The document was submitted by Air Canada to the Canadian Transportation Agency in response to questions that were directed to it.

In the EU, airlines have to provide (or cover) accommodation, meals, and ground transportation under Regulation (EC) 261/2004. The definition of "extraordinary circumstances" that exonerate airlines from liability is extremely narrow, and does not include mechanical problems.

Where did the document come from?
