We have it so good in Canada it's simply ridiculous. But that's still not enough for some.

Wow, I wish physical harm upon this guy. What a douche.... but at the same time, wtf is wrong with Canada even paying attention to this???
- Because he knows which buttons to push with Canadians. Evidence: this thread exists.Continuity

Why misleading tread title like this?
This is not $12k over 7Up but over the airline not complying with the gov't rules.
How would you feel if next time you go to a restaurant your waiter started talking to you, in say Bengali?
- i'd go to mcdonald'sprophetone
- I would choose not to eat there. End of story.aldebaran
- Depends if it was a Bengali restaurant. I'd kind of expect it there.Continuity
- good luck choosing "not to be there" when 30,000 feel in the air...pr2
- ya. he would have to leave 'cause he couldn't get a soda pop on his one hour flight.aldebaran
- again, it's not about simplistic thinking like that. it's about the corporation not complying with the laws.pr2
- What? He got his drink,. He wasn't ignored or misunderstood. It comes down to a branding issue and perhaps stock on the plane.ETM
- perhaps what the plane stocks.ETM
- Its like he ordered Sprite and got vodka or something.ETM

So, since I will be in montreal, I will be asking for Sprite in english. If they give me a 7Up, I will sue.

Does the airline even carry 7-up? One is a coke product, the other from pepsi, right (not sure where sierra mist comes into play)? Business usually carry one or the other.
At least the guy got a clear carbonated beverage, so he could at least communicate at some level.
Not like after he ordered the flight attendant took out a root beer, shook it up and opened it under his chin.
I may complain, but would never sue.
...but I'm from Missouri, so I'm used to disappointment.

He must have asked for a «Sept En Haut».

If I go to Richmound should I expect service in English? Sure. But do I

someone should try it by asking for a pepsi and see if you get a coke then sue them for $12,000 for their aweful mistake.

Alright suing the province of Quebec for 1 billion dollars because I couldn't get service in english in most places beyond Montreal or hotels in Quebec City.
Oh wait... actually I am not going to bother... 'cause I am not a stupid cunt and I have bigger things to worry about.
- dude... you should so totally sue them, and use the profits to buy out QBN and add a delete spam button.Amicus

i honestly thought it was mandatory to be technically bilingual to do customer service with air canada . it is with the government right? not that these are the same I just figured, there are lots of jobs you can't be considered for without being at least partially bilingual.

People like this are just opportunists, its a shame they turn real issues into trivial escapades. Douche is a french word after all .

I'm doing the wrong things to try to make money. I should be looking around to see who I can shake down.

'Thibodeau has a history of being litigious. He sued an Ottawa bus company in 2002 because the bus driver said "Hello" not "Bonjour."'
What a fucking twat.

Wonder if the court case was held in English?
