Air Canada’s board of directors announced that Michael Rousseau will be retiring as CEO later this year, a week after he faced controversy over issuing an English-only condolence message following the deaths of two pilots in New York.
“It has been my great honour to work with the dedicated and talented people of Air Canada and to represent our outstanding organization … I look forward to supporting our company during this important transition period,” Rousseau said in a March 30 press release.
