Miss Vyvyanne races again at Woodbine!

I found out late on Friday night, Miss Vyvyanne was racing at Woodbine on Saturday at 12 noon Vancouver time.  We went to The Derby to watch the race and check this out!

At the end of the race in the winners circle on the far right is Richard's brother Gordon who lives in Toronto.   

WestJet strike!   It's always good to know your rights as a passenger in Canada.  I follow Gabor Lukacs, on Facebook.  https://www.facebook.com/AirPassengerRights/   

If you have any questions, he is a great advocate for everyone.

Gábor Lukács, PhD

Gábor is a Canadian air passenger rights advocate, who volunteers his time and expertise for the benefit of the travelling public.

 

Since 2008, Gábor has filed more than two dozen successful complaints with the Canadian Transportation Agency (Agency), challenging the terms, conditions, and practices of air carriers, resulting in orders directing them to amend their conditions of carriage and offer better protection to passengers. He has also appeared before courts across Canada, including the Federal Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court of Canada, and successfully challenged the Agency's lack of transparancy and the reasonableness of the Agency's decisions.

In 2013, the Consumers' Association of Canada awarded Gábor its Order of Merit for singlehandedly initiating legal action resulting in the revision of Air Canada's unfair practices regarding overbooking. His advocacy in the public interest and expertise in the area of air passenger rights have been recognized by the transportation bar, the academic community, the judiciary, and the legislature.
