I guess it's easy to obtain 15-20% off vouchers from AC so it makes the z fare a bit more close to the competition.
The new J seat on BR ex-YYZ is lie flat. Take a look at this presentation:

It looks very nice but it will not be until middle of next year before it becomes full *A member for points accrual.
It requires connection at TPE but it's sterile airside, nothing like via the U.S.A. It also does not have daily flight at the moment.
AC's Executive First seat is nearly six years old and wear and tear are evident in my recent travels. There are better design now.
