Sonic could (from a legal standpoint) argue, perhaps successfully, in court to get their OC back unless TC has evidence to backup allegations that were brought forward to an airline inspector by "friends of friends" of Sonic guys.
It is imperative that the pilots recognize that perhaps some stuff they might have done wasn't legal but they SHOULD recognize that it NEEDS to be reported to TC ASAP.
Currently, as well all know, Sonic is under investigation by TC. However, certain allegations came up well before this accident and a file was started. When TC went to investigate they couldn't find anything at all! They need the pilot who told their friend who told an inspector.
A buddy at work told me that their friend is a line pilot with a company who was authorizing an airplane to fly when it didn't meet MEL requirements. The pilot called TC who apparently were going to arrange something. The problem is now fixed and no longer a severe hazzard to flight crew and passengers. It's this sort of thing that aviation needs - a recognizance of what's wrong and what's right - the problem and what's necessary to correct it.
For ex-Sonic guys, simply ranting in media won't hold up in court for TC so you need to contact an inspector in the Regional Director's Office - Pacific Region, Civil Aviation. They will collect your information to verify your position in case this is used as evidence.
You could be framed as a whistle blower but TC is recognizing the fact that many things go off radar due to pilots not reporting it when they should. Remember, it's not just you as pilots out there hoping for a safe flight. It's all those people who fly ON the airplanes and who pay your wages that are DEMANDING safety!!

According to the latest news report, in order for Rexair to get their OC back TC needs to do an audit but the offices are all locked up. So why are they in court if thats the case? Are they arguing that, because "they" feel they're not responsible for the accident that they should get their OC back without being subject to an audit?
The Vancouver Sun wrote:Transport Canada spokesman Rod Nelson noted Monday that a full audit of the company's operations -- a process that normally takes five or six weeks -- hasn't yet occurred. He said the company has not contacted Transport Canada to ask it to proceed with the audit.
Finlay confirmed Monday the airline's office is still closed.

Before you contact anyone that works under the Regional Director in the Pacific Region TCCA you should have a good look at what I have concerning this person.
It may make a great difference in your career in aviation, or maybe lack thereof.

The hardest thing about flying is knowing when to say no
After over a half a century of flying no one ever died because of my decision not to fly.
