  1. RE: flipboard.com/@cbcnews/edmonto

    I'm only ~186cm tall, and this is a problem I've struggled with for my entire adult life.

    My knees are often tender or partially bruised at the end of a flight, and I can usually feel the weight of the person in front of me pushing against my knees through the seat materials - they can never lean their chair back, my legs physically won't allow it.

    Oh, and this is all on the "standard" planes, not these extra tight ones.

  3. @chrystia-freeland.bsky.social Why is Transport Canada still advertising Twitter / X? tc.canada.ca/en How does advertising for #Twitter support Canadian democracy? This is a simple step, but an important symbolic one. #Goverment #Canada #TransportCanada

  4. #Canadian #TransportationAgency has issued a $97,500 penalty to #AirCanada after a #BritishColumbia man was forced to drag himself off a flight – and the #airline could be facing a lawsuit next.

    #PrinceGeorge resident Rodney Hodgins, who has #CerebralPalsy and uses a motorized #wheelchair for mobility, was put in the uncomfortable position last August after Air Canada's third-party ground assistance personnel were unavailable to help him off his flight in Las Vegas.

  5. This week, Air Canada cancelled many of its Calgary flights. (Edmonton & Ottawa lost AC and WestJet flights.) One excuse the airlines used was a pilot shortage. Is the pilot shortage real? What is driving it? Here, hot off the digital presses, is my new column for Alberta Views on the skilled labour shortages bedeviling our entire transportation sector. albertaviews.ca/not-enough-pil #AirCanada #WestJet #CN #CPKC #Porter #pilots #TransportCanada #TRCM #SenateofCanada #Canada #Calgary #yyc #yeg #yow
