Westjet offers $9 one way fare between YUL & YQR

<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">WestJet has invented a fun way for guests to explore the Montreal Alouettes' hometown. Canada's leading low-fare airline is offering a great $9 one-way Web fare for seats on Flight 668 from Regina to Montreal on Friday, Nov. 14, 2003, and returning from Montreal to Regina on Flight 607 on Monday, Nov. 17, 2003, for the same low $9 one-way Web fare, plus applicable fees and taxes.</font>
If AC did this, one of the posters would post what he did yesterday:

You mean AC operating a flight intentionally at a loss? Perhaps to drive out competitors? Or just to lose money? How can that be? AC is only in CCAA and the Competition Tribunal has ruled against it. But the AC I know would never, ever, ever run flights at a loss.

How can they make money at $9?
