We should have been up big on this. It's an up front payment and 12 monthly payments. It means Sparrow is running and so the concerns of last quarter are not being carried forward. Successful execution of this contract will lead to others. This is very big news.

Yup... people are sleeping. They're not paying attention to what matters and they freak out over things that they shouldn't... shortens getting to their brain. Look at all the stakeholders implicated in this project...

I totally agree! It's a clear validation of the merits and technology when so many stakeholders get together for such an initiative. Great point

Do we know what routes are still active? 2 *DSV, Stellaten, ... Are the other First Nation routes terminated or still active? Thanks.

As far as I know, no routes have terminated their contracts yet. Most are perpetual, like some of the local Ontario ones like Milton, I think. The Quebec ones haven't started yet, as per my call to Drones Express a few months ago.

See the most recent quarter's MD&A; the two first nations contracts ended without renewal (whatever; they were basically test cases). I'm hopeful the UBC/Stellaten one will lead to many more in BC. The DSV operations are still going strong; I expect they'll expand that partnership, especially when Condor starts up.
