Probably did it to help their current lawsuit against YUL Airport Authority and everyone else they included in that. "See? It happens all the time... there should be more over-run."
Having a standard that pilots lose their licence after making a mistake despite doing no harm to aircraft or passengers means soon you needn't worry about a pilot surplus or pilots offering to fly for free. Where do you get your experience from?

Cue in jetflightinstructor to blame it on AF cutback and furloughs...
Are you serious or pulling my leg?

If you're serious, glad that there were no injuries.
Just some wheels in the mud cutting a corner on a taxiway or an actual overrun?
Which A/C type & runway?

I'm blaming the language barrier.

Hard to believe the investigation will find the crew at fault. The aircraft was pretty much abeam taxiway B2 but pointed in the opposite direction to the taxiway, facing right as opposed to left.
Hopefully it was just a bad day for boeing/air france mtce dept or a mechanical fault.

the current lawsuit is against the GTAA YYZ...not YUL.Probably did it to help their current lawsuit against YUL Airport Authority and everyone else they included in that. "See? It happens all the time... there should be more over-run."
Asking a pilot about what he thinks of Transport Canada, is like asking a fire hydrant what does he think about dogs.

Where's Churchy Laflamme when you need him? Is the best co-peelot of them all, from l'Anse-au-Phoque !!! He WILL find the right taxiway!
Re: This just in; Air France off the end of the runway in YUL...
It was Churchy's day off, T.I. Jacobson was filling in for him.

That would be 'Maudit calisse!!' At least in Canadian French.I bet the last words on the CVR are along the lines of,"I think we can make this turn of" {in French of course}
The strange thing, it looks like he's off the right side of the runway. The taxiway is on the other side.
