Governance at YYC

In Canada’s aviation industry, policies and regulations play an important role in ensuring safe and efficient air travel, and in maintaining operational excellence. The Calgary Airport Authority, our Board of Directors and our Executive Team are committed to maintaining the highest standards of corporate governance, and continue to evolve our governance systems in light of changing practices, expectations and legal requirements.

The composition of our Board reflects the diversity of the communities we serve, through the experience, skills, culture and gender of our directors. These leaders have the business acumen and experience to provide governance over the affairs of The Authority.

The Directors are appointed by four organizations:

  • Long-Range Planning Committee of the Calgary Chamber of Commerce
  • City of Calgary
  • Federal Government
  • Rocky View County

Our directors are appointed to a four-year term and are eligible for re-appointment for one additional term for a maximum of eight years. To view our Board of Directors, click here.

The Board meets as often as is required to carry out its responsibilities in addition to maintaining four standing committees, which are ultimately accountable to the Board. The committees and their respective chairs as of Dec. 31, 2023 were:

  • Audit & Finance: Donald (Don) Cormack
  • People, Governance & Nominating: Jina Abells Morissette
  • Commerical & Property: Phillip (Phil) J. Scheibel
  • Safety & Operational Resiliency: David Blom

Each of the four standing committees has a Terms of Reference approved by the Board, an annual work plan and a Chair who reports back to the Board on the committee's activities. The Chairs of the Board of Directors and the People, Governance and Nominating Committee ensure the Board's independence is respected and preserved.

The Authority strives to achieve an optimal level of public and stakeholder accountability through a communications and stakeholder relations program, which includes processes associated with communicating to the general public, industry stakeholders, governments, appointers and Authority employees (YYC Crew). The processes involved in achieving this level of accountability include:

  • A public annual general meeting (AGM)
  • A published annual report, including audited financial statements
  • An independent review of management operations and financial performance every five years, including a published report
  • Annual meetings with all appointers, which are attended by the Board of Directors, senior management and external auditors
  • Compliance with the Canada Lease
  • Regulatory compliance
  • Meetings with key stakeholders
  • Public notice of fee changes, including Airport Improvement Fee (AIF)
  • A community consultative committee
  • A noise management program
  • An accessibility advisory council
  • Meetings with airport operators and tenants
  • Meetings with civic officials and community organizations
