Air Canada and its flight attendants' union, CUPE, reached a tentative agreement, ending a strike that disrupted thousands of flights. The agreement, which needs union member approval, addresses unpaid work and wage increases. The strike, which saw over 700 daily flight cancellations, started Saturday despite a government order to resume operations. Air Canada expects a week to 10 days to fully restore its schedule due to aircraft and crew displacement. The dispute centered on wages, with flight attendants' pay lagging behind inflation and industry standards.
