AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoAviation & Tourism: Air Canada will launch a new weekly nonstop Quebec City–Pointe-à-Pitre route, operating every Thursday from Dec. 17, 2026 to April 8, 2027, adding 17 round-trips in winter on an Airbus A220-300—another boost for eastern Canada’s access to Guadeloupe. Regional Connectivity: LIAT (2020) and Air Caraïbes signed an interline deal letting passengers book one itinerary on a single ticket, with checked baggage through—linking LIAT’s Eastern Caribbean network with Air Caraïbes’ Guadeloupe/Martinique/French Guiana services and its Paris-Orly connection. Health & Accountability: France’s National Assembly voted unanimously to repeal the Code Noir, but coverage also highlights the gap between symbolism and action; separately, Parliament adopted a bill recognizing the French state’s “share of responsibility” in the chlordecone scandal affecting Guadeloupe and Martinique, with decontamination and compensation frameworks on the agenda. Energy & Industry: France’s energy regulator CRE selected five Corsica storage projects (about 48 MW total), with battery costs reported lower than in Guadeloupe and other islands—useful context for local energy planning. Maritime & Environment: France announced new marine protection zones, including one in Guadeloupe to protect coral reefs and sea turtles, pushing protected waters to 14.68% and aiming for 14.8% by year-end.
