    WestJet is having a similar sale right now... specifically for Edmonton the flights are the same price, but WestJet tends to be cheaper as they don't charge as much tax.

      And for those that did not know......Westjet and Air Canada both offer direct non stop flights to Toronto from Victoria. Which means you can be back in Toronto almost as fast as someone traveling to Vancouver from Victoria by ferry!

      The last flights I booked had similar taxes between Westjet and Air Canada.

        No summer sale from Montreal to Edmonton?

          It looks like the sale applies to Edmonton or Victoria from any other city in Canada. Fares are as low as 175 each way before tax for Montreal to Edmonton. Seems like a reasonable fare to me.

            Both Air Canada and Westjet offer $175 flights each way between Montreal and Edmonton. However - you must travel on any day except Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or Monday. Otherwise - the one-way fare is $200.

            With taxes, two $175 flights comes out to approximately $478; two $200 flights is approximately $534.

            Air Canada has three daily non-stop flights between Montreal and Edmonton; Westjet has one.
