ... intshisekelo yethu yezwe."
Kepha ekuphikisani okungamakhasi ayisithupha kuBrigita Gravitis-Beck, umqondisi-jikelele wenqubomgomo yezomoya weTransport Canada, uParker uthi izinsolo zikahulumeni azinalwazi futhi “zinephutha elikhulu.”
"Sicasulwe kakhulu ngesiphakamiso - ngaphandle kwesisekelo esiqinile - sokuthi i-Emirates ithole ukwesekwa nguhulumeni ngokuthengwa kwezindiza. Asilutholi uxhaso noma ukwesekwa nguhulumeni,” kubhala uParker.
Nakuba i-Emirates ingaphansi kukahulumeni, uParker uthi inkampani yezindiza isebenza ngokugcwele ngaphandle koxhaso lomphakathi.
Futhi usola ukuthi izikhulu zikahulumeni zizama ngamabomu ukukhoselisa i-Air Canada emqhudelwaneni, nakuba ingandizi iye e-UAE.
"Ngokungafani ne-Air Canada, i-Emirates ayikujabuleli ukuvikeleka kwezepolitiki - uhlobo olukhulu kakhulu loxhaso," uyabhala.
UParker uphinde agcone isimangalo sikahulumeni sokuthi imakethe ekhona ayisho lutho, ethi amandla eqiniso omzila waseCanada-Dubai ngeke afezeke ngoba i-Ottawa ikhawulele izindiza.
Uthi isimo sengqondo esiqinile se-Ottawa asikashintshi kule minyaka eyishumi edlule, naphezu kokukhula “okungajwayelekile” kwezohwebo phakathi kwalezi zizwe zombili.
"Siyethemba ukuthi iTransport Canada izoba nombono olinganiselayo futhi onembe nge-Emirates."
Izikhulu zezokuthutha zithe izolo azikwazanga ukuphawula ngengxabano noma ngezinsolo zazo ezithinta i-Emirates.
