After it was announced Monday that Air Canada CEO Michael Rousseau plans to retire from his position — a week after he was criticized for an English-only condolence message following the crash of an Air Canada jet at LaGuardia Airport — Prime Minister Mark Carney claimed, “It’s the right decision.”

“It is essential that the next CEO of Air Canada is bilingual… That should have gone without saying,” Carney remarked on Monday.

Last week, Carney criticized Rousseau’s English-only message, saying he was “very disappointed” in the Air Canada CEO.

Rousseau has been the CEO of Air Canada since February 2021.
