How many will remain active? 120/300?
Does this have anything to do with ACPA's scope grievance?

About 60% of the pilots are laid off. Any idea how that compares to other companies still operating in Canada?

AC has 600 out of 4300 on layoff. Subtract further from the 4300 for inactive (GDIP/management/etc). AC ran a reduction bid but also has a de facto worksharing agreement in place via MOA with all pilots on a monthly 63 hour minimum pay guarantee.

Jazz has approximately 600 out of 1500 on CEWS. Subtract further from the 1500 for inactive (med leave/management/etc). Jazz has not run a reduction bid but has via LOU downgraded 70 CA to FO and has agreed to schedule CA in the right seat on unbalanced rosters.

Both carriers are waiting for the crystal ball to become clearer. Multiple equipment type/multiple base operations make implementing further reductions and displacements both complicated and expensive. Jazz waiting for AC to provide guidance for Express flying for 2021. AC itself waiting to recalibrate estimates for 2022 which were the original foundation for the reduction bid.

SWG has 8 active pilots right now, doing a couple flights per week.

The rest of the 450 or so are on CEWS, unless they opted out and chose to go on EI.

The layoffs continue. Another 20 in February with nothing new from the MEC or management.
