I'll wait a little longer to see what the chances are these flights being cancelled and AC routing anyone booked via YYZ or YUL. At this point flights look extremely empty in February and I doubt they would fly a half empty 787 to CUN, though we did have a flight on SWISS with only 12 Economy passengers on a A340 from YUL to ZRH.
You're right to worry about YUL-CUN getting swapped to a 319, that's a definite possibility. It really looks like AC's just sort of throwing 330s at those Sun routes to see if they get lucky, then downgauging anything that doesn't sell.

And yes, YYC-CUN is just inside the non-stop range of a 319.
