Not tool long ago I was getting approx $1000 all-in return on Tango Plus for this route for a MR that gave me approx 15k miles. Looks like above are inaccurate fares and some sort of issue with AC uploading them.....

cheers.
Must be a lack of availability on your chosen date(s) -- AC still publishes much lower fares on that route (below), and a quick look at AC.com shows TangoPlus options starting from 1260 CAD/RT.
