Air Canada President Calin Rovinescu, talked to Capt. Bruce White of the Air Canada Pilots Association in Montreal at the company's annual meeting yesterday. Air Canada witnessed that its shares allocated for senior managers escalated from roughly 5 million to 19.4 million. But the Capt. Bruce White, Chairman of the executive council of the Air Canada Pilots Association shared that there are no instant plans to award those shares.

White revealed it to the Gazette that his union "is still reviewing" whether to challenge the move on legal-grounds. He took issue with comments by Air Canada president Calin Rovinescu, discussing that if the carrier does "not engage with our employees, we won't be able to engage with our customers."

White shared that instead of engaging is in fact distancing them. The company cannot abandon its commitments which it made to its employees last year.

He said, “Pilots, flight attendants and other unionized employees agreed to restructure the company's pension fund contributions as well as to a 21-month extension to our collective agreements, zero-cost agreements”.

He further added that ACPA is not against target-based incentives for management and that changes in all compensation plans should be able to acknowledge all those people who add to the accomplishment of this airline.
