Canada's two largest cities re located south of Seattle. If Delta can make Detroit work, I am sure Air Canada could make Toronto work as a hub.

I know many people do the reverse, but I have not heard of people choosing Canada over the US unless it was for an international flight.
The thing I would be interested in seeing is Porter airlines. If they ever are able to fly the C-Series from YTZ, I could see them offering a strong connection network from the North East. Most other airports already have S preclearance, so US connections could easily be done without having to go through much. But then again I dont see either country in support of that idea.
