You should also check YYJ-YYC-LHR.

Check individual segments vs. the entire journey. Some folks also use services like awardnexus.com where the website will do an automated search every day.
At your suggestion I looked at yyj- sfo routings and nothing workable comes up. All fights from yyj get into sfo at rather unworkable times around Aug 27. It looks like they only have direct fights on certain days. I'll keep my eyes peeled for the YYJ- YYC -LHR option and will also check out awardnexus.com, thank you!
