Transport Canada has grounded the airline that operated the plane that crashed in northern Saskatchewan earlier this month.

A West Wind Aviation ATR42-320 with 25 people on board went down on December 13th shortly after taking off from the Fond du Lac airstrip.

Everyone survived, but seven people were seriously hurt.

Transport Canada says it has suspended the airline’s operator certificate, citing deficiencies in the company’s operational control system.

It says the company can’t resume its commercial air service until it demonstrates compliance with aviation safety regulations. (The Canadian Press)
