Article on the earthquake.
It will be interesting to see if it makes the show at all.

Looking at the Wikipedia page of Iqaluit, Nunavut's airport, it looks like Ottawa is the ONLY place (besides Winnipeg seasonally), that has flights to and from Iqaluit in southern Canada. All other flights are from Northern Communities.
I know we've established that Air Canada is the carrier of this race, but would they make an exception for places that can only be visited by flying a tiny airline?
EDIT: Looks like Montreal has a flight to/from Iqaluit as well according to the Wikipedia page, but it isn't showing up in searches for flights.

LOL.........I saved that pic a couple of years ago, after an earthquake down here in Texas. It got posted then too.

So, Ottawa is probably the next stop (Saturday?), as it seems they only stayed in the airport on the way North, and there really isn't any other way back. Too bad, I am downtown today (survived the earthquake :lol3:), but not tomorrow.
