This is northern Canada. There are a lot of communities with no road access, but all of them have airports, and these airports are serviced regularly by many other carriers besides Buffalo. I didn't see any airports shutting down when Buffalo lost their license. Losing Buffalo would have no effect at all on northern airports.
