Co-chief executive officer Jamie Porteous said the company benefitted from interest rate cuts and cooling inflation.

Porteous said these factors are helping foster a more stable and optimistic economic outlook for Canada.

However, he added that geopolitical uncertainty is affecting the entire transportation industry and that Cargojet is not immune to significant cost increases facing aviation companies and supply chains.
