Perhaps I'm missing something here but I sense a rather unfriendly tone to your response! You can hardly argue that a 24 hours delay is an ideal situation in any airline, regardless of what the reason was?
If I am told by a phone agent that this is the best option, who am I to question it? Why should it be my responsibility to phone back and push for a better solution? I explicitly asked if there were any quicker connections (even if she needed to head west via YYZ/YUL etc) and was told "no", YYT-LHR 24 hours later is the only option.
I only came on here to ask the "regulars" what the deal is over there. I fully understand EU compensation only applies for flights
departing the EU, I just wanted to know if anything similar existed in Canada and/or if it was worth asking for anything extra. As the saying goes, "if you don't ask, you don't get".
Alas, it seems I am wasting my time so I will keep my mouth shut in future
