MONTREAL—Transport Minister Marc Garneau has cleared his schedule for the day in order to meet with his civil aviation expert panel on how to deal with the issue of Boeing’s 737 Max 8 aircraft, which is being grounded or banned from a growing number of countries.
The 737 Max 8 continues to fly in North American skies, but faces grounding orders or airspace bans from all of Europe as well as Australia, China and other states in the wake of the Ethiopian Airlines crash that killed 157 people Sunday.
