For the sake of clarity, can you name the 6 + 1 Canadian 'jet type airlines' please? The usual rundown of Canadian airlines goes Air Canada, Westjet/Swoop, Porter, Air Transat and Flair. Porter don't fly jets.
Most of those Canadian airlines have reasonable to significant international operations, they're not purely domestic. That's one of the benefits of having all of the rest of North America just over the border.
