Uh oh...looks like a sore point! Did you know that most of the Canadians who work for one of those "Scumbag" carriers have been forced out of their jobs in Canada by the policy that pretty much decrees that the flag carrier lives at all costs? Hundreds of pilots left Canada because the Government of the day pulled a fast one and made it impossible to compete fairly as a Canadian airline against the National Shame...Well I can safely say that the "Scumbag Airline" that quite a few of these poor buggers work for has paid more than the big red machine ever did, put kids through school, money in banks and kept careers alive, which is more than they were ever gonna get at home...and I'm pretty GD sure that there are NO hyphens attached to their passports, so keep your zenophobic rants out of this thread, it has no place here...and no I don't work for the airline you so clearly refer to...
