DAYS SINCE WE BEGAN THE BARGAINING PROCESS. WE ARE UNITED AND WE WILL MAKE CHANGE.

Remembrance Day

Lisa Raymond on November 11, 2025

On November 11th, we pause to remember the courage and sacrifice of those who served, and continue to serve, in times of war, conflict, and peacekeeping.

As flight attendants, we travel across borders and time zones, but on this day we stand united in reflection and gratitude. We honour the veterans who secured the freedoms we hold today and recognize the continued service of those who uphold peace and safety around the world.

At the 11th hour, let us take a moment of silence to remember their bravery and reaffirm our shared commitment to compassion, solidarity, and peace.

Lest we forget.

In solidarity,

Introduction

Lisa Raymond on November 7, 2025

The Union and the GCAQE have created a checklist to help you record fume event information, document symptoms, and provide relevant details to your doctor. It doesn’t replace reporting to your employer. This tool is designed to assist you when processing information may be challenging due to your physical and mental condition.

 

Le syndicat, en collaboration avec le GCAQE, a développé une liste de contrôle que vous pouvez utiliser pour noter des informations sur votre épisode de fumée, documenter vos symptômes, et qui contient des informations pertinentes qui aideront votre médecin. Cette liste ne remplace pas le rapport à l’employeur. Il s’agit d’un outil destiné à vous aider à traiter les informations à un moment où il peut être difficile de le faire seul en raison de votre état physique et mental.

Bargaining Committee Update – 60 – Interest Arbitration Dates

Lisa Raymond on November 6, 2025

We are pleased to inform you that three hearing dates have been confirmed for the interest arbitration: January 19, January 28, and February 19, 2026. The Union wanted earlier hearing dates, however, Air Canada has not yet provided the material and data that the Union requires to prepare for the interest arbitration. Air Canada previously objected to the production request made by the Union’s counsel, requiring the matter to be escalated to the arbitrator. A hearing to address the Union’s motion on this production issue has been scheduled for later this month, November 24, 2025, though it remains to be seen whether the issue will be resolved before that time.

Although the details have not yet been finalized, it is anticipated that Members will be permitted to observe the hearings on January 19, January 28, February 19, 2026. However, members will have to leave any portion of the hearing during which confidential information, or sensitive financial data, will be presented. We have been pushing hard to have our members attend and we are pleased that you will be able to partake in this process and to see what Interest arbitration consists of.

If you have any questions about this, please reach out to us at contact@accomponent.ca.

Govern yourselves accordingly, in solidarity,

Your Bargaining Committee
