I draw your attention to this stock price chart, where Air Canada is the dark blue ( mostly top line) and IAG is the light blue. Who has given a better return to the shareholders? That is the job of a CEO after all. I'd venture that Calin Rovinescu is a much more successful airline CEO than Walsh.

I was talking about Michael O’Leary and Ryanair, given the poster referred to him specifically.
I’m not sure what prompted the link between Walsh and O’Leary, hopefully it’s more than simply petty jingoism.
