Summary Translation: No byline - Air Canada will lay off more than half of its 38,000 employees next month as it grapples with the fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic. Air Canada, the country's largest airline, has - along with its competitors - seen demand for air travel evaporate amid ongoing border shutdowns and confinement measures, prompting the airline to ground some 225 airplanes and slash flight capacity by 95 per cent. Although air travel is expected to pick up somewhat before year's end, Air Canada CEO Calin Rovinescu said recovery will be slow, with at least three years of subpar earnings.
