There seems to be potentially a new entrant in the Western Canadian marketplace, Canada Jetlines (dba "Jetlines"):
Canada Jetlines: Ultra-low cost carrier being proposed for Western Canada | Financial Post
The concept of a minimalist, western-based carrier, starting with a very small fleet and with tight cost control, seems eerily reminiscent of WestJet's start. On the Avcanada site, there already has been some comment that this is merely a stalking horse to beat WS's pilots into accepting a harsh contract settlement.
Not sure there is sufficient traffic in Western Canada to support another carrier, although if fares are as low as indicated, this might generate a market.
