Anand is one of Trudeau's better ministers overall, but the idea that the transport minister should personally oversee the fee structures of individual airlines is absurd. As is the idea that she should do it by scolding them rather than through transparent rules. #cdnpoli

BREAKING: @AnitaAnandMP tells Power Play she'll be calling all Canadian airline CEOs to a meeting in mid-December after Air Canada says it will charge some passengers for carry-on bags in the new year. "This is not acceptable at a time when Canadians’ pocketbooks are hurting…

In my view @IrwinCotler is one of the greatest living Canadians. The threats he is living through should be viewed by all of us as threats to Canada and our way of life. What he & his family have been experiencing for the last year is appalling.
