Narrative:An Embraer ERJ-175 (C-FRQN) operated by Jazz, was on an instrument flight rules flight JZA8642 from Montreal/Pierre Elliott Trudeau Airport, Quebec (CYUL) to New York-LaGuardia Airport, NY (KLGA). Shortly after the pushback, the crew was instructed by the apron control to move forward, straight ahead, approximately 10 meters. The right winglet of C-FRQN contacted the underside of the wing tip of N774XF, an American Airlines Airbus A319 that was stationary after completing its pushback in preparation for a flight to Charlotte Douglas International Airport, NC (KCLT) as flight AA1350. Both aircraft returned to a gate and the passengers were deplaned. The right wing of C-FRQN was slightly damaged. The trailing edge of the left wing of N774XF was damaged and a static unloader on the left wing separated.
