The Program removes significant barriers to flight training faced by Indigenous students including cost and location and honors the importance of retaining a deep connection to Indigenous culture while training.\n \n\n The Program was initially established in 2022 in Thompson, Manitoba and was expanded to Rankin Inlet, Nunavut in 2024 which is the first and only of its kind in Nunavut. With the completion of the acquisition of Canadian North which expands our footprint in Nunavut, the doubling of the capacity of the Program in Nunavut for next year was an obvious and natural choice for EIC and consistent with the Corporation’s history of investing in the communities we serve.\n \n\n “We take seriously our responsibility to invest in the regions which we serve. This is why we originally expanded the Program to Rankin Inlet where it has been remarkably successful with the first student starting to fly for us this year and five others will be completing their training in 2026 with jobs waiting for them at our airlines,” stated Mike Pyle, CEO of EIC. He continued, “With the acquisition of Canadian North we are thrilled to be materially expanding the Program in Nunavut and see many more Inuit joining our companies as pilots. Through this expansion we will not only invest in the assets needed in Nunavut to support the Program’s growth but also invest in the Inuit living in the communities. They are our future pilots. These types of investments are a cornerstone of who is EIC is, how we operate and what will continue to drive our success operating in the North.”\n \n\n\n About Exchange Income Corporation\n \n\n Exchange Income Corporation is a diversified acquisition-oriented company, focused in two segments: Aerospace & Aviation and Manufacturi...
