Yes AC flies YYZ-ZRH daily, and it's part of the TATL JV.

I doubt there is enough demand for a second daily YYZ-ZRH, that would either mean they swap with AC for better aircraft utilisation(free birds/better aircraft capacity at LX none at AC, or LX brings higher fares/margin and would be beneficial for the JV, or worst scenario (for me at least being based in YUL) they swap LX to YYZ from YUL - that wouldn't be an addition in terms of destination - similar to what they did with OS when introducing YUL-VIE (AC flies from YYZ instead of OS, and OS flies from YUL)
