That’s one of the misconceptions, imo. Why does it have to be ‘ACA bargaining capital’? Air Canada should WANT this. A steady supply of trained ATPL pilots. Why are WE, union members fighting for this? It solves the pilot supply issues for BOTH Chorus and AC, and yes us lowly pilots’ career certaint...

Nobody at Jazz wants DOH. Put us at the bottom of the list, give new hires at Jazz an AC number DOH. Hire OTS in between DOH. It affects not one current AC pilot. Hold current vacation allotment and pay for current employees. What am I missing? Chorus and Air Canada are laughing their asses off at u...

Let’s drop everything. Everyone back to the line. No more union negotiating. Let Chorus decide the future. They don’t pay…no one’s coming. They lose the CPA due to being unable to fulfill. AC cancels the CPA. Do you feel chorus would want that? Why are we fighting amongst ourselves, again. That’s wh...

So …will Friday be the big day? Will the MEC finally come through with their winning announcement? Or will” the can be kicked further down the road? We are waiting with bated breath…

This was how I understood it playing out also. Hence the interference allegations and the common employer allegations. It is very complex. How an arbitrator will rule, barring any settlement or mutual agreement, is anyone’s guess. The facts are there. How long will it take is the more pertinent ques...

Any Jazz pilot ‘trying to get on the seniority list’ at AC is doing it through the flow agreement. Which, granted, has/had its shortcomings. Hence the ULP. No senior pilot, of your ‘ex-Jazz’ vintage is trying get on their list. We don’t want their contract or WAWCON. To be junior there is brutal. Ou...

Also, Air Canada actually ‘owns’ 10% of Jazz. Don’t know how much more ‘common’ it could get…well, I guess, about 90%, but still. Can you sight another example of your ‘cost plus CPA’s’ Bede where the other company gave two shits what the others companies bottom line was? I am unaware of any.

Are these submissions public information ? Can anyone access them? Link? What a mess this is turning out to be. I fully expect another ‘can kick’ update at the end of the month.

Wow, … don’t forget…. ‘Never forget where you came from’. Some of us at Jazz, who were hired after 2006 still have 13 years or more to go man, so your comments are a bit harsh tbh. Glad you could get out and get to where you want to be at Mainline…don’t piss on the rest of us or put down Jazz just b...

You guys flowing from jazz? Or OTS?

Jazz?

Thank you prop2jet. Still not nearly enough and no RJ.

Absolutely. Attrition to AC is outstripping hiring in a hurry. Not sustainable. What’s the plan?

Yeah two a month not happening. For sure. And I heard from someone with ties to training there were cxld courses for oct/nov/dec…just word of mouth. I guess we’ll see…
No RJ initials on the sched for October. Just RTW…

Any word on the September class? Is it still a go? What about October/November? I heard they were cancelled? Any truth to that? Cheers,

Well the headline on CTV news is currently at 8:47 “ACwont negotiate with union until they return to work”…. Looks they didn’t get the message. And Stu, really? As a presumably card carrying union member with AC or a major Canadian airline this is how you feel? Don’t you think this sends a unified m...

She should resign immediately. Conflict of interest on the grandest scale. ALPA needs to release a statement in support of this. We need change across the board. The old way of business is dead.

Here we go.

Well that didn’t take long. Good luck Air Canada.

One more thing…AVCANADA mods. Your website ads of Monika Lewinsky and Karoline Levitt with links to photos of them in their bikinis are disgustingly demeaning to women and are part of the argument of the disparity of pay between men and women. Perverts and pedos have too long abused human beings in ...

1000000%! The Flight Attendants are finally standing up against management and the past ‘status quo’ bullshit of this industry and getting what they deserve. I support this entirely. It will only lift the pilots when they next go into bargain shortly. At all airlines. We all deserve more. This is ju...

Just maybe Stu, just maybe…things might change. For the better…CUPE are certainly playing their cards correctly, imo.

Welcome to the union PORTER PILOTS! Well done. Stronger together.

That NDA surely would be expired by now as it did not hold any ‘trade secrets’ and would not have indefinite obligations. The company would have records of their original offer and the CIRB would be compelled to take that into account as evidence. Just my humble, non legal, probably bullshit opinion...

We are at the point, imo, at which either AC eliminates Jazz as an entity by squeezing it out of existence while slowly accumulating all younger pilots who wish to continue their careers at Mainline and at the expense of loosing the experienced ones to the competition or the old man/woman pastures o...
