I believe it's because they have a kind of 'damp lease' agreement where they use the Canadian Sunwing flight crew, so not to have to increase their own UK flight crew numbers just for the sake of the summer season, plus union agreements if it was to be operated as a TOM flight on a G- reg aircraft. I appreciate that may be the case in those other respective countries. However, they'll have other types of local agreements in place with those crew.
