Unfortunately this is the tip of the iceberg in terms of the job losses that are coming in our country.
Five weeks ago I was chatting with some of the cabin crew in the forward galley of my HND - YYZ flight about how they hoped the route impacts wouldn't move beyond mainland China. Five weeks ago.

COVID-19 is going to be bad for everyone, but it is going to hit people like AC crew first and hardest. Never mind the company, I feel horrible for the people on the front line who are losing their jobs with no return to work in sight.
