TORONTO (UPI) -- A 6-year-old child traveling alone on an Air Canada
flight from Toronto to Mexico was kicked-off the plane after he
refused to buckle-up.
The Toronto Sun said the incident occurred Sunday morning on an Airbus
320 scheduled to depart from Pearson International Airport for Cancun,
Mexico, at 8:30 a.m.
The newspaper said the plane was on the runway and passengers had been
told to fasten their safety belts when the child decided he didn't
want to cooperate. Crew members said he became uncontrollable and was
removed from the airplane.
The child was taken back to his family, who were still in the airport,
the newspaper said.
"Nothing strengthens the judgment and quickens the conscience like
individual responsibility."
