Re: Mandatory Retirement Repeal Passes 2nd Reading in Parlia
Those are the facts, albeit with a lot of “if‘s , could and most likely” here and there, but as Ray is smarter than me he must be right. My guess as to what happens, The law changes next Nov to no more mandatory retirement (that's a given) Over the next year Air Canada pulls out the big guns and arg...

Re: Mandatory Retirement Repeal Passes 2nd Reading in Parlia
Trying to understand Ray, How can you.... If those terminations occurred prior to the legislative change coming into force (November, 2012) and if the Tribunal and/or the Courts find that the terminations violated the law prior to its formal repeal ....violate a law prior to it becoming law? If it h...

Good point, by the way how many are post age 65 airlines?The issue is no longer which carriers in Canada are age 65 airlines, but rather which ones are not? Only 1
Just asking.

Re: Mandatory Retirement Repeal Passes 2nd Reading in Parlia
Ok I follow you so far.... But don't you still run into a problem when someone works past 65 because of the ICAO over under rule? as in up to a 65 limit no problem but if Capts become F/O's at 66 doesn't the undue hardship re appear based on sked problems due to 2 in the cockpit over 60? ????? 29che...

Re: Mandatory Retirement Repeal Passes 2nd Reading in Parlia
OK so I'm a little mixed up but my question stands would the decision have been different had AC been saying 65 instead of 60 The Tribunal, in the Thwaites case, found that Air Canada failed to meet its onus to demonstrate that keeping pilots over age 60 employed would cause it undue hardship. would...

Re: Mandatory Retirement Repeal Passes 2nd Reading in Parlia
Not really what I asked but I see what you are trying to say. Correct me if i'm wrong but I thought the BFOR argument failed [429] At the end of it all, my opinion is that Air Canada has not met the burden of proving that it will suffer undue hardship with the elimination of the age 60 retirement ru...

Re: Mandatory Retirement Repeal Passes 2nd Reading in Parlia
Ah but if 60 was the old normal what is the new normal????The normal age of retirement is the last issue, and it has gone to JR. As will each and every case from all parties.
just wondering?
