Canada Day in Singapore, eh flyme2! My stomach envies the gourmet delights of the Scotts Road hawkers stands you can take advantage of down there. Or wandering through the fragrant flora in the Botanical Garden. Always thought of Singapore as the more Canadian of the Pacific rim countries/cities because of its "peace and order" attitude (I won't venture it has "good government" aspect). It contrasts with Hong Kong, the wildly exuberant U.S.-style city, albeit tempered with a veneer of British heritage...

Since everyone is recapping, here are details of Monday's Air Canada tours, subject to final confirmation of times by AC later this week:

9 am — Visit to the Aeroplan customer service centre in downtown Montreal
10 am — Drive to Dorval airport
10:30 am — Tour the AC Maintenace Facility
Noon — Lunch at Dorval (trying for Cara test
kitchen at AC headquarters)
1:30 pm — Meeting with AC execs to present "Perfect Airline" postings

While we have seven confirmed, we can take several more. You may also start the tour at the Maintenance Facility, and don't have to stay for lunch or the afternoon meeting.

Sorry I'll miss Thursday's orientation as I won't be in until 4:05 Friday on Cdn's non-stop from YEG. (I'll take the bus to the Sheraton Centre unless BB wants to wait.)

By the way, I've always wondered why one strip of the freeway from the airport to the city has the traffic flowing on the wrong side: i.e. into town it is on the left when it should be on the right of the divide? Any ideas about that flyme2?
