Air Canada ordered to pay Montreal doctor $1,000 for mid-air consultation

Somehow this doggy thread wound up being about an MD but unless some kind Mod. wants to sever the topics I'll simply update the good Doctor's win in court vs. AC:

MONTREAL — Air Canada (TSX:AC.B) has been ordered to pay a Montreal doctor $1,000 in compensation for having to perform medical duties during an international flight in 2006.

That is less than the $3,058 initially sought by Dr. Henry Coopersmith, which he calculated as the equivalent of an executive-class fare, the value of medical services rendered and compensation for a day of vacation lost.
