NLIS 4 November 23, 2001 (Government Services and Lands) Noel asks federal transport minister to assist Canada 3000 customers Walter Noel, minister responsible for consumer affairs, has written federal Transport Minister David Collenette regarding the collapse of Canada 3000 and the dramatic negative impact it has had on consumers. In his letter Mr. Noel said:
Consumer affairs officials in the Department of Government Service and Lands are advising consumers of certain actions they may take with respect to this matter. Consumers who paid for their tickets with a credit card should contact their credit card company or banking institution to see if those charges can be reversed. Consumers who bought separate travel insurance should call their respective insurance companies to see if those companies will cover the costs. Minister Noel advises that he has asked officials to examine measures which may be introduced to ensure that suitable compensation funds are put in place to deal with such unfortunate situations.
