Air Inuit flight AIE854, a DHC-8-314, contacted a parked DHC-8-102 (C-FDAO) at Tasiujaq Airport (CYTQ), QC

The first officer then saw the ground guide pointing to the right wing tip, indicating contact between the wing tip of C-GXAI and the rudder of C-FDAO, which was nearby and undergoing maintenance.
