You are wholly and fully responsible for any entry or travel requirements put in place by your destination or transit countries. The airline may remind you and assist you, but they are not in any way responsible for informing you of any requirements.
As an aside, the eTA was not just introduced 7 weeks ago, its been in place since March 2016 and was advertised from early 2015 – you could apply for an eTA first in August 2015, well ahead of the requirement deadline.
The eTA is also not a visa, it is a travel authorisation which is required if you wish to travel to, from or via Canada by air only. It is in addition to any visa requirements.
