With all due respect to Garneau, I don't think the statement that he wouldn't hesitate to get on a max 8 doesn't really mean much considering he willingly flew 3 times on the most deadliest aircraft of the modern era.

I would respect anyone who changes their opinion after seeing new facts.

I don’t understand this ridiculous burden we place on our politicians. Why can’t they change their opinion on things when new facts come to light? I am not saying changing principles but opinions.

Like someone asked “I see new facts and change my opinion. What do you do?”

Well, calling the shuttle an aircraft is a bit of a stretch. It was more like a slightly aerodynamic rock.
