Default Canada vs. UAE

Anyone see this?

UAE closes airspace to MacKay, Natynczyk - Canada - World - News - The Cape Breton Post

Canadian defense minister & crew denied to land in UAE. Also, Canadian troops are being forced out of the country. Its all the result of Canada (Transport Canada) refusing to permit Ethiad (and presumably other Middle Eastern airlines) the ability to fly more into Canada. At the same time, EU folks are complaining how Middle Eastern carriers operate with the financial backing of their governments and don't have as much expense when operating out of their home turf airports.

Wacky.
