@WestJet stuck in Regina, cancelled flight and lost bag, no staff to help, no answer after hours on phone, online glitches...what do I have to do to get help before rebooked departure tomorrow without any idea where my bag is?? I get you're overwhelmed, me too!

>$10 trillion in gov't support has been deployed to absorb the initial economic shock related to the COVID-19 shutdown. As countries grapple with reopening & vaccinating their populations, more will be needed to rehabilitate economies (World Economic Forum) - let that sink in.

@AirCanada @CleClinicCanada You sold me a ticket with physical distancing on flights. Removing that changes everything. Honour that on tickets you sold prior to giving notice, or put distancing back in place, so we can trust you with our safety. No science needed, just commitment to put lives first.
