My guess is we are relatively safe in the west, with perhaps the exception of LAS. In any case, it will be a non-issue until the current mainline fleet is completely deployed.
The existing A320/321s do not have the range (or the ETOPS certification) to fly to Europe from YYZ and YUL. The 7M8s do. Not that there is much difference between a standard economy seat on Rouge and the 7M8.
