OTTAWA (CP) - The international airport in the capital reopened Wednesday afternoon after a suspicious package emptied the main terminal for about four hours.
Departing flights had been delayed and arriving aircraft were kept away from the airport building while a bomb squad inspected the package found in some checked baggage.
The airport authority was not immediately available for comment on when the backlog in departing flights would be cleared.
