Officials confirmed there was a minor fuel spill on the tarmac at the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Airport in Montreal on Friday evening
The company said the accident occurred around 7 p.m. when a tanker truck struck a cement pillar.
About 40 litres of fuel was spilled, which both the company and the airport authority described as minor, with two aircraft delayed by the incident. The company is the only supplier of fuel for airlines operating out of Montreal’s cargo airfield in Mirabel and the city’s main airport, Montreal-Trudeau International.
