TCA was established on April 10, 1937, with $5 million of public funds, to meet the nation's urgent need for air transportation. Have the people profited by owning an airline? Have Canada's air transport requirements been well provided for? What have 25 years of TCA operations meant to the Canadian taxpayer and the country as a whole? These and other questions about your airline deserve answers in this Silver Anniversary year. This is the first in a series of messages presenting facts on which answers may be based. THE PEOPLE'S INVESTMENT. The Canadian people have invested in TCA in two ways. The government has loaned the company (through Canadian National Railways) $228 million at current rates of interest. $36 million has been returned to the public purse in interest on these loans. The government has also paid about $25 million for setting up the company and for losses sustained in 10 of the 25 years since 1937. (In the other 15 years, TCA made profits.) Thus, it might be said that the people have a total invest- ment of $253 million in the airline. WHAT THIS REPRESENTS. As a result of its investment, the Canadian public owns TCA plant and equipment costing $316 million. This is made up of one of the finest aircraft fleets in service anywhere (11 DC-8's, 20 Vanguards, 49 Viscounts), five maintenance bases, and a vast array of ground facilities, equipment and spares. quarter of service It also owns an asset beyond price in the experience and know-how -- accumulated over 25 years--of 11,500 highly skilled employees. This combination of material and human assets adds up to one of the largest, most modern and most respected air transport systems in the world. But its over-all value to Canada does not stop there. HELPING CANADA'S ECONOMY. In 1961, TCA paid out over $6474 million in wages to employees in Canada (94% of its total payroll). It paid j Canadian suppliers some $5414 million for goods and services required to operate the airline. support hundreds of industries and businesses in scores of communities from B.C. to Newfoundland. TCA PAYS ITS WAY. As a publicly-owned company, TCA is dedicated to providing Canadians with the best possible air trans- portation at the lowest feasible cost. But TCA must--and does-- pay its way like any other corporation. It is subject to federal and provincial corporation taxes, and pays millions of dollars each year in other charges levied by government agencies: airport landing fees, building rentals, and air route fees, for ex- ample. In 1961 alone, this figure was $4.8 million. It is a matter of pride that TCA's record of financial contribution and increasing value to Canadians has been achieved under normal conditions of business operation. How TCA has measured up to the other responsibilities laid upon it by the people of Canada in 1937 oy will be explored later in this series.
