Also spoke with the Transport Minister of Canada, Stephen McKinnon. And again, our two teams work very closely together. I want to take a moment and just walk through the facts again of what happened. There was a CJR 900 from Montreal here to LaGuardia operated by Air Canada Express and by Jazz. It collided with the Port Authority fire truck at approximately 11:45pm last night. There were 72 passengers on the plane and four crew. Approximately 40 people were sent to the hospital after the crash. Several have also been released. (01:13–01:31)
