I don't think anyone is going to spit on you for your decision to apply to Canjet. An opportunity for you is nothing more than an opportunity for YOU. Take it.

"As far as were we fly to... Most of the Carribean, west coast of Mexico. Some charter work."

Sorry? I thought all Canjet did was 'charter' flying.

FWIW

There is presently "an issue" with an Australian carrier who were recently reinstated to fly by CASA. That issue has to do with foreign (Southeast Asian) pilots flying their aircraft, amongst other safety related issues. Most Australian pilots can tell you how they feel about 'foreign' pilots taking jobs away from national pilots in a similar fashion to here in Canada.
In fact, the pilot union at that airline has filed with IFALPA to block that move by their employer to use those foreign pilots in their Australian operation. Imagine?

We're still waiting to hear from ALPA (Canjet pilots) where they stand on a very similar issue right here at home.
Let's see? Pilot Union vs Ken Rowe = Shutdown the airlilne.

Nah. That ain't gonna happen anytime soon.
