Anyone know why VS016 has been diverted to YYT this morning?

No idea why but my parents are onboard on their way back for a holiday here.

Given that my mother has not text or emailed me I would imagine that they were only on the ground at YYT for a short time, so possibly a medical diversion.

Would imagine if it was mechanical then they would all still be in YYT waiting for a replacement aircraft.

I will let you know what they say when they land.
