To just blindly accept that Emirates having up to 10 or 15 more flights a week to Canada will somehow create 1900 extra jobs and 26 million in taxes is a perfect example of how naive some people can be
As is the notion that daily service from Emirates and Etihad will somehow lose 10000 jobs or whatever the quoted number was

Porter is not making money out of YTZ. They have yet to turn a profit and have a load factor barely over %50.
So why do Air Canada want to operate out of the island then if the slice of pie is that small? Competition perchance??
