Usually, airlines will use the scheduled (gate-to-gate) time to determine service levels. However, note that WestJet's language is "Most flights over 2.5 hours", so they are giving themselves some wiggle room.

Having said that, I'd be surprised if any of WestJet's non-Encore ex-YYC or ex-YVR routes to the US didn't have a full meal service, even if they were a little under the 2.5 hour threshold.

"2.5 hours" means 2 hours and 30 minutes, so SFO-YYC should include a full meal.
