AC aircraft waiting for ground crew on arrival seems to be a chronic problem in the last couple of years, especially mid to late evening @ YVR. (a) The plane has been in the air for 4 hours and they didn't know it was coming? Or (b) did they deliberately decide to only call in one ground crew and make the pax wait until they're ready? I think (b) would be more consistent with AC's operating culture: we wait for no one, but you must wait for us when we need you to.
