Even if the CBC news report, faithfully reproduced by the Guv is only partially correct, this incident is quite a story - shades of the Gimli Glider! However, as anyone in Canada interested in aviation knows, the reporting staff at the Holy Mother Corp (that's the CBC to all you non-Canadians) couldn't tell the difference between an A330 and an AS 350. I, for one, am on tenterhooks waiting for some factual details from a reliable source.
