  Air traffic controllers were not laid off. Nevermind that this is Toronto. And Delta pays for its own mechanics.

    They are indeed being laid off https://federalnewsnetwork.com/workforce/2025/02/trump-begins-firings-of-faa-air-traffic-control-staff-just-weeks-after-fatal-dc-plane-crash/ https://federalnewsnetwork.com/workforce/2025/02/trump-begin...

      That article says one air traffic controller was laid off.

        The very first sentence is > The Trump administration has begun firing several hundred Federal Aviation Administration employees, upending staff on a busy air travel weekend and just weeks after a January fatal midair collision at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. I think this comment is disingenuously trying to manipulate people who won't click the link.

        You mean comment equating FAA employees with air traffic controllers? Yes.

  Dude, this happened in Toronto, Canada.
  - apercu 2y ago
    Yea. Totally man. A country in which I am a citizen. But an American airline and in a time where aspects of society are trying to deregulate everything. (maybe I should qualify all of my internet comments that I spent 29 years in the US, then 18 years in Canada, and now like 2 years back in the US. Would that help?)

      No. What would help is explaining why the US laying off people in the FAA causes a crash in Toronto, Canada. Your citizenship and residence don't matter. Your lack of an explanation on that point matters. It renders your initial claim invalid. I mean, look, there may be reason to suspect that certain US incidents are related to the layoffs and chaos. But this article isn't about a US incident, and what you're saying seems to be completely off topic. It looks like you have an axe to grind (perhaps a reasonable axe...) and you found a semi-related topic, so you're trying to grind it here, even though it doesn't actually fit.

        Canada is the 51st state now, and all their weather control machines were defunded causing wind and temperature spikes. Clearly. You just need to see how it all ties together, man.
