This new annual thread has been carved out of the previous thread in an effort to reduce the number of megathreads on the AC forum. For those interested previous versions are the original 2004 - 2014 thread , 2015 edition, 2016 edition , 2017 edition and 2018 edition.
The original thread started by accident but quickly became a popular place to come and discuss off topic things such as hockey, new movies, or almost anything that wouldn't fit into existing AC forum threads. Air Canada or Aeroplan topics such as flight feedback, in-flight services issues, status or mileage earning/redemption are all topics that should go into existing AC forum threads so others can benefit from this information. Topics about hotels or airlines and/or their loyalty programs, destinations, in-flight travel tech. or anything best discussed elsewhere on FT may be relocated to that forum as this thread isn't meant to import travel topics to this forum that are better discussed on other forums. FT is an amazingly diverse and large community so members are encouraged to seek out all of its resources.
While the conversation is more relaxed as it would be in a lounge that doesn't mean however that the FT rules don't apply here as they definitely do so please refrain from controversial topics such as politics or religion, avoid profanities and treat other lounge patrons with the same respect you expect.

Well, I did it.
My last day is next Thursday.
I'll be doing a bit of a Canada tour in March (I have the month off) to visit people. YTO, YOW, YYC, YVR are definitely on my list so far. No dates yet, but I'll post them here if anyone wants to grab a drink.

Good for you. Any chance you can save YVR for first week of April? Haven't decided 5th or 6th yet.

I did the same thing. My last day is this Friday!!
I’m hoping to take 2 months off, but we’ll see. If Mrs Yhztraveller’s “honey do” list gets too long I may have to start work earlier!!!
I may join you for drinks at some point along the way. I still owe @yyznomad some single malt from Cape Breton.
Might be a good time for a mileage run!!

@canadiancow, along the lines of being asked if you're using your dad's SE card, I'm at a Bonvoy hotel with my mom, and when I gave the server my platinum breakfast voucher, he thanked her for her loyalty
