  1. “Transport minister Omar Alghabra says the government didn’t foresee the surge of travel after Covid.” You have got to be friggin kidding me!!!! Only a total moron could not have seen that after all that Covid bullshit. These Liberals are a scum.

    1. Only a total moron could not have seen that after all that Covid bullshit.

      Are you implying that Omar the Troll’s a genius?

    1. Frank

      You HAVE HIT THE NAIL on the head.

      Big reduction in Avail Pilots due to Mandates + many are in fact suffering from health issues due to the VAXX….same applies to Cabin Crew…but no one will say BOO..

      A VERY Closely guarded “SECRET” in the Entire stinking ARROGANT Industry. Add to that the total Ban on Pure Bloods & you have the current situation.

      Given I have a Senior Pilot in my family, one who stated point blank that Pilots being affected by the vaxx was complete & utter BS in 2021 around the same time my nephew (same family), also pilot, informed me I was persona non grata due to my non vaxxed Status.

      I flippin told them near 2 yrs ago what this was all about to a Deaf and Beyond DUMB audience….& was angrily told point blank, I’M WRONG.

      yea, OK then…

      ZERO sympathy.
      I just don’t give a shit anymore.
      & Sadly, not my family anymore …

      1. This comment is telling: From the NP article

        “..Yet, despite detailed and careful planning, the largest and fastest scale of hiring in our history, as well as investments in aircraft and equipment, it is now clear that Air Canada’s operations too have been disrupted by the industry’s complex and unavoidable challenges…”

        Now WHY in the World would there all of a Sudden be a “Massive Hiring effort”..???

        I cannot Fathom the Reason…../sarc off

        They wanted us and still do, want us all dead.

        1. Let me guess: all those Roxham Roadrunners are qualified airline pilots?

  2. How much of this is the direct result of snivel servants refusing to go into work? The NDP and Liberal regime have destroyed the public’s faith and trust in the public service that we’re forced to fund and they’ve become bloated -incompetent and appear to answer to no one least of all “We the people”.

    1. Yep, there is some of that as well: Security and all those who toil at our airports…ALL fell under the mandate BS.

      This is also a massively Self induced Disaster by Airline CEO’s who have a tendency to be Arrogant Sons of Bitches at the best of times….the Vid/VAx was a golden opportunity for them to crap all over the pilots & cabin crews…and they did so with RELISH, just like most other Companies – Corporations in the Country.

      Why then would AC/WJ go on massive hiring sprees..??
      Only one reason….Not Enough staff and its 1000% Due to The Vid and Vaxx BS.
      They now ALL reap their “benefits”

  3. Maybe if the government would leave businesses alone and let the market decide. Air Canada is a bloated, heavily subsidized dinosaur. Much like the government. Amazing that they can’t see past the end of their nose.

    1. That is only a fraction of the problem.

      The bigger issue is the incompetent Rumpelstiltskin.

  4. This is the federal government’s fault. 100%. End of story. Canada is being run into the ground by the intellectual equivalent of a high school student council who just happens to control its own Gestapo.

    1. But in this case, Canada’s ‘student council’ consists mostly of stoner-slackers led by socially/emotionally damaged loner gammas with serious anger/control/bullying/mommy issues.

      It’s hard to imagine any functional high-school administration or student body voluntarily choosing such a crew, but then again this IS Canada…

  5. This is a feature not a bug.
    Don’t allow them the cover of ineptitude.

    This is what happens when you sovietize a nation on the road to building back better.

  6. Looks like their “models” were as accurate as their Climate and Covid models.
    I cannot believe the arrogance and incompetence. How did we elect these morons? They have no qualifications, little intelligence, and even less work ethic.
    And they think they are in leadership because they are some sort of elites.
    I have never been as flabbergasted by leadership as I am now. We often hear the comparison to Student Councils. That is grossly unfair to Student Councils, who often are at least aware when they mess up and things go badly. And they are willing to say “We made a mistake” and change course.
    For Canada, the first thing that comes out of Dear Leader’s pot-addled brain on any topic is national policy for the next 4 years, regardless of the cost or consequences.
    May God intervene in our country. Please.

    1. first timer, your second sentence tells you why, the voters are their equals. No qualifications, little intelligence, and no work ethic. The country is boing supported by less than half the population, the rest are at the trough and produce nothing except grief for free Canadians.

  7. As if Pearson wasn’t a big enough pain in the ass before all of this started. Gawd how I hate that place!!

  8. Why not just have police arrest 25 people from each flight so you can keep under the weight limit for the aircraft? Be sure to tell the cops that the sleeping passengers you selected were unruly.

  9. “Our Models Didn’t Predict This”

    Yeah, they did predict this.
    This is exactly what they want.

    Destroy the economy, blame capitalism, and impose Marxist insanity.

  10. Don’t imagine for a moment that this is unintentional. Our government and institutions are dominated by persons who believe that ordinary citizens shouldn’t be mobile, and that air travel is too destructive to the environment to be permitted, let alone encouraged. Our Prime Minister has repeatedly, openly expressed envy of China’s power to transform their nation with the powers inherent in their “basic dictatorship”. He envies their omnipresent, cradle-to-grave surveillance systems, and their electronic health passports.

    By allowing a crisis in transportation to deepen over the holliday season, the government can build a consensus to “fix” it with a new, electronic passport and vaccine status system, which I believe is their ultimate goal.

    It has worked out great for the communists in China, who can immobilize people by simply using the contact tracing system to turn citizens’ health status from green to red. This prevents them from using planes and trains, and renders them subject to arrest if they try to travel by car. This has already been done to short-circuit a planned demonstration over people’s bank accounts being frozen. (https://www.reuters.com/world/china/china-bank-protest-stopped-by-health-codes-turning-red-depositors-say-2022-06-14/)

    Right now, the government has deputized 429 special constables to supplement the RCMP and Ottawa police personnel already working to lock down the city for the Canada Day weekend, in fear of protests against vaccine mandates. They have shown in the case of Tamara Lich that they’re willing to use pre-emptive detention to prevent people from showing up at protests. During the Rolling Thunder protest, police were turning away or even detaining any drivers who had too many Canadian flags visible on their vehicles when they tried to enter the city through any of the principal exits off the Queensway.

    Imagine how much simpler it would be if they could just monitor social media, and immobilize likely protestors by flagging their health passports. They might not be able to stop people from driving inter-provincially, but a simple demand to see your health passport status would give police officers cause to detain you if they thought you looked like a freedom convoy supporter.

    1. In the former Soviet Union, it was not unheard of that violent criminals would elude arrest for more ideological offenders.

      And here we are.

  11. The whole point is to limit and then eliminate travel.

    Canadians let fat hogs take their gas, travel, food and everything else.

    Who gets fooled by a snowboard instructor and Rumpelstiltskin? Canadians do.

  12. All of this chaos and pain was deliberately orchestrated. Politicians and bureaucrats knowingly made moves that would create this result. Only idiots like Tom et. al. will try to convince you that this is all beneficial for us.
