Union demands apology from WestJet after Poilievre speaks on flight’s PA system

OTTAWA — The union representing WestJet cabin crew is demanding an apology from the airline after Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre spoke on the public address system of a recent flight.

Poilievre’s campaign-style speech lasts for about 45 seconds and is met with laughter and cheers from passengers.

CUPE Alberta’s local president Alia Hussain says it’s very disappointing that the airline allowed a politician to use the PA system.
