Lounge access changes?

On my most recent statement it says:
________
"Changes to Maple Leaf lounge access. Please note that as of September 24, 2001, Canadian Empress Lounge cards and one-time guest passes will no longer be accepted at Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounges. However, Maple Leaf lounges continue to be open to Aeroplan Super Elite members, as well as Aeroplan Elite members with same-day boarding pass or confirmed ticket."
_______

Does this mean our one-time lounge passes we rec'd. with our SE & E kits this year are toast? If not this is very poorly written...

I presume they are referring to the old CP issued Empress Lounge passes that had no expiry date.

I am on my way to pick up a friend coming in from YYC. I gave her a one time AC lounge pass for the MLL. I will confirm in a few hours if these passes are still accepted in the lounges.

They are referring to the CP Empress lounge membership cards and the guest passes that have no expiry dates on it. Those AC MLL passes will continue be valid.

as worded, the line only causes more confusion than clarification for pax.

Maybe it was a correctly placed modifier in the French version? Or perhaps this was written by one of the people in the tarrifs section?

I had hoped to clarify the MLL one time pass. Unfortunately, my friend did not use her pass as she was late getting to the airport. Sorry can't give first hand information
