Re: Ghost of Mike Harris haunts Doug Ford

I don’t care for Doug Ford much. Especially how he handled the scamdemic or his drama queen TDS episodes. He’s a liberal in a blue suit but he’s the least of all evils when you compare him to the commie NDP or the liberal ladies….Bonnie Crosbie or Kathleen Wynne? :lol:

Re: YYZ initial base bid

If they still get applicants willing to play “mystery base” on day 1 of groundschool then it will continue status quo. Most new hires are still young low experience candidates who tend to not be tied down with mortgages and families which is also the problem since Jazz needs experience for the left ...

Re: Remove AR, reduce upgrade time?

At Jazz it’s not so bad since there’s a limited number of positions overall and no jet flying for them in the east.

It will get interesting if there’s layoffs with the fuel price shitshow. Will a boomer retire or let a new hire get laid off? I think I know the answer to that.

I can’t imagine being told to groom the aircraft between flights. It’s a minimum wage job for simpletons, not airline pilots.

Jazz has no flying in YHZ anymore and we don’t fly to YQT except on rare occasions. I doubt it would attract any Porter talent.

Re: How long is Transport Canada processing time for Class 1 medical

Unfortunately it's obvious that the current federal government has no interest in improving the lives of its citizens. This can be seen in the rapid decline of every aspect of life over the past decade. Can someone actually tell me what has improved in Canada during this period? I honestly can't th...

I hope he goes to Dallas or Atlanta this winter! I wouldn’t mind a flow through to Delta or one of the other majors. Or maybe he will have a staycation and cook a nice big turkey at the ALPA office with those fancy new appliances and watch Christmas Vacation and Bad Santa on that big screen TV.
