Tourism Minister Caroline Proulx announced on TVA Nouvelles on Tuesday an investment of $10 million to create new international flights.

This money will be injected into Quebec and Montreal, and is already bearing fruit, since Wednesday will mark the first flight from Quebec to London, provided by Air Transat. Tuesday will be the day of the first Air France flight to Quebec from Paris.

According to Quebec, between 700,000 and one million travelers will pass through the province this year.

"I don't like transfers, I want them to go directly to the city they have chosen," said the Minister of Tourism.
