      That’s a lot of words to explain that the Air Canada CEO role has significant political expectations and speaking French is a critical one.. The Board needs to keep that in mind for the next CEO hire.

      How did everyone’s attention go from the tragic preventable accident to whatever this is. We’re in an unserious phase as a nation.

      Two workers are killed on the job and another injured along with dozens of passengers, but instead of „the Trump government and its policies are putting Canadians and everyone else at risk,“ the conversation has become about what language the condolences are offered in.

      And yet there are ‚progressives‘ in Quebec who are prioritizing the culture war over the war against fascism.

      To be honest in the light of things…2 pilots are dead first and foremost. Somehow immediately this becomes a scandal within hours of the tragedy that the CEO gave his condolences to the grieving families in English as he has admitted his French is poor to out right bad.

      We have bigger things in Canada to worry about at the moment, yes we are a bilingual country and i do respect my French brethren as I am of French decent myself. But this „scandal“ was brought up at the wrong time. To me it was cheap ploy for political points when it was a time.for grieving amd making sure the survivors get what they need to go on with their lives and out this all behind them.

      People are taking this tragedy and making it about themselves and their French identity being harmed vs the two pilots that died.

      It’s gross.

      You think the families care what the CEO of Air Canada says right now? If he did the speech in perfect French, do you think those grieving families would have their grief freed from their hearts?

      „Our husband/son/brother just died but… it’ll be okay because the Air Canada CEO gave us a perfect French condolence“.

      Guys. It doesn’t matter. The families are in pain. Making a huge controversy about this is absolutely disrespectful to those families.

      You’re taking away attention from analyzing how to prevent this from happening again or how best to help the families or the injured.

      All because it feels good to shit on a CEO.

      Get a grip.

      One thing that has gotten frustrated during all this coverage about the CEO (in a situation that is about a plane crash) is that too many people have been trying to speak for the actual victims families.

      If Air Canada is going to be held to very polticial standard then there’s not really a point in keeping it a private firm. Further I have never seen anyone actually cite the law that would require him to be bilingual and he exists in a world, which is overwhelmingly dominated by English (aviation industry).
