  1. so those ppl crossing at roxham qc from usa will be sent to niagara hotels for work?? or baggage handlers? regardless…minimum wage is a form of abuse just like human trafficking but the difference is both are legal in this case!

    1. Did you just compare paying someone a fair wage (significantly above the world poverty line ) to human trafficking?

    1. Self educate and one can see what jt has done. Just remember 3 years! And no more Mr fancy socks

  2. Out of curiosity here: isn’t this kinda dangerous all this over crowding in the airport? What if there’s a fire?

  3. Avoid Pearson at all costs.
    -Pay more, if needed, to fly out and into the country through YYC, YVR, YWG, YEG etc.
    -Avoid Air Canada
    -Avoid chequing bags
    -Avoid short layovers

    1. More like avoid Canada ENTIRELY! I’m moving to the USA. Canada can’t get anything done right.

    2. @Jake Arsenta this is a problem all over the world these days. However, Air Canada has really messed up their treatment of staff. Pilots and flight attendant wages and benefits and staff relations have all deteriorated as AC has squeezed more exec comp and profit out

    1. this is not about vaccines. This is about airlines choosing extra exec bonuses over staff retention and valuing staff

  4. I wonder if this is just a Pearson airport thing. My sister-in-law with 2 little kids flew to Japan through YVR. It was fine. No issues. Her flight was at noon. She flew on a Sunday. Maybe I am not finding the videos, but I don’t see other airports having disruptions similar to Pearson airport.
