Yes it is, we never had this many mainline United flights at YYZ. Denver/Houston/Chicago have mainly been Express.
We now have 3 ORD, 2 DEN, IAH, SFO - seven mainline United flights daily - not to mention up to 18 daily E175s to EWR/IAD/ORD/IAH.

I count 24 United flights today out of YYZ - the most flights UA has out of any foreign city? Even LHR has less



Considering AC transborder flights are always delayed, and often cancelled, this is a very welcomed capacity build up

As for the relationship, maybe we can start by the AC lounge stopping purposely not displaying United flights on the inside the lounge departure boards.
