Looks like we are starting to see the effects of AC's partnership with PAL on the east coast: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfo...offs-1.6959984.

AC pulling out of YYR completely. Unclear if PAL will pickup the YYR-YHZ route. If not, that's a tough blow for folks in Labrador - means they'll have to backtrack to YYT to access the rest of AC's network.

EDIT: Looks like this route is being offered as "Air Canada Express - PAL" after October.
