The one things we will never find out is the vote pattern between narrowbody and widebody pilots. There are some narrowbody pilots who would vote no just to stick it to the Company. These pilots may never see the pointy end of a 777/787 except to catch a ride to their next 320 flight.
Your numbers are reasonably close, the rest of your post is erroneous at best. The vote pattern is completely immaterial.
With the number of aircraft this order represents it affects every pilot at Air Canada no matter what equipment they are on currently. The order also impacts a significant amount of pilots who have yet to be hired, due to the high level of attrition that is coming in the next decade.
