  • the duties and responsibilities of air traffic control service providers under Canadian law
  • the duties and responsibilities of airport operators under Canadian law
  • the jurisdiction of the Canadian courts under the Montreal and Warsaw Conventions
  • the lack of technologies at LBPIA to provide advance warning against dangerous wind conditions produced by thunderstorms
