Air Canada uses regular boarding passes in their kiosks as well.

These flimsy new boarding passes seem to be the norm for kiosks.  I've seen=
them from Delta and Hawaiian too.  United is the only one I've seen that u=
ses regular ticket stock in their kiosks.  Alaska and Horizon, on the other=
hand, seem to be using the thinner paper for everything, even when you che=
ck in with an agent.

I prefer the older style boarding passes as well, but I'm getting used to t=
he new ones.  At least AA upgraded the software in their kiosks, it used to=
print only your last name and first initial, now it prints the whole name.
