I believe Australia has looser foreign ownership limits, which is often presented as a solution for Canada, but it hasn’t seemed to work, either. But people in the industry will also point out the expectations are part of the problem. In a country where YVR-YYZ is one of the busiest routes and is over 2000mi, you can’t expect $100 fares to be economically sustainable. And with traffic pretty heavily concentrated on about 10 routes, it’s also hard to say that splitting flights on 3 or 4 more carriers is really realistic, either - there isn’t enough traffic for 6 or 8 carriers to operate multiple flights per day.
