Thanks - I just won't make the date change since this is the case. The date change isn't essential. I'd rather have the right of cancellation. It does seem counterintuitive that exercising the option of a date change negates the pre-Sept.30 'booking date' and the cancellation option that went along with it. But so be it.
It is possible that Air Canada will cancel all its summer YYZ - AMS flights anyway (as they did to me in June 2021 and November 2021, leaving KLM as the sole provider of direct flights) .

I booked prior to September 30, so it is fully cancellable as per this policy:
"Aeroplan flight rewards booked through September 30, 2021 can be cancelled free of charge, anytime."
I would like to advance my date by a week under this policy:
"Enjoy flexibility if your plans change. We’ll waive all change fees on Aeroplan flight rewards through February 28, 2022."
So I phoned into Aeroplan to check on making the change and was told that by changing the date I lose the cancellation privilege.
Does this tally with the experience of FlyerTalk members?
Thanks in advance.
