Air Canada

could any pro out there give me the low down on the working conditions at AC? I'm in the holding pool at the moment and trying to decide if leaving a major charter airline in the UK is the right move or not. Great country is Canada, I miss the way of life but is it worth the return????
Cheers

They're going through some transitionary pains at the moment(due to the Airlines(Canadien),and pilot 'merge'and a downturn of the economy),consequently the 'new'pilot hiring has been deferred at the moment,until Sept'..
Once in, its the best paying job in Canada!!

Thanks M&V, I've been told about the transition period and the economy.I'm curious about the time frame of Sept? Have you heard this from reliable sources? Could you give me an indication of the overall working conditions. Leave, numbers of hrs in a mo, days off etc. Anything would help as I must make a huge choice in the future. Britain or Canada!!
Cheers eh!
