And they apparently operate three 767s... Which those alone could fly HI and fly a lot more air freight

But I to admit I haven't been following currency between Canadian Loonies vs USD. If it's not favorable that increases the cost.
A foreign airline cannot have a majority stake in a Canadian based airline. It maxes at 25% or 49% I believe.
