People who exceed their allotted airplane seat space have to fret no more- as long as they are flying in Canadian planes. Canada decided that obese people who take up more than one seat do not have to pay for it- because paying for another seat your body is taking up is "discriminatory" and mean. "It's going to make a huge difference because now I know that I'll be able to fly with dignity," said Linda McKay-Panos, who is obese. Once you have reached the point that you need additional seats to hold your body, dignity has died long ago. Not only do obese passengers get free additional seats, people with disabilities do not have to pay for their care-givers and attendants seats either. Other than being a hilariously awful court ruling, this can potentially hurt Canadian airlines costing them as much as $7.1 million per year.
If only people would realize how awful they look and try to make some life-style changes, then and only then could normal people and the morbidly obese coexist in peace.
