"We are pleased to offer new non-stop flights onboard our Bombardier Q400s between popular B.C. and Alberta cities as we continue to strategically expand our already extensive domestic network," said Benjamin Smith, president of passenger airlines at Air Canada.

"With the continued growth at several communities on Vancouver Island and in the B.C. Okanagan, we see the opportunity to add new non-stop services and provide additional convenient travel options."
