YMIA is indeed a Cat C airport. This means that for the 738 it would not be PLANNED as an alternate. This does not mean that it cannot be USED as an alternate.
It is not defined as an emergency airport.
Not sure but i think the difference between cat c for the 738 versus cat a for the 734 relates to the ACN for each type.
