The novel coronavirus is changing our appreciation of risk; it has flipped the question of the global aviation sector from surge capacity to viability; and it demonstrates the levels of cultural shift and honest public discussion needed in Canada.

Here is the opportunity to roll-out touchless technologies for identity verification and security clearance, get serious about mm wave scanners and other 'at-a-distance' detectors, and rethink queue management and thus space requirements, writes Mark Salter.
