I saw a lot of people screaming how we should have no problem flying 76 seaters at mainline. Air Canada does! Well Air Canada stood their ground on scope and went to arbitration. Look what it got them.

The new contract provides Air Canada with the ability to get rid of 60 A320s and 60 Embraer 190s. The purpose of this is so they can send the aircraft to their new OFFSHORE BASED (yes thats right) Low Cost Carrier.
You fellas think the scope erosion on the Delta TA was bad?...
