This enactment implements in Canada the Convention for the
Unification of Certain Rules for International Carriage by Air signed at
Montreal in 1999 (the ``Montreal Convention''). The Montreal
Convention consolidates and modernizes the rules of the Warsaw
Convention and associated documents. It provides for unlimited
liability for damages in the case of death or injury to passengers arising
out of accidents during international air carriage, simplifies ticketing
requirements, provides for electronic documentation and establishes a
new jurisdiction that will allow most passengers to bring actions in the
place of their domicile.
