(there was an earlier one but Air Canada had mysteriously cancelled that one) Then she said that there was only one seat left which was clearly bull. The whole thing was solved so easily with just one person taking the time to look a little further. I hope this clears things up for you.
There is no 45 min time limit for bags on connecting flights. Also, flights don't leave early, if pax booked on flight are not on board.
