Hope AC wins this one and finally nails down the precedent that the provincial legislatures cannot regulate them.
Not only this, but the T&Cs are clear. It's not like Air Canada did something shady here.

It's like starting a class action after spending $50,000 on a car with a 4 year warranty and then saying "well, the warranty expired 4 years after I bought the car" and wanting damages because some tort was committed.
