As for the Embrarers, its quite apparent as to why they are at Air Canada. One of the only mainline carriers in the world to operate a so called regional jet. However, a very smart tactic by ACPA. In the USA, the 50 set jet has become inefficient as the costs of fuel has risen with a slowing economy. The yields are shrinking everyday and the high frequency model is losing its appeal.

It all makes sense. Jazz loses the RJ 100/200's and we get more Dash 8's. What a surprise, AC gets to keep us right where they want us. Flying the noise makers through the crap below them. This is just a stab in the dark, but Canada normally follows behind the U.S., and it wouldnt shock me if AC started cutting Jazz's flying back and putting more E/190's on alot of routes that Jazz presently operates on the Rj. More orders for the e/190 and AC makes Jazz a truly regional airline. YVR-YYJ-YVR-YKA-YVR-YCD. yipee.

The day we see the embrarers is the day that we see palm trees in the Arctic from global warming.

How do you figure that a 100 passenger Trans Continental Jet is a "Regional" airplane ? Which "regionals" in the U.S are you referring to that are flying the E-190?
