"Trump has used tariffs to break a bunch of other countries... and in trying to do that, say, to Canada, he united Canadians and destroyed the political career of the more Trump-like, right-wing figure who was expected to be the next Canadian prime minister." 🎯

Pay more to recline your seat? Honestly I'm good with non reclining seats on short flights - but let's get real, this appears to be simply another cash grab.

WestJet is changing the seats on some of its flights, and most economy options won't be able to recline beyond a 'fixed' amount unless passengers pay for an upgrade.
