Anyhoo...

I will never fly (as in they will never purchase it) an AC Comair aircraft in my lifetime (55 years old), I am 100% sure on that.
but you have no problem stepping on a Boeing jet?
I don't know about you, but no comac jets had fell from the sky.

It would be foolish for AC to not consider Comac if it has proven safety and operational metrics

I am so sad over the C series being sold for scraps to the Europeans. That's the difference between two countries, one think in decades while the other in a years. If only there were more support from domestic airlines like WestJet, maybe we could have an airplane manufacturer that rival comac, but it's too late now.
