30. The Issue
Is larger than flights to Cuba. Although that may be one of the high priority points.

The issue is who owns the rights up above.

The requirement means that flights taking off in Canada to another Canadian destination, but overflying a US projected airspace, will have to meet these requirements.

So the objective is obvious. Another move by the Empire.
