EK-235 from Dubai (United Arab Emirates) to Chicago O'Hare,IL (USA), was enroute at FL320 in contact with Icelandic Air Traffic Control over Greenland when the crew received a flight control caution message with the indication the left hand elevator had been locked out. The crew performed the relevant checklists and decided to divert to Winnipeg,MB (Canada) for a safe landing about 4.5 hours later.
The Canadian TSB reported the maintenance inspection is still underway, "once a maintenance solution has been identified the operator will ferry the aircraft back to Dubai."
The aircraft is still on the ground in Winnipeg standing Feb 10th 21:15Z.
