As an English-speaking Quebecer (100% bilingual), I agree. There should’ve been a statement in French as well as English, especially given one of the pilots was French. I don’t expect my opinion to be the norm West of Ottawa. That said, the guy shouldn’t lose his job or feel he needs to resign over it.

@kpac_15 @nxd1979 Are you telling me the fucking Air Canada ceo was the best and brightest? AC did terrible under him; he was about to go regardless. For someone who doesn't give a shit, you sure are vocal about how french should be removed from Canada's official languages. Touch some grass.

@QcPamplemousse @nxd1979 Again. No one outside of your province gives a shit, it’s not a topic, it’s not discussed, no one cares. And the fact you’d chase out the best and brightest to prove your point is exactly why your province is have not.

@kpac_15 @nxd1979 Fun fact, 60% of that 18% bilingual Canadians are french Quebecois who had to learn English to work in this country. Give me a break, English is not under assault or more of you guys would be bilingual. We're just asking for some basic respect of our official language.

@nxd1979 Fun fact. 18% of Canadians are bilingual. And zero percent west of Ottawa could give a shit about it. Only PQ would DEI hire CEO’s of major corporations based on their language skills. Congrats, 🎉

There is nothing progressive about this. The way Canada acts often has more in common with an extremist religious state than a highly progressive one. Being progressive has less to do with the values that you hold, and more about how you hold them. Dogmatic black and white values, rites and rituals = regressive Focus on continually better outcomes = progressive Air Canada should focus on making less accidents happen. A CEO change over a language issue is probably going to slow that down. It could take a year to find another competent CEO to lead the organization, delaying how quickly the real issues get fixed. This is a religious, dogmatic decision that is more about “heresy” than pragmatic changes.

@mobinfiltrator @millennials4_wp Well that didn't take long for your true colours to come out. Start a convo all high and mighty about a false double standard, and then move onto insults when someone pushes back. Principles, right? 🫡 Criss d'imbecile heureux.

@mobinfiltrator Brother, no one whines when the premier of Alberta, BC, or Saskatchewan communicate only in English. English is those province's official language. One of the pilot was a french Quebecois; the minimum AC can do is get a fucking statement translated. Principles, not politics.

@QcPamplemousse If it’s unacceptable to offer condolences in one language during a national tragedy, then that standard applies to everyone, not just CEOs. You don’t get to call out exclusion in English and then practice it in French. That’s not principle, it’s politics. #cdnpoli

POILIEVRE: "It is true that Canada has a trade surplus with the United States of America for one reason. Because we sell the United States an enormous quantity of underpriced natural resources which you then feed into your industry and turn around at massive profits to your people."
