Was op-upped from economy to business on AC LGA-YUL last Wednesday. The gate agent specifically said that there may not be a meal for me, and it was printed on the boarding pass as ML*1/NOML.

Ended up with a meal anyways. For an 1 hour flight, I was surprised that they served a hot breakfast with omelette and a sausage link. It was delicious.

FWIW, the op-up on AC only happens when they have a W&B issue requiring pax to move forward, or when they’re oversold in the back.
(emphasis added)

As that is the definition of op-up.
