In spite of efforts to make absolutely doubly everything idiotproof, we keep discovering newer and more creative idiots.
A passenger fell from a Boeing 777 while it was on the tarmac at Toronto Pearson International Airport, sustaining injuries after opening the cabin door before takeoff on Jan. 8.
The occurrence took place during the boarding of flight AC056, an Air Canada flight destined for Dubai from Toronto, as first reported by Global News.
The passenger, who had initially boarded without issue, opened a door on the aircraft’s opposite side while the plane was still at the gate, leading to an unexpected fall onto the tarmac. The event necessitated the intervention of emergency services and authorities.
The incident caused a significant delay for the flight, nearly six hours, which was set to transport 319 passengers.
[Ok. Here is what I don't understand. How does it take 6 hours to pick the guy up, do whatever with him, and get the plane in the air? (I know, I know, It is Pearson, so what can I say?) I also wonder how come if somebody gets a boo boo on a major highway why they close it down for half a day while traffic, including emergeny vehicles, stacks up, and the cops drink coffee and stand around scratching their clueless... er... heads?]

The Liberals must stop growing the public service and instead find ways to boost the economy
(Really, get off our backs and get out of the way. That's all it would take)
