Dear Sir,

As active members of the Council of Canadian Airlines Employees and members of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, we are writing today to ask for your support.

We believe that both Air Canada and Canadian Airlines should remain viable in order to service The Lower Mainland with competitive air travel. We also believe that if Canadian Airlines is forced into bankruptcy it could have a devastating effect on the local economy.

The prospects of thousands of Canadian Airlines employees joining the ranks of the unemployed, with an already over burdened social system, makes our future as members of the community bleak.

Canadian. Airlines is running out of time. We need your support now!

The position you and your council take is important to us in our "Drive To Survive". If your require any information, please feel free to contact us at 273-9668 or fax us at 273-9670. We would appreciate a response informing us of your support.

Thank you.

SO fste if
