Air Canada has announced plans to terminate more than 629 flight attendants
and permanently close its flight attendant bases in Halifax and
Winnipeg.
Meanwhile, Robert Milton and Air Canada President Montie Brewer
are trying to enlist the federal government as a partner in this venture.
Air Canada has asked Ottawa for a special exemption from the law so the
airline can short change the flight attendants who will lose their
jobs.
Air Canada believes that a family flight pass is adequate compensation for
the loss of a job with no possibility of recall for employees with as much
as 30 years of service.
Please take action right away. A decision on Air Canada’s request is
due any day now. Once you have sent your message, please forward this
