In compliance with Transport Canada’s safety notice closing Canadian airspace to Boeing 737 MAX aircraft operations, Air Canada has grounded its 24 737 MAX aircraft until further notice.
Air Canada is now updating its April and May schedule to further optimize its fleet and re-accommodate customers. Because the timeline for the return to service of the 737 Max is unknown, for planning purposes and to provide customers certainty for booking and travel, Air Canada is removing all 737 MAX aircraft from its schedule until at least July 1, 2019. A summary of schedule changes for April is posted below in the following question and answer: “What is Air Canada doing to reschedule customers?”. Additional schedule changes will be posted as warranted.

How many Boeing 737 MAX aircraft does Air Canada have?
Air Canada has a fleet of 24 Boeing 737 MAX-8 aircraft, which have been in operation since 2017. We have a total fleet of 400 aircraft (including 24 737MAX), comprising Air Canada mainline, Air Canada Rouge and Air Canada Express aircraft.
Where do the Boeing 737 MAX aircraft fly to?
These aircraft operate flights across North America, to Mexico, the Caribbean, Hawaii, as well as from Atlantic Canada to London Heathrow.
How many Boeing 737 MAX flights are there each day, and how many passengers are affected?
We typically operate approximately 75 Boeing 737 MAX flights daily out of a total schedule of approximately 1,600 daily flights system-wide, representing less than six percent of our total flying.
We have a total fleet of 400 aircraft (including 24 Boeing 737 MAX), comprising Air Canada mainline, Air Canada Rouge and Air Canada Express aircraft.
What is Air Canada doing to reschedule customers?
We are making adjustments to our schedule to minimize the disruption to customers as much as possible, by optimizing the deployment of the rest of our fleet and looking at alternative options, including accommodating customers on other airlines.
As an example of some of our adjustments to Boeing 737 MAX flights cancelled, we have re-scheduled widebody aircraft to serve Hawaii starting today, March 13. Some flights will operate as scheduled with mainline or Air Canada Rouge aircraft, such as on Montreal-Martinique and Montreal-Guadeloupe. Other routes, notably Halifax-London and St. John's-London are cancelled in the short term, with customers being re-routed through our Montreal and Toronto hubs.
What should I do right now?
As changes are finalized in our flight schedule, customers whose flight times or flight numbers have changed can expect to receive an email detailing their updated itinerary. This information is also available in My Bookings on the Air Canada App.
If you are travelling soon, you can also contact us or your travel agent. Please understand that priority is being given to customers travelling within the next 72 hours.
We have also put in place a rebooking policy, space permitting, and without additional fees for affected customers. Given the magnitude of our Boeing 737 MAX operations, which on average carry nine to twelve thousand customers per day, customers can expect delays in rebooking and in reaching Air Canada's Call Centres.

Will Air Canada cover my out-of-pocket expenses such as additional accommodation costs that I may incur as a result of these disruptions?
Our normal protocol for irregular events which are out of our control is in effect. We are regrettably unable to reimburse for such expenses.

”Always” means you are suggesting every travel agent physical or virtual should disappear - unrealistic IMHO.
btw...that would apply to Aeroplan too who is simply travel agent using a non-cash payment method with preferential supply access.
and let’s not blame travel agents for messed up AC as service supplier - let’s not forget AC is trying to avoid issuing mass refund for funds already in their bank. 1st quarter usually worst for airlines cash flow wise, so for AC to triggeri large volume of cancellations based on Tariff right and then issue refunds could cause AC bankers some discomfort especially with possible declines in economy and unstable fuel futures.
Stuff happens so AC either step-up and get seats reallocated quick or send back the money so clients can make new travel decisions.

Award flight with tight connection
Hi,
I have a flight booked for Wed YVR (AC)-YUL(LX)-ZRH (LX)-BUD in J
because of the changes with the max 8 flights, I now have 1 hour to connect in YUL and the 1 hour in ZRH. In the event I miss connect in YUL, what is AC obligated to do for me, as far as getting me to my destination in J?
Any information would be great.
Thank you

I'm currently booked on an SFO-YYZ flight Apr 13 that I strongly suspect is going to get cancelled (it has been over the last few days, plus the AC press release mentions cancelling one of the SFO-YYZ daily flights).
It's a business class Aeroplan redemption, though I'm booked on economy for this leg. Am I going to be at the mercy of award availability if (when?) the flight gets cancelled, or is there anything proactive I can do? Ideally I'l like to get a seat in business class on another flight, but at this point I'm more worried about getting rebooked on a redeye or indirect routing. Any thoughts on what my best move is here? I don't have any status, sadly.

Getting upgraded on mixed cabin Aeroplan redemptions for "upgrading" to what you "paid" for.
Maybe they'll have some space in the cargo hold for you 
Make sure to bring a jacket, it can get quite cold

OP, they are obligated to get you to where you are booked to go. To their convenience, not yours.
1 hour in YUL is no problem at all, DOM->INTL is the same space, just walking, no security or anything.
1 hour in ZRH, I've got nothing for you, but it looks like there are ~3 *A flights daily,

If they are following their IROPS rules, then their agents are allowed to rebook anything up to the same cabin. Actually, since you have "paid" for business (if fixed-miles redemption), at least in theory you might be able to jump into anything, all the way up to full J. But that interaction may be confusing to anyone who works at AC.
In any case, can I do anything until the schedule changes?

You could also phone AP and ask for a change. When my YUL connection time was lowered AP were happy to book me on a flight not showing I space (on their website anyway).
Yes you are going to get there, but if there’s an earlier flight available that gives you a longer layover I personally found AP quite equitable.
Depends on personal arrival and departure needs.

All that said 2 weeks is a fairly long time out. By then the March madness (any any redlined maintenance) will be cleared out, freeing up some capacity, and AC might have leased or new-to-them aircraft coming online. It's a dynamic situation.

Maybe not? The NHL season will be finished and the leafs should be closes to losing out to Boston by April 13, which will allow AC to convert most of their Jettz aircraft back into their commercial fleet.

Hawaii re-rouged
Haven't seen this posted but Hawaii appears to be another casualty of the MAX8 grounding. Starting April 1 the YVR-OGG route is back to rouge. 
I'm now starting to question the wisdom of buying flight passes.
