Navigating mental health crises poses profound challenges for families watching loved ones deteriorate without effective intervention options. This episode sheds light on a powerful yet underutilized legal tool - Section 28 of BC's Mental Health Act, which allows family members and concerned individuals to apply directly for a "warrant of apprehension" when someone exhibits dangerous mental health symptoms.A recent Colwood court judgment outlines exactly how this process works, revealing that applications have increased significantly recently. The warrant enables initial 48-hour detention for proper assessment when someone displays behaviour indicating they may harm themselves or others. We dissect the legal criteria judges consider: reasonable belief in mental disorder, need for treatment, purpose of protection, and inability to proceed voluntarily. This mechanism empowers families who previously felt helpless, though its effectiveness ultimately depends on available treatment facilities and mental health resources.We also examine two significant Court of Appeal decisions with far-reaching implications. First, a dangerous offender designation was upheld for an individual with decades of sexual offending against young boys, illustrating how the justice system handles those deemed to present an unmanageable risk to society. Second, a class action lawsuit against WestJet regarding passengers with disabilities who require multiple seats can proceed despite jurisdictional questions between federal transportation regulations and provincial discrimination laws. This fascinating exploration of "paramountcy" shows how courts attempt to harmonize seemingly conflicting legislation rather than automatically favouring federal authority. Have you encountered situations where knowledge of these legal mechanisms might have helped someone you know? We'd appreciate hearing your experiences.Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discussed.

From Air Canada's mandatory “microaggression” and “allyship” training to WestJet's “genderless” uniforms and all-female flight crews, Canada's airlines are all in on DEI policies. Plus, the largest video game retailer in the world is threatening to leave Canada and France, suggesting that “wokeness” could be one of the ailments signalling a departure. And the Conservatives are demanding that Mark Carney disclose any conflicts of interests before the Liberal leadership race concludes.

We connect with the CEO of WestJet; why hundreds of AHS workers are being switched over to a new agency, as the province continues its overhaul of the healthcare system; in the latest on our series looking into population growth in Calgary, we hear how complete strangers are ending up at the same dinner table.
Tim Rodger fought hard for compensation when his luggage was damaged on a WestJet flight. But when he won and posted about it online, he was told to take the post down. Some experts say there's a worrying trend where passengers are being silenced by airlines, their lawyers and even the Canadian Transportation Agency.
"Don't be silly! Girls can't fly." That's the message seven-year-old Lola Reid Allin heard from her father. More than 60 years later, she shares the highs and lows of her flying career, societal expectations of women of the time and how she's hoping to inspire the next generation of young women. She takes Jeyan Jeganathan up above the clouds to talk about her memoir, "Highway to the Sky: An Aviator's Journey."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Canada's housing crisis is affecting the amount emergency shelter space available to people fleeing gender-based violence. Winnipeg Police shot and killed a man outside a bus shelter after they say he stabbed an officer in the throat. Victoria couple says WestJet tried to silence them for fighting for compensation after cancelled their flight.

We start this week's episode discussing some of the recently announced details of the historic agreement reached by flight attendants at Alaska Airlines, and the strategic foresight shown in their campaign. We have yet another horrific story of prison slavery in the US, this time with a judge ruling that Louisiana can continue to force incarcerated workers to labor in dire conditions even in extreme heat. We learned shocking details this week of attempts by the federal monitor overseeing the consent decree with the UAW attempting to interfere in the union's position on Palestine. Workers in Turkiye are fighting back against a super exploitative boss and a corrupt company union, all while their real employer, Levi's sits and does nothing. Massachusetts announced a "historic" settlement agreement with Uber and Lyft to raise driver wages in the state, but as we discuss the agreement conceals a lot of major problems. Finally, we close our with a story of successful resilience and determination by Canadian workers at WestJet.

The last twelve years have been a transformative era for WestJet — management has added complexity and made strategic decisions yielding mixed results for the current business climate. But it's a more interesting and complicated story than that, as Brian Sumers and Brett Snyder discuss. We would like to thank TCG Digital for sponsoring this episode.Questions, responses or feedback?

Ever wondered about the life of a flight attendant (and ground crew)? This is the episode for you. Paul welcomes his good friend Vinod for an episode full of fun aviation and travel stories — a long episode, with the laughs taking quite some of that length.From Edmonton to Vancouver, via Calgary (and its keys!), the many airports he worked at (Paul still hasn't been to Canada), Martinair, British Airways, Air Berlin, or WestJet, amongst the many airlines he worked for (and in a world of crew camaraderie around the world, BA really seems like a big family).Is there something about the uniform that transcends trends? And Vinod's secret to treat cabin crew well (Paul is inspired).The experience of turbulences in the air (and yes, we discuss that fateful Singapore Airlines flight), but also the video game of driving a jet bridge.Can you get Covid from an aircraft wing: flying during the pandemic to (and working at) Tokyo 2020 (NRT, a game of chairs) and Beijing 2022 (PEK, calcifying under sanitizing spray).Does each airline have a specific smell, or is that a neurotic avgeek thing? (dried fish seems like a bad omen though). Vinod attempts to convince Paul that Frankfurt and Heathrow are great airports, and he nearly succeeds (his definition of LHR is just the best, and Paul softens on FRA), and we (kinda) agree on Singapore's carpet.And many more stories (Vinod's most memorable flights are quite something).

Wells is turning 40 so be prepared for even more old man rants. Your hosts decide 27 is the sweet spot before diving into their fave and least fave things. Wells also comes in hot with important and accurate news he acquired from TikTok including a horrific new nail trend and more secrets of the Denver airport. Apparently, dodgeball is banned from schools and your hosts have some words to say on that.
