Okay, I’ve been really good and I haven’t said a single thing about the whole Air Canada situation.

I can hold my peace no longer. Allow me just this minor outburst:

Robert Milton says that Air Canada is going to lose about a billion dollars this year. He blames SARS.

Oh, sure; this has nothing to do with the accumulation of particularly horrible management of fleet and crew over the past ten years, or your lousy service, or your action of filing for bankrupty protection in the last fiscal quarter. It’s all the fault of SARS.

Even if Toronto hadn’t recently been the victim of world paranoia, you’d still be losing a billion dollars this year, Uncle Milty, because you’re badly administrated.

I really hate it when people project blame, ignore facts, and refuse to take responsibility for their own actions.

All right. I’m done.

I will now proceed to think happy thoughts.
