Striker, do you live under a rock? Air Canada has been private company since Pontius was a pilot, but the Government has handicapped them with conditions such as "the headquarters must be in Quebec" Its WJ who can operate in a true free market, not AC . I'm always amazed that so many of our fellow Canadians just know SO little about our nation, but then they did put "Junior" into the PMs seat which tells you how bloody dumb they are, lets not even talk about Ontario and their choice! PS, "Pool parts "come with standard prices, normally through specialised companies and most airlines are members of "parts pools", so no, there is little if any price gouging, but you can carry on seeing bogy men out to get West Jet if you wish.
