What a wonderful BC Chest Surgery meeting! Thank-you Kelowna Thoracic for hosting @moblitz36
Excellent discussion and exciting opportunities for provincial collabs. The future of thoracic surgery in BC is so bright! @ThoracicsCanada
Also @westjet waiting to offer food / drink vouchers until after everything is closed (when the delay was announced much earlier ) is just highlighting lack of respect for your customers

And now a 4 hr delay ….. really @AirCanada @AirCanadaRouge @WestJet any significant delays >1hr should come with mandated lounge access.
Maybe airlines would do a little better job of keeping to schedules and would become more accountable for any delays greater than 1hr / or reschedules would come with mandated access to their business class (etc) lounges … also makes the waits more bearable @WestJet @AirCanada
