I really couldnt' believe it, so after a 30 minute wait for Air Canada to take my telephone inquiry, they responded curtly that the wouldn't OFFER that connection if they couldn't DO that connection... but if I was "nervous" I could make other arrangements. *sheesh*

Mea culpa... I note that it's actually a 70 minute layover... Any further thoughts?
