Flight Cancellation Rate
Is there a way to find out the number of times a flight is cancelled in a given month or so?
In particular - I'm interested in CO 3335/3336 (CLE-ORD) operated by CHQ. It seems like it is cancelled a lot, and since this is a flight at a good time to get home, I'd like to figure out how smart it is to book on this flight.
Thanks!

If you know the frequency (e.g. what days not to expect a flight), the history on Flightaware might give you a good idea. You have to register (free) for 4 months of history.

According to flightstats.com, 3 flights cancelled out of 50. 6% cancellation rate.
