Troff,
I'm not sure what your work experience is of CX, EK, Korean, or tuk tuks, but having worked for airlines in Canada and now overseas, Canadian aviation is a lost cause.
As for CX being about as good as a tuktuk driver and as Canadian as EK or Korean this is where you show your true ignorance. CX is actually Canadian, or Australian, or British or German or New Zealand or HK Chinese. Just depends on where you're based. Although the company head quarters are in Hong Kong, every based pilot is an employee of a company in that particular country. With all the tax, labor, union and employment rules associated with that country. So actually, Cathay is a lot more Canadian than EK or Korean.
I'd rather be a tuk tuk driver for CX, than a pilot for a Canadian based airline.
Enjoy your Canadian furlough, or down grade. IT WILL HAPPEN!!
