The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday edition that the union representing pilots at Jazz Aviation claims that their employer and Air Canada have breached the Canada Labour Code, even as it ratified changes to their collective agreement. A Canadian Press dispatch to The Globe says that on Monday, the Air Line Pilots Association filed a complaint with the Canada Industrial Relations Board arguing that both airlines violated the exclusivity deal between the two and effectively narrowed the pipeline of pilots from one carrier to the other. Jazz, a subsidiary of Chorus Aviation, provides regional service for the country's biggest airline under the Air Canada Express brand. In May, Air Canada chief executive officer Michael Rousseau announced a "bridging arrangement" with St. John's-based PAL Airlines to boost the number of regional flights in Eastern Canada. Tim Perry, president of the Air Line Pilots Association's Canadian segment, said that the deal was out of bounds, owing to the contract between Jazz and Air Canada. "The arrangement was that it was exclusivity. So when flying was assigned or when deals were struck with PAL, we're basically saying that was done in contravention of previous agreements," he told CP.
