SO THAT WAS HIM!!! I thought I saw him in the YYZ Int'l MLL as well!
I did a double take and thought hmm... he looks less muscular (but still muscular) and more chunky (post-retirement chunky factor?).

Deep down inside, he still misses Ms. Floor Crosser

But on the bright side, his wife is hot.

I just realized I posted this in my EYW log, but not in this thread.

Connor Jessup on AC 7504 YTZ-YUL on June 28.

I chatted with him for a minute in YTZ. He was much more pleasant than William Shatner.

Alberta's Lieutenant Governor was one the same flight--he got a lot more attention. Both from the concierge and the constabulary.

She is a she now... I saw Ms. Ambrose and the LG 2-3 months ago before the election.

NDP travel policy always permitted this.

Don't they normally charter during an election campaign?

If he's flying commercial, it might mean the NDP's short of money.

I imagine he/the NDP are saving the charter costs until closer to the actual election date in October. Save a few bucks to spend countering the attack ads

It's just temporary. The Conservative Party chartered Flair Air, but I suspect they'll switch to the usual AC A319 complete with party decals next month.
