BA is a Viable OneWorld Option to CP
I have always found OneWorld far supeior to Star Alliance. Since CP dropped out of OneWorld earlier this month - leaving no Canadian airline in the OneWorld alliance - I approached BA as a Platinum member of CP.
They were most accommodating and I have joined their FF program. Hopefully one of the emerging new Canadian carriers will pick up on OneWorld paving the way for accruing OneWorld points on domestic flights in Canada.
