Thank you for joining. But multiculturalism is not a melting pot. It portrays unity, but it creates ethnic enclaves and opens up loopholes for governments and corporations to exploit.
@JamCan6322 multiculturalism is another form of racism they just used that to replace black people in the work work.instead of hiring a black you employ a indian or a Filipino .they won't talking about multiculturalism when black people start coming to canada.
I remember when Westjet first started flying. They beat out air cananda with price, service and convince. Over the last 10 plus years, they have turned into air canada. Overpriced, no service, and total inconvenience. The last time l flew with westjet l paid $20 for a snack that was spoiled, mouldy, and a flight attendant that suggested l eat around it. I would rather walk than ever board either of those airlines again.
I'm with you on this one. I fly to the East, and they don't even charge me for 2 pieces of luggage. And in the West, I have to pay through my nose. To charge for carry-on is a disgrace. What's next, they're going to ask us to travel naked?
Remember when Rogers and Bell Canada charged us nearly a dollar per text🤣😂. Up until 2015 our cellphone bills were hundreds of dollars while the Americans paid next nothing after the Canadian conversion rate.
In the U.S., American Airlines is the worst company in the world. I hope they go out of business. The price of groceries will continue to go up. We are becoming a world of haves and have nots.
It looks like the transport minister is a little to happy about the added cost of travel. Do l see a condescending smirk on her face or is it my imagination.
Probably! However, the airlines have been nickle and diming us since the pandemic. They've used the chaos to cut the meat off the bones and started to squeeze us
Recently, I have to travel a lot because of an ailing family member. I’m taking a break from visiting them this holiday season because of the number Air Canada has done on me. This airline takes pride in poor service and offering you 25% off vouchers if you qualify for your troubles. It’s AWFUL that we are subjected this cyclic abuse with no promise of change.
Canadians paid double price for flights to China because in 2021 the authorities limited the number of flights operated by Chinese carriers to Canada to two scheduled round-trip passenger flights a week, raised the following year to six. These orders also prohibited non-stop flights.
I always have a great meal before a flight, outside of the airport. I am never hungry during a flight. Now with the damn carry on that we are getting charged for??? And the government will just do a lot of gum flapping, trying to justify their position and get paid.
Westjet weight machine at the airport is also tempered to show 2kg more than actual weight and charges extra, Recently, they changed $100 for 2 kg extra for my check-in bag for the bag, which was a 23kg check at home. We are going through the lowest point of Canadian life due to stupid, lethargic, and spineless political leaders who don't have balls to save Canadian from the monopoly of airlines, banks, food & phone companies.
I think we need to address airport fees as well. I recently bought a return flight toronto to India for $2200....$1100 was airport fees between pearson international and indira gandhi international
We should make a you been ripped off album.You know on repeat you been ripped off you been ripped off. We could invest the profits in foam rubber so we could have something to fall back on.
Air Canada horrible. I traveled with my sister in law and her young son and she had a small bag type carry on and the attendant wouldn’t let her past the gate at time of boarding, meanwhile I passed with a larger carryon no problem. My sister in law explained she has her legal documents inside the bag from her ex husband allowing permission to travel with her son and her undergarments she’s not going to put it inside the planes cargo in case it gets lost or she’s asked as they’re legal documents for her son to travel with her. She asked them if they have a small bag she could at least put it inside . They said no, she took everything out of the bag and me , her and her son carried them in our hands into the plane and threw the empty carryon bag at them saying here put it inside the cargo now. We then put it inside my carryon afterwards meanwhile there was lots of vacant space in the overhead above our seats.
I'm telling you, they are becoming very bad, and trust me, I guarantee their cargo space is not full. But they want to make money on lighter loads while charging us extra. I feel your pain.
Never! They've owed me over $500 since march 2020. I've done everything humanly possible to get back my money. Between them & BMO, they have only been giving me the finger!
Right? Extortion is not capitalism.. Baggage is worse in EU too .. my one bag for West Jet was $105...if I didn't balance it into the other bag... and then same luggage air france was like $200 or $300?? $200 something... unreal.. checkered dress girl and I are twins lol the hair .. she is funny poor thing. I refuse.... use your dollars and refuse..... buy business class minimal and have it included ... or don't go .. USE the POWER of your dollar..

Hello, when will the Aviation minister wake up from the sleep. I would love to see the Canadians this time to take responsibility in choosing the government. Almost 50% of the salary is gone by some form of direct and indirect taxes and this is what we get in services from our minister's office. I would say Canada is moving in the path of 3rd world and developing nation. Government by the People- For the people is actually government for the crooks in the elected government who serve the corporates. Nothing is going well in this country, so big country, good economy and less people and still struggling.

The federal government taxes the heck out of these airlines. Of course, that'll mean they will fleece the customers.
Why do we pay so much taxes in Canada when Canada produces so much oil and minerals?

Big time
I agree with you 100%.. I just bought a ticket today from Air Canada to Montego Bay in January month end, $1100 ... it's insane 😢
$1100.00! What for, there's noway I'm spending that. O ey to travel 4 hours

Trust me, they couldn't even care about us. More likely, the pension fund is invested in the airlines.
I say the price of an airline ticket should be by the kilogram... Yourself+baggage weight multiplied by the flight rate = your ticket price.
Very interesting, so I would pay more because of my size? 😆
@JamCan6322 you would pay based on total weight being moved.... Whether the weight is in your baggage or your ass. Like when you ship something.
The upcoming large interest rate cut is going to create higher inflation impacting the working class.
Absolutely! This will, of course, increase the prices of houses. Welcome to the race to the bottom
So true say WHY?🇨🇦
Glad their getting rid of carryons. I’ve never travelled with one. 🎉🎉🎉❤❤
