Is Air Canada ALPA?
WT..F....When will we(pilots as a whole) learn that unity means every possible pilot in every possible plane on every possible route with no exception(when legally permissible), I swear we eat our young at every turn........
To answer you, nope, AC pilots have an independent union.
(To DAL's MEC credit during BK days, the company wanted to outsource the Song flying and the union stood firm for seniority list pilots making regular wages and won.)
