Look at Westjet, they don't ask for their FO's to pay for a type rating, because they want you to have experience on type, the end result is the same, they don't have to invest in you for training. Which means the financial risk is removed. The same is true for virgin blue, and the same is true of GOL, all LCC's all flying the 737-800.
767-200 - sorry mate but you are taking an example in isolation without painting the bigger picture with regards to the Canadian aviation industry. Pilot career progression in Canada is in many ways the antithesis of what its becoming in Europe. There ARE companies in Canada that will back your TR and training - admittedly many now bond (Sunwing for example) but they expect you to stay a min time before moving on. Like it USED to be here. Before that, guys start in small MEP Air Taxi ops, then onto TP's then onto the likes of Sunwing, Jazz etc. So your argument is unfortunately rather flawed. Yes WJ source experienced TR'd pilots, but good luck finding one that has "adapted to whatever situation" and paid for it.
You speak of "low cost bases" and "forwarding the financial risk on to the applicant" You can use whatever rhetoric you like, but at the end of the day it is YOU the applicant that is driving market conditions and allowing airlines like the LO CO's to achieve these low cost bases. Don't come across as being just a latent pawn on the chess board. You play a pivotal role.
I hate to say it but its an undeniable fact that you project yourself as being somewhat sanctimonious - where has all this wisdom come from for a 20yr old? Your biological age does formulate opinion - wisdom should tell you that at least.
