Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Hey Cal2, That incident had NOTHING to do with the fact that there are unions at Air Canada, but rather the policy from Corp. Headquarters to get the flight out on time… so blame the higher heads for the rule… oh, are you a “higher head”??
westjets flight made it out on time with passengers going on 15 minutes before. AirCanada shut the gate at one hour before.
I know how the union workers love to stand on policy as much they like to stand around. Sometimes they are the managements best friend.
Flyerguy:
You have to understand, you DO NOT deserve the same treatment as the Pilots.
F/A’s are a dime a dozen.
They line-up for blocks at “Cattle Drives” to be hired. There is almost zero requirement, essentially walk right out of High School.
Just as the Pilot’s don’t deserve the same treatment as the CEO etc. Understand that there is a ‘food chain’ in life and F/A’s are (due to the education requirements etc) a long way down.
Now..that doesn’t mean you do not have an important job and get a fair renumeration. Certainly working in a Union environment, for a legacy Carrier like Air Canada you are MORE than fairly compensated for doing a job that you could be replaced in a heart beat.
