I guess it all depends on where you are seated at the round table on how you view the aviation situation in Canada if not the world....
Aviation is a mess in Canada partly because of government interference but that is only part of the problem. We don't have the population base to support two airlines, period. Niche players yes, major airlines no.
We are definitely a nation of complainers who want the government to look after us from cradle to grave, but we don't want to pay the price tag associated with that type of society.
Only in Canada you say, Pity....
