Doesn't have to fly to IAH/PHX/YHZ. YUL would have so many places they can use that extra narrowbody or Express plane freed up by cancelling route. Similarly, AC didn't move the YYC-FRA to YUL (the second daily FRA from YUL began this year, not next year). That extra widebody is partially used to add YUL-MAD, and the rest of the capacity redistributed to a bunch of other routes out of YUL.
