I don't think anyone here said they can't see the point of YEG getting a flight to CDG, it would of course be good for YEG. But the idea is that AMS on KL is a far better connecting point than CDG, and as AF/KL is one company, it doesn't make sense to split the operation between CDG/AMS rather than make AMS go daily. What reason would there be for AF/KL to split the operation between AMS/CDG?
I mean YYC-AMS was daily for quite a while, even before WS' CDG flight, yet AF was not clamouring to start CDG from there either. YOW is also now going daily on AF, but it could've been kept at 4x weekly and instead KL could start 3x weekly YOW-AMS. But they didn't. Although YOW could arguably support 3x weekly AMS service too.
