It was an exciting day in Regina! I was pleased to explore mutually-beneficial economic opportunities for Saskatchewan and the Dominican Republic with Ambassador @JoseBlanco. We visited the Global Transportation Hub and the @UofRegina and met with representatives from @MosaicCompany and @FlyYQR. I would particularly like to thank @wkaeding for introducing the two of us at Saskatchewan's Legislative Assembly.

Agenda Saskatchewan 📍 Como parte de la agenda de trabajo orientada a fortalecer la conectividad en el ámbito bilateral, el embajador @JoseBlanco sostuvo encuentros con representantes de autoridades aeroportuarias de Saskatchewan, con miras a impulsar los intercambios institucionales, así como los flujos de pasajeros y comercio entre la República Dominicana y la provincia. En la ciudad de Saskatoon, el embajador sostuvo una reunión con la Sra. CJ Dushinski, vicepresidenta de Desarrollo de Negocios de la Autoridad Aeroportuaria de Saskatoon 🏙️, en la que se abordó la relevancia de la conectividad aérea ✈️ y del desarrollo de rutas para fortalecer el turismo 🌴 y los negocios 💼 entre ambos países. De igual modo, el embajador Blanco participó en un encuentro con el Sr. James Bogusz, presidente y director ejecutivo de la Autoridad Aeroportuaria de Regina, que permitió ponderar la importancia de la conectividad aérea en el marco de la dinámica relación bilateral, así como las oportunidades para fortalecer los vínculos entre ambos países y otras latitudes regionales. En ese contexto, se manifestó la disposición de esta Misión Diplomática de facilitar acercamientos 🤝 y distintas modalidades de cooperación 🤲 entre las instituciones competentes del sector en ambas jurisdicciones, con miras a fortalecer la conectividad, el turismo y el comercio bilateral. @MIREXRD @FlyYQR @yxe_ca

Welcome to the Board, James Bogusz. The CAC is pleased to welcome James, President and CEO of the Regina Airport Authority, as a newly elected Director and Chair of the Small Airports Caucus.

Can you help us give @FlyYQR's (newly promoted) Director of Human Resources & Culture, Tiara Lupanko, the BIGGEST round of applause for being named one of @ABToday's 2025 #40under40?! 👏👏👏 The 2025 list of honourees is filled with innovative, courageous, strong, intelligent and industry-shaping aviation professionals. ✈️ "In just three years with the Regina Airport Authority, Tiara Lupanko has redefined what modern HR leadership looks like within aviation. As Director of Human Resources, she has rebuilt trust, revitalized engagement, and embedded a people-first culture across the organization. Reporting directly to the CEO, Lupanko has provided strategic guidance on key initiatives while ensuring employees feel heard, valued, and supported. Lupanko led a full overhaul of the Authority’s HR program, implementing a new pay equity plan, overhauling union classifications, and negotiating a six-year collective bargaining agreement. She also launched an employee recognition program and developed recurring staff events and engagement surveys that have delivered results well above expectations. Her work has elevated morale, strengthened collaboration, and established a renewed sense of shared purpose across the airport community. Motivated by a desire to foster positive, inclusive workplaces, Lupanko’s passion for people stems from her own early experiences in challenging environments. She is deeply committed to ensuring employees feel proud and excited to come to work each day. “Our people are the heart of everything we do,” she says. “When they thrive, the entire operation performs at its best.” An active participant in industry events and a strong advocate for employee wellness, Lupanko continues to inspire others—especially women pursuing leadership roles in aviation—through her authenticity, empathy, and dedication to building stronger teams." —Joe Petrie, Editor & Chief, Aviation Business Read the full article and view the list of other honourees when you sign up for free: bit.ly/4qghXdg
