YXE/YQR-YVR would be my guess for a CRJ run that would be converted. A single E90 in the winter, but I bet they could make 2xdaily CRA work in place of the 2xCRJ.
Maybe. I think the problem would be J- YQR/YXE are known to be J-light destinations. I think if AC could, they'd put the Q400 on YXE/YQR-YVR!
I think Saskatchewan could see more CRAs on flights to YOW/YUL (ie. YXE-YOW-YUL and YQR-YOW-YUL) and maybe a YYZ rotation. AC did have a mix of E90s and E75s last summer...
It'll be interesting to see if the new 1xYVR E90 flights from each city will work out too.
