The government in Nunatsiavut, the Inuit region in Atlantic Canada, is extending its financial assistance for medical flights to and from the region. “By extending this agreement, LGH will be able to continue providing two extra medical flights per week,” Nunatsiavut President Johannes Lampe said in a news release on Friday. The extra flights will continue to be on Tuesdays and Thursdays. “The Nunatsiavut Government is pleased to partner with LGH to make these extra flights possible to lessen the burdens often placed on those who have to travel to Happy Valley-Goose Bay for medical purposes,” Lampe said. The extra flights are slated to continue up to March 31, 2023.
