According to an article published today in the foremost online aviation news portal Airporthaber.com (translates to airportnews), Capt. Ennis was not accepted to fly with Turkish Airlines. The article states that the ordeal was discussed extensively in international aviation forums (I wonder where... ) and some users stated that he had already started flying Boeing 777's for Turkish. However, according to the article, based on Turkish Airlines sources the Canadian pilot was not able to pass the recruitment phases necessary for employment and the application was rejected.
This is probably not true ..... It's obvious that the Turks realize that in a short time he will be back with AC and so they will not get a return on their investment. Also with all the unrest in the region, travel is down. Given the Globe and Mail article, his acceptance by Turkish was doomed.
