All I know is that PR hacks are trying to say theirs is bigger than the other. I'm trying to dig out what this other announcement is...

Has to be YEG or city. Provincial Gov officials can't talk right now.

The YEG could have an announcement with Stelmach, but that would be just stupid.

What are the chances that it could be BA? They are doing well on the YYC-LHR run, so perhaps they want to give YEG a shot as well? Do they have any spare metal though?

No bilateral allowance, and since the announcement didn't include a federal minister unlikely.
