Still, the Canadian market is dominated by Air Canada and WestJet, although Doerksen says their portion of domestic seat capacity has shrunk in the last five years. According to National Bank, Air Canada has 41 per cent of domestic seats and WestJet has 30 per cent, down from Air Canada’s 48 per cent in 2019 and WestJet’s 34 per cent.
The government revised foreign ownership limits in 2016, lifting them to 49 per cent. Doerksen says whether fully eliminating foreign ownership restrictions will lead to more investment in the Canadian airline industry “is questionable.” He cites the example of Australia, which has no foreign ownership limits, but still has only two carriers.
