How many times do these situations have to happen before government stops hanging out at the the lobbyist's cocktail party and actually does its job regulating companies and protecting citizens?
“If the airline is unable to re-book a passenger on its own or partner airlines departing within 48 hours of the original departure time, they have to buy the passenger’s seat ticket on the next available flight of any carrier. And that means including competitors. That’s what the law says, that’s what WestJet has to do. The problem is that WestJet is flouting the law. WestJet treats the law as if it was just friendly recommendations.”

Full disclosure for Canadian folks.
Yes I am an #NDP member.
I have also been a Green Party (Federal) member. #gpc
I have always been on the orange/green fence. This post explains my history and current thinking about parties and this moment in Canada.
I had never been a member of any party, then I voted in the GPC leadership race with Annamie Paul and Dimitri Lascarsis because I wanted to make a difference more than just talking online…
When that party disintegrated, I left, but had got the taste… so then I joined the BCNDP to participate in their leadership campaign after Horgan. I supported the upstart Appadurai who got disqualified… but she made a splash and a very very important point!
So I stuck around… and now I am going to vote in the Federal NDP leadership because I see a couple really good candidates that could push Canada in a #democraticSocialist direction.
I encourage others to do the same. Canada and Canadians need real options right now. Liberal, NDP, and others. Be involved. Become a member even if you don’t think you’ll stick. Be involved.
After the leadership vote I will likely let my membership lapse and go back to being a free agent… towing a party line is not my style…
But it is important in this moment in the world to fight for what you believe in, so that’s why I am voting in the NDP leadership.
I know I will be voting for one or more of these depending how the voting works.
