I book and fly YYJ-YVR quite frequently. Normally it is to start a new itinerary with my sun pass out of YVR. It is therefore a separate PNR for the short one way flight.
I know a lot of the Pacific Pilotage use AC on YYJ-YVR. There are dozens of ships per day, and the Pilots tend to work one way and fly the other. In fact, I know one who is SE, and never flies any other AC route.
