Thumbs down flight delay that does NOT qualify for 'flight delay insurance'

In an amazing move, AC just cancelled AC152 yvr-yyz for 1615hrs departure and then rebooked us all on AC132 originally scheduled for 1730hrs departure, and then delayed that flight due to mechanical...but by a miracle of fate, the new departure time is 1905hrs and the total delay time from the original departure time of AC152 to the newly delayed time of AC132 is ONLY 3 hours and 50 minutes - miraculously exempting any of us from claiming the 4 hour flight delay insurance benefits many of us carry on the various credit cards.
I am willing to bet my $1000 insurance potential that the flight will NOT depart at 1905hrs...
Is there ANYTHING we can do about this?
