You may have a point. I'm not sure there's as much confusion since the new program launched and AC killed Altitude, but if you have a thought on what could be useful, please post it and I can update the OP
Sure. Try this. If you don't think it helps or clarifies, just ignore it.
What is the difference between Aeroplan and Aeroplan Elite Status?
Aeroplan is a
travel rewards program through which participants earn points they can redeem for travel through Air Canada as well as partner airlines, hotels, and other vendors. Aeroplan Elite Status (formerly known as Air Canada Altitude) is a
travel status program through which participants earn benefits and special privileges as they achieve increasing levels of status. This thread is meant to address earning Aeroplan Elite Status, not Aeroplan points. (Do we have a "how to earn Aeroplan points thread" to link to here?)
You might also add this: Aeroplan
points are related to the Aeroplan program.
Miles,
segments, and
dollars (SQM, SQS, SQD) are related to the Aeroplan Elite Status program.
