I agree with your posting. However, the reality for pilots in Canada pre-empts the return for many of those who went overseas.
For several reasons.
Once you've gotten a taste of the overseas realities, your return to this country will be anything but the happy experience you'd expect it to be.
Right now there are so many pilots from failed companies walking the streets and standing in line for what 'table scrap' jobs are out there, it's difficult to reason and/or understand why anyone would even want to fly aeroplanes in this country in the first place.
We still have to wait for AC pilots to 'stop kicking their toys out of their crib' to see IF they're going to even survive. If that all comes crashing down there will be even more long faces standing in even longer lines for what little 'table scrap' jobs might be available. (IMHO)
Anyone looking to start up any kind of carrier right now may well be advised to stay away from 'the bitter ones' circulating throughout the country and go with whomever remains unspoilt.

Just a thought.
