No thanks. Although, the forum population can be likened to the clientele of the RCMP, in which 10% of the people create 90% of the challenges.

No it's not. Its' purpose is to derive the greatest value from the programs used in frequent travel, in this case Aeroplan. If you truly feel the airline doesn't care about you, yet still continue to pursue that relationship, I don't know what to suggest. From YOW, there must be plenty of good alternatives to most domestic and international destinations.
Asking for help or collective problem solving issues is a huge benefit of tapping into a deep pool of public knowledge. Venting - is literally just hot air.

I never used that term to describe this or any other thread and wouldn't presume to suggest how anybody else should feel.
Let's agree to focus on our common ground: staff telling any passenger they're wrong (regardless of who may be right) is poor form. Have a trouble-free day.
