YVR-DUB at ~3,800nm is more likely for off season to make it a year round service. But I’d honestly be surprised if YVR sees any international flights with the 321XLR.
YVR-TYO is unlikely to switch away from being a wide body. AC has run YVR-KIX off and on both with mainline and Rouge. It could certainly return with the XLR (although unlikely at the moment).
