I heard on the AM radio this morning that they are starting a sched in early Feb 2009 from COLD LAKE to CALGARY. Sounds like they might need to take those 4 pilots back...

Yours,

I'm just reading the news. FWIW, almost all I know about what's been happening up there in the last couple of months has come from CBC with a trickle of word of mouth.

Your call sign gets to be Polaris. Other than that I got nothing for you.
