Default From the CBC....

The Queen will be the first person to use Winnipeg's new $580-million
airport terminal.

The Winnipeg Airports Authority has a special permit allowing her to arrive
at the yet-to-be finished facility when she and her husband, Prince Philip,
touch down in Winnipeg shortly after noon July 3 for a six-hour visit.

Christine Alongi, spokeswoman for the Winnipeg Airports Authority, said the
WAA worked with the contractor to get a special occupancy permit.

Much of the terminal, which has been under construction since 2007 and is
scheduled to open this fall, is done, but workers are still rushing to do
some final touches.

"Lots of work is going on and has been going on, and people who have had an
opportunity to go through and tour will see that most of the carpet, the
ceiling tiles, the space is nearing completion. So really, we're focusing on
the areas in which the Queen will travel," she said.
