A pax had a medical condition requiring a diversion to YYT. Since the crew was about to time out, the decision was taken to fly to DUB to have a change of crew instead of stranding everyone in YYT.
I was in a similar situation on LH415 last year, the medical diversion started just after we had started the atlantic crossing north of BGR. First they decided to divert to BGR, but changed it to BOS. Once we landed in BOS at 3am the crew announced it would time out, so everyone was offloaded and sent to hotels and the flight left the following evening with everyone having a 23h delay. The solution on Monday night sounds much better.
