But the CR9 is hardly a terrible ride.

You're right. I mistakenly put in YYZ vs YUL. YYZ was just a tad shorter..

And yes, I also think that CR9 is perfectly adequate. Sure, not great if you like to stand up, but otherwise it's perfectly fine. While I'd much rather be on a 747 or A330, or even a 767, I personally also don't mind CR9 on the longer routes, such as SLC-YVR or MSP-YVR.

The CS300 ("A220-300") of course is much nicer still. (DL only has the smaller variant of it though, but I presume it's the same as the larger CS300 save for the length.)
