Canada Domestic/International Airport Improvement Fee $75.00
Canada Domestic/International Air Travel Security Charge $14.25
Canada Goods and Services Tax $2.50

Total per passenger $191.78

Why it's said free of YQ within NA as this thread Wiki?
Aeroplan charges YQ on AC metal, while M+B does not.
Similarly, Aeroplan doesn't charge YQ on TK, while M+B does.

This website might help you understand what YQ is with different program:
