Cancellations and delays hit Air Canada flights

Air Canada's operations have yet to return to normal a day after dozens of pilots called in sick, forcing the cancellation of about 75 flights.

Toronto's Pearson airport listed 17 cancellations and 50 delays on its website today. Flights at other airports were also affected.

Air Canada spokesman Peter Fitzpatrick said today that the problems are a result of aircrafts not being in a position to fly due to yesterday's labour action.

Air Canada says the Canada Industrial Relations Board granted the airline an order today requiring its pilots to end the work stoppages that caused travel chaos across the country. The Board said certain pilots were engaged in an illegal strike.
