I'm going to answer my own question here:
I played around on ExpertFlyer, and it looks like for the months I searched next year (March and April), all of the G buckets on UA leaving from YYZ were totally zero'ed out (and in fact were 0 up until very high fare classes like B). From Asia back to YYZ there was lots of low-bucket seat availability.
I'm not sure what to make of this.
