Air Canada still *giving* away *free* flights
Seems that AC still thinks they are giving away free flights, probably to parasitic freeloaders like ourselves. I thought this issue had been dealt with some time ago, but apparently not.
In this month's Aeroplan and Ewe there is a chart showing what you get for flying 8, 12, or 16+ segments. In each case it is a free trip. (Their emphasis.)
So I guess if it's free we should thank the heavens, who in turn can thank RM and RD, for their generosity.

It's frustrating that they could have just used more descriptive and probably equally appealing language along the lines of "You've earned a long-haul North America flight award" instead of the Madison Avenue "FREE FREE FREE" philosophy. Gives them credit for "earning" the award, and puts aside the "something for nothing" attitude.
