I'd rather be invisible and very profitable than visible and losing money all the time!

I dont think West Jet is making money from Eastern Canada either.. Its all but shut down Hamilton its YYZ flights are a joke... its flights yyz-YUL are $29 and empty. Its trying London Ont and Kitchener but if they cant make hamilton work???
West Jet at some time is going to have to get YYZ to work for them. However its nice to have west jet lose money in YYZ so we get some of our western oil money back
