No, I'm sure some here would like AC to route all flights through YWG or YEG for that matter which is unrealistic. YYZ is pretty much in the middle of the country and a midpoint in North America. THe only other city close is YUL. YYZ also has a population, including surrounding areas of over 5 million (probably more) people. What other city in Canada has this size population.

AC is going to alleviate some of the problems with the new RJs but keep in mind that these RJS are also going to be used on routes to fly us torontonians direct to places like kelowna on a daily basis as well.
