There is not a lot of hiring of direct entry captains at any of the airlines in Canada. Royal Airlines (now part of Canada 3000) used to hire contract captains on a fairly regular basis. I am not sure if they still do or not.
Your only choices outside of the Air Canada "family" are Air Transat, SkyService and WestJet for medium to large jet jobs. If you want to fly night freight there is Kelowna Flightcraft, Morningstar and All Canada Express.
I work at WestJet and I know that we do not hire DEC. My guess is that pickings will be pretty slim.
Good Luck, I I can help anymore email me at
