I guess YOW is not on their radar.

BA couldn't make YYC work with their 787s once they retired their 767s. They don't have the right sized aircraft to service YYC (or YOW) since their smallest 787-8 has 35 Club World seats which would be a lot to fill from YOW.
YOW's sweet spot was likely the ~211 seat 767. Yes, I know AC would have upgraded YOW to the 788 or A330 in peak seasons, but that plane would be too large for the current travel trends.
Edit: I should add, that I do think AC could make YOW work this summer (2023) with their 788 if they could get back to 2019 levels of travel for next season.
