I would file this under socialized things Liberals slowly ruined and Conservatives threaten to destroy the second they get in power.


I’m 6’2" and things were already tight for me as well.
The problem with thier shuffling method is it compounds the already bad flight delays(there’s also the carry-on shuffle they caused) and most of their seats won’t even fit me so at a certain point you might just get bumped off the entire flight and they don’t even give you a real number to make decisions with. I actually don’t even know which seat fits me because aside from padding the seat angle also changes the real leg room so the pitch measurement is almost useless.


I think that is the crux of it aside from readers having little expectations of being informed for these reportings, it also seems that the news outlets no longer have viable revenue models that allow them to staff to the level it would take to write proper articles which is why the Toronto Star was the best out of them.
Will point out that CBC does take a lot of revenue from us collectively and this low effort type of reporting is become very common for them. That’s addition to clearly trying to pander certain crowds with titles like this
Greenland has become the island that could break NATO
I’ll still defend them as being the best large scale news outlet in Canada but they’re becoming a astonishing poor place to be informed about events.


Since one of the top post here this week is from Fox News I wanted to take the opportunity to let people know how bad news is even from real news organizations and they should probably avoid interacting with places like Fox altogether.
This is a pretty widely reported about Westjet cutting the legroom. Almost all these articles has little useful information and largely just convey a sentiment that people should be angry at Westjet.
To provide examples of useful information this information took me about 25 minutes to gather:
Has most of the airline - https://www.airlinequality.com/info/seat-pitch-guide/
Has less airlines but different plane model - https://www.netflights.com/useful-tips/legroom-chart
The Toronto Star article shows that more than half the seats is the smallest size.
Pitch is a industry term that doesn’t clearly represent actual leg room.
Westjet does not present this information clearly when booking to allow the customer to make a informed decision.

This Toronto Star one actually has some useful information:

He’s a piece of shit.
But also to signal that he’s on a specific side. People would call these dog whistles but I think it’s bit to overt for that.
