Biggest reason.
Air Canada and WestJet has the duopoly. There are tiny ones and charters but they can't compete with the big 2 at the moment.

As mentioned, Canada does not have an efficient and affordable rail system. The buses are also inefficient.
CK.
Uhhh... What?
Calgary to Vancouver is a cakewalk lol.
Rail isn't an option right now because no one wants to cough up the money. VIARail is also very pricey.
Red Arrow isn't too bad. Has WiFi in the bus.
