CAE and other puppy mills are producing plenty of replacement pilots willing to jump on bord AC.

You are misguided in believing that pilots don't leave WJ for AC. Get your facts straight before you try to gaslight.

Well, now we definitely know that you don't know what you're talking about.

CAE build simulators and mostly sells them to airlines for training. They also have some that they rent out to airlines. These airlines use them to train pilots that they have already hired. CAE most defintely does not train random individuals trying to get hired at AC or any airline.

When you say "puppy mills" (very disrespectful, BTW) I assume you are referencing flight training schools? The graduates from these places are far from qualified to even apply to an airline, let alone get hired.

Yes, some pilots leave WestJet to go to AC but, not enough. As I said, AC currently is short about 600 pilots and cannot meet their hiring requirements because the pilots they want to hire are making more money at WestJet and Porter and are waiting for this contract issue to be resolved. If things improve Air Canada will have no problem (or less of a problem) hiring who they need. If the contract does not improve they will stay where they are.

Yes the AC pilots are able to land on taxiways and snow banks.

Hard landing on the snowbank and go around on the taxiway.
