If you scroll back to late August in this thread, you will be able to read pages and pages of angry posts that likely reflect what you are feeling now. You’ll also see that many of us have already taken the actions you are now calling for, and have already expressed our dissatisfaction to Aeroplan/Air Canada.
And, quite frankly, this frustration has been going on for years--as Ackbar notes. If you ever have occasion to take a really deep dive through this forum you'll notice similar dissatisfaction at many other points in the fraught history of AC/ AP. At one point 35K was enough to get you *G, then that became 50K; there was similar consternation when upgrade add-ons were introduced. The program has been consistently devalued over the years: no doubt some have dropped off, but many of us stay with it for various reasons. While I've only done a few rough calculations, I'll certainly earn enough SQCs to hit 75K, but remaining SE will be a stretch without some needless spending. I suppose what most frustrates me is that I'm constantly aiming at a moving target, something many of us here seem to be expressing.
