Justin Trudeau slams Air Canada after officials force national chief to part with sacred item - Toronto Star

Justin Trudeau joined federal ministers in calling out Air Canada after the national chief of the Assembly of First Nations was forced to part with her ceremonial headdress case on a flight Wednesday.

At a press conference on Friday, Trudeau called the airline’s treatment of AFN National Chief Cindy Woodhouse Nepinak “unacceptable” after it made her take her headdress out of its ceremonial case before storing the case in the baggage compartment in a plastic bag.
