In my defense, I buy plenty of Tango Plus tickets from Air Canada at close to $1000 to fly YYZ-ATL, YYZ-CLT, YYZ-ORD. Problem is those tickets typically earn me 1000 status miles round trip. So I would say that I contribute plenty AC's coffers! I just don't get many miles for my dollars spent compared to those who travel overseas.
