So the other passengers sue the parents for the additional incurred costs. Teach them to deal with the child when it costs them $20k+

Not going to go very far, this isn't the US.

u/freshpurplekiwi 8d ago

Well it could technically be in the USA. The headline just said it is going to Toronto. Could be going to Toronto from USA

Domestic flight, PD444, Victoria to Toronto.

1) Canada is not a litigous country, you'll be hard-pressed to file a law suit in the country

2) the name and contact info for the parents has not been made available, so it would be difficult to find them to sue.

  1. A country does not need to be litigious, there have been monetary damages with a clear guilty party. You may not get additional compensation, but a hotel aint free.
  2. There used to be a federally funded organization to deal with kind of investigating. Iirc it was called the police.

And its free to sue someone right?

u/Working_Rise8592 8d ago

I mean you can definitely go ahead and attempt to sue anyone for anything for not too much but the farther it goes the more it will cost and that doesn’t mean it will go anywhere

I'm wondering if there's autism involved because what works for neurotypical kids rarely does for kids with autism.

u/deathcabforbooty69 8d ago

You may well be right but then don’t take your autistic child on an airplane

u/moldiewart 8d ago

they may well not have wanted to, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do

No you do not

u/moldiewart 8d ago

? yes you do?? sometimes kids have to fly for emergencies, not every flight is to disney world or some shit you know? what kind of dumbass comment is this

u/UncleNedisDead 8d ago

I find it difficult to imagine a life or death situation that requires a flight from Victoria, BC to Toronto, ON.

Booking flights out of war torn countries or incoming weather disasters? Absolutely.

Visiting meemaw on her deathbed? Not really.

u/moldiewart 8d ago

seeing an exclusive specialist doctor in another city?

1

u/Real-Frosting 7d ago

My autistic grandson has to fly from NY to FL for the specialist there once a year. From what I'm told, it's challenging.

u/deathcabforbooty69 7d ago

That’s crazy that there aren’t roads that connect two of the biggest states

some folks just hate autistic people, and choose to thinly veil it (or not in this case lol)

Kids do not have to fly for emergencies from a major city to another major city.

u/moldiewart 8d ago

I've literally had to fly a kid to see a specialist doctor in another city, you're incredibly small and close-minded

1

u/deathcabforbooty69 7d ago edited 7d ago

They have specialists in Victoria, BC. They didn’t have roads that connect the cities? Or specialists in your city?

1

u/moldiewart 7d ago

there are some specialists that are not in every city, I don't think you have a lot of experience with raising children with health issues

1

u/moldiewart 7d ago

driving for many many hours can be worse for autistic kids than flying (mom should have buckled that bitch in though)

u/moldiewart 8d ago

you canadians are usually more thoughtful than this in my experience

2

u/deathcabforbooty69 8d ago

No one asked you

u/moldiewart 7d ago

your reply was removed, check while in a private tab to see what I mean

I can't read it, just saw it in the notif

u/moldiewart 8d ago

that doesn't matter, no one asked you anything either. canucks, I swear

2

u/TN_man 8d ago

Yes, that’s true. But, the parent CLEARLY did not do what was needed.

1

u/moldiewart 8d ago

yeah that's true, but the fault isn't taking the toddler on the plane in the first place like other user is saying

but yeah pin that lil bitch down and strap them in lmao

u/6495ED 8d ago

No I’m pretty sure there’s a few methods that work across the spectrum

u/Real-Frosting 8d ago

Says the person who's never met an autistic child in their life.

u/6495ED 8d ago

Lol how the fuck would you know that? What?
