Pierre Poilievre is accusing a union representing WestJet employees of “trying to silence freedom of speech” by demanding an apology from the company after the Conservative leader spoke on the PA system on a recent flight.
He always, always has to present himself as a victim. What a baby.
He couldn’t just project his voice from his seat? Seems to work for the children on my flights.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Pierre Poilievre is accusing a union representing WestJet employees of “trying to silence freedom of speech” by demanding an apology from the company after the Conservative leader spoke on the PA system on a recent flight.
A video circulating online shows Poilievre making short remarks on a flight that was leaving Quebec City for Calgary Sunday night after the Conservative Party of Canada’s convention.
After the video began circulating, a WestJet spokesperson told CTV News that Poilievre’s use of the PA was approved ahead of time but the final decision rested with the crew on board.
But a spokesperson for the union representing WestJet cabin crew said Wednesday it was “very disappointing” that the airline allowed a politician to use the PA system.
The cabin crew had no input into this decision," Alia Hussain, president of CUPE local 4070, said in a media statement.
He said the fact that the flight was filled with party faithful made it a unique situation and he expects WestJet will ensure it doesn’t happen again.
