Air Canada Strike To Continue Despite Government Order
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Flight attendants for Air Canada will continue to strike despite a back-to-work order issued by the Canadian Government, the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) said in an interview with Radio-Canada Sunday. The announcement came just a day after the Canadian government ordered the union and airline back into arbitration. The Canadian Industrial Relations Board acted on a directive from the country's Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu, ordering Air Canada "to resume airline operations and for all Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge flight attendants to resume their duties" by 2 p.m. ET on Sunday, Newsweek previously reported. Air Canada said previously that they would resume operations Sunday following the cabin crew strike that grounded hundreds of flights, causing cancellations affecting tens of thousands passengers. The strike came following requests for pay increases and better working conditions, CUPE said in a statement issued Saturday. "The Liberal government has invoked Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code to end a strike by Air Canada flight attendants fighting to end unpaid work and poverty wages," CUPE said in the statement. Newsweek has reached out to CUPE via email for more information Sunday. This is a breaking news story. Updates to come.

DC Dems safety delusions: Letters to the Editor — Aug. 18, 2025
The Issue: Democrats' opposition to the Trump administration's takeover of Washington, DC, policing. It's actually quite astounding watching Democrats protesting against a safer Washington, DC. They must like the murders, carjackings, robberies and sexual assaults that happen on a daily basis ('$oros DC protests,' Aug. 13). They must also relish victimhood. J.J. Levine Miami Beach, Fla. In response to President Trump dispatching federal officers to the streets of DC, Sen. Chuck Schumer said, 'I feel perfectly safe' walking around the US Capitol grounds and vicinity. Of course, he forgot to mention that he has 24-hour taxpayer-funded security and the use of a car. I bet his younger staffers who don't enjoy around-the-clock security may whisper that they don't share their boss' view. David Tulanian Henderson, Nev. Stating that the statistics prove that DC crime is down, Hillary Clinton has accused Trump of overreacting to Washington's out-of-control crime problem. Perhaps 'Her Majesty' should speak to a large audience comprised solely of crime victims in Washington who haven't a single Secret Service agent assigned to protect them. And when one of them asks her about the agents that are assigned to her, Bill and Chelsea, her answer would surely be enlightening. Could it possibly be: 'Well, our lives are very important and yours aren't?' Myron Hecker Pearl River I guess I was naive to expect Democratic Mayor Muriel Bowser to completely agree with Trump's National Guard mobilization to combat crime in DC. She would rather protect the city's autonomy than protect the citizens who get beaten, robbed and carjacked by roving, marauding thugs infesting her district. Joseph Valente Miami Beach, Fla. Of course, we have our usual and typical left-leaning idiots led by Chuck 'Humor,' who continues to be a clown. He had the audacity to go on live TV and say that DC is fine, and he walks around the city every day. What he omits is the fact that he is escorted by Capitol Police while walking and also while roaming the halls of Congress. Ask the people who are beaten and carjacked daily how safe Washington, DC, really is. Lou Bivona Belleville, NJ The Issue: The Toronto International Film Festival's effort to exclude an Oct. 7 documentary. Of course liberals in the Canadian film industry wouldn't have wanted the world to see what Hamas did to innocent civilians on Oct. 7, 2023 ('Backlash at film festival,' Aug. 15). Those who committed such heinous atrocities should not be entitled to any 'legal clearance.' Betsy Flor Putnam Valley As a member of Everything Jewish Toronto, I'm writing to say how pleased many of us are for your front-page coverage of TIFF's initial refusal to show the Oct. 7 movie. It was clear antisemitism, and most of the Canadian media ignored it. Thank you for your great coverage. Arthur Weinreb Toronto, Ontario With individuals and groups around the world minimizing what occurred on Oct. 7 — and frankly, dehumanizing the Israeli victims — it is crucial that this documentary film is included in the Toronto International Film Festival to be released for all to see. Amy Hendel Tarzana, Calif. I wonder, looking back to World War II, if we should have gotten Hitler's permission to use death camp footage in Frank Capra's films on the war atrocities. This is just ridiculous. John Giriat The Bronx Want to weigh in on today's stories?

Air Canada Union Says Flight Attendants Will Continue Strike, Defy Government
Air Canada flight attendants said on Sunday they will remain on strike and challenge a return-to-work order they called unconstitutional, defying a government decision to force them back to their duties by 2 p.m. ET. Air Canada had said it planned to resume flights on Sunday evening, a day after the Canadian government issued a directive to end a cabin crew strike that caused the suspension of around 700 daily flights, stranding more than 100,000 passengers.
