A quote from Antoine Leclerc-Loiselle, spokesman for the CNESST

An investigation could be launched CNESST. First, it is necessary to determine [si l’employé travaillait pour] an entity under provincial or federal jurisdiction, considering it happened on an airport property. We should know more details on Monday.says Mr. Leclerc-Loiselle.

If the man worked for a federal company, the investigation would instead be transferred to the Transportation Safety Board of Canada.
