WestJet is welcoming Toronto Blue Jays infielder, Ernie Clement as the airline’s newest Toronto Blue Jays player brand ambassador — marking a new chapter in WestJet’s long-standing relationship with Canada’s team.
The partnership reflects WestJet’s continued commitment to community, connection, and a team first culture–values Clement exemplifies both on and off the field.
The partnership with Clement builds on WestJet’s seven-year partnership renewal as the Official Airline of the Toronto Blue Jays, announced in October 2025, and will bring fans closer to the game through new content, experiences and travel-inspired activations throughout the season.
Steph Ng, Vice-President, Brand and Marketing at WestJet Group, said that: “As Canadians gear up for another Toronto Blue Jays season, there’s an undeniable energy that brings fans together from coast to coast.”
Ng continued: “Our partnership with the Blue Jays is central to how WestJet connects those fans, and welcoming Ernie as our newest player ambassador is an exciting next step. He’s a genuine, hardworking teammate whose energy mirrors the pride and passion of WestJetters across Canada.”
Mark Ditmars, Vice-President, Partnerships, Toronto Blue Jays, said: “WestJet has been an incredible partner to the Toronto Blue Jays and our fans. Having Ernie help bring the partnership to life is a natural fit. He embodies the hustle, positivity and love of the game that our fans connect with.”
As a WestJet ambassador, Clement will collaborate with the airline on fan experiences, social storytelling and special campaigns celebrating the passion of Blue Jays fans across Canada.
And the timing couldn’t be more fitting: not only do WestJet and Clement share a passion for teamwork, they also share a special milestone, with both fresh off celebrating their 30th birthdays.
Clement said: “The Toronto Blue Jays have built something special in Canada, and it reminds me a lot of what WestJet has built. It’s all about being a good teammate and caring for one another–and we pair well that way.”
