WestJet Strike Grounds Hundreds of Flights in Canada

WestJet’s flight attendants went on strike on Sunday after failing to reach an agreement with the carrier, grounding hundreds of flights in Canada. The article notes demonstrations at Toronto Pearson International Airport, where striking crew members gathered as the work stoppage began. While the brief report does not provide a detailed tally by route or duration, it makes clear that the industrial action directly impacted operations across the airline’s network.
