Consultations?!?

Shouldn't it be a Crown inquiry into the #wagetheft and #exploitation of Canadians in the industry?

If the government is truly aware of the allegations, then they know the allegations go back AT LEAST as far as the Harper government... that means it spans decades... let's hear from every single one of them.

Government of Canada launches consultations on unpaid work in the airline sector

Flight attendants play a critical role in keeping Canadian passengers and airline crew safe as they travel.

^{Employment and Social Development Canada (Government of Canada)}

Didn't the Canadian public just give Air Canada $5.9B in a covid bailout the year before their execs got these salaries in 2022?

From Ben Thomson on X:
"Air Canada Executive salaries:
CEO M.Rousseau: $12.38 Million
CFO A.Kazzaz: $3.1 Million
COO C.Landry: $2.93 Million
CCO L.Guillemette: $2.74 Million
Exec VP A.Meloul-Wechsler: $2.0 Million

Full-time entry-level AC flight attendant earns LESS than minimum wage (27k/year before tax)

CEO makes 458x more than entry-level flight attendant

Time for AC executives to take a large pay cut"

Other arrangements could be made for Air Canada customers, this was an unnecessary move by the federal government.

"The Liberals are violating our Charter rights to take job action and give Air Canada exactly what they want -- hours and hours of unpaid labour from underpaid flight attendants, while the company pulls in sky-high profits and extraordinary executive compensation,” said CUPE Air Canada Component president Wesley Lesosky in the release."
