Is this a lie from Aeroplan or was there some change about the award chart that I am not aware of? And there is also ZERO availability on 25000 pricing for the dates I searched. I found that zero availability on saver award during pandemic with Canadian border closing and low demand is ridiculous.

Also, air canada business award used to be reasonably available for partner booking on United or other *A partners, but a quick search on United shows there is almost NOTHING available for LAX-YYZ business class award! Again, is this Air Canada becoming stingy after last year's program change or was there some other change that I am not aware of?

I banked a lot of United and SQ miles knowing AC has good business class award availability for partner, but I am worried: Am I screwed?

I was able to see some partner award available few months ago (this is after the last year's program change), and now they are gone. Can someone explain what's going on with Aeroplan in last few months?
