Air Canada 

Canada's national airline, previously known as Trans-Canada Airlines. Originally government owned, subsequently privatized in the late eighties and early nineties. Took over Canada's other major airline, Canadian Airlines, in 2000. For a few years, a combination of minimal competition within Canada and bad times for airlines in general led most Canadians to hate Air Canada (with some justification, as service tended to be poor and fares expensive where there was no competition). The subsequent emergence of Westjet as a competitor within Canada and improving revenue has meant that things have improved a bit in recent years. Air Canada has a regional affiliate, Jazz, that flies smaller aircraft on more lightly travelled routes.

Also known as:

Air Cannibal
Air Cannibis
Air Can't...uh...duh
Air Chaos
Air Crappy
Always Crappy
Err Canada
Mapleflot
Scare Canada
Trash Can

air canada roulette 

The process of booking travel with Canada's largest airline, recognizing that there is a 51.9% chance that you will be delayed, flight cancelled, or land in an airport that wasn't on your itinerary. You might also end up watching your baggage go on a world tour without you and being left on your front porch 2 months later without explanation, have your baggage removed from your flight because they need more space for cargo, be stranded in a city that you've never heard of without compensation or assistance, or end up in a middle seat in the last row of the plane after paying $500+ for business class.

We booked an Air Canada roulette to Toronto for Monday, but they took us to Moncton instead, left us overnight without explanation, and then flew us to Ottawa the next day. We're taking the train now - we should be in Toronto by Thursday.

Canadian Air-Conditioning 

Driving with one arm hanging out of your car window, cos your chiller broke.

Guy1: "Why's your right arm brown?"
Guy2: "We lost the air-conditioner in Dave's Pinto, so he drove us from Dallas to Houston in mid-summer with only Canadian air-conditioning and frequent beer stops to keep us frosty. It was hell."

Royal Canadian Air Cadets

Literally the most stressful place on Earth. A place to meet friends, loved ones, and mortal enemies. A place that may seem nice and cheery on the outside, but in reality, it's a hellhole with no coordination or proper planning.

my friend: Hey, do you wanna do something on Saturday?
me: Sorry, I have cadets.
my friend: I hope you come back in one piece.
me: Thanks but I won't.
