World’s shittiest airport is in Mississauga, Toronto

Former Hockey player Ryan Whitney had called Pearson airport of Toronto “the worst place on Earth” a couple of months back.

Whitney shared his frustration with his 414,000 Twitter followers after standing in long queues, suffering various delays, cancellations and rebookings during an Air Canada stopover. He said he landed at Pearson airport at 3 PM on Sunday and didn’t take off for Boston until 1 PM the next day.

“I am so in shock at this place. It is the biggest disgrace known to man,” he posted in a selfie video from the gate. He even went on to say that he might have a viral meltdown.

The situation is more or less the same as of now. The long lines, cancellations, re-bookings, irritatingly long stopovers, misplacement and loss of luggage and refusal of refund by the Pearson airport authorities have become the new normal.

Possible reasons

John Gradeck, head of McGill University’s aviation management says that the problem could lie in the attitudes assumed by the airlines and airports in the aftermath of COVID-19. “The airlines launched a whole series of flights and schedules that were very aggressive to basically capture as much of this traffic as they possibly could and without really understanding what the impact was going to be on the ability of the infrastructure and the aviation ecosystems to handle all this traffic,” Gradek said. The airports added fuel to this mismanagement by not limiting the number of flights to match their capacity.

Iqra Khalid- Mississauga’s Knight in shining armor

And this is the line of reasoning that Iqra Khalid, MP from Mississauga picked up rather conveniently. She remained silent for a long time and did not feel the need to address concerns regarding the disaster that has been unfolding in the Toronto airport, just 10 miles from her constituency, for several months now. When she did speak, it was to come out in support of Palestine, wish people a happy Muharram and talk about operation UNIFIER, the training exercises that the Canadian armed forces will undergo. Not a word about the airport crisis. No, no, hold on a minute there was something… Ah, yes. She shared a tweet that in essence stated that the federal government’s COVID-19 policy may, at best be partly responsible for the crisis and that the major reasons for the crisis could be traced to airlines and airports. Another idea floated in the tweet was that some people may have deliberately been inflating the role of the federal government just to malign Trudeau’s regime.

Maybe speak up for the people who voted you to power?

And this is her contribution to the entire matter. One tweet, absolved her and the federal government while laying blame on the airlines and airports. Iqra Khalid has been in past accused of having renewed her relationship with radical elements who incited violence against Jews in 2019. She has come a long way since then as she adopts an utterly indifferent attitude towards the very people who voted her to power

So that’s the liberal way to do things. When problems crop up, start talking about other issues after washing your hands off the one that is raging on and really matters. If you can manage to support Palestine and talk about irrelevant matters along the way, maybe a word or two for your own people in misery would also do a little good.
