Thanks!
It's your imagination. I've noticed ex YEG fares to W. Coast destinations dropping within past year, some as low as CAD$300 all in. Can't speak to every city in every season, but that's what I've been seeing out here.

Intra-USA will always look much lower than transborder because of the lack of additional taxes and heavy competative pressures that comes with a population ten times the size of our home and native land.
