Flying to Cuba from US via Canada

Hi all,

In the purely hypothetical case that I was interested in flying to Cuba without getting US government authorization because it's a clear restriction on my freedom of movement and an inane policy in all ways....

How do I book a flight? Air Canada has stopped selling flights to Cuba unless they're part of a vacation package with a luxury hotel attached. I would be looking to travel independently to Havana to explore the culture - staying in a huge resort doesn't appeal to me.

There was a thread a few months ago about AC moving all flights to Cuba to their vacation division, but I just recall people complaining about the change - no mention of what this means in practice for booking flights.

Anyone tried recently?

I suppose I could fly through Mexico, but I'd prefer to do Canada because it's a much easier country to deal with in all ways.
