If you mean WORK for, not Air Canada. They don't seem to like to work.

I take back what I said. It seems they want to work but are flying aircraft that break down a lot. Can't blame them for that.

Thanks guys! Pretty interesting results so far, with West Jet in 1st and Jazz a close 2nd... Could this mean pilots are actually more interested in lifestyle, not metal?

Looks like it and if you are interested in a good lifestyle and very diverse and challenging flying go with either of the northern airlines, First Air or Canadian North.

The poll may also just be a popularity contest with those responding already employed with their respective airline and we know there are a lot of WJ and Jazz people here.

Just curious then who you would like to work for? Or in what field? Corporate, Heli, Ag, waterbomber, survey, etc...?

Perhaps this could also be a question of what field of aviation you would like to work? Not meaning to 7500 this thread. Maybe not my place to change it.

Corporate flying....
I had always wanted to fly for AC until I accidentally ended up in corporate and never looked back. Great money, amazing schedule, great layovers. When AC called years ago I couldn't stomach the huge paycut!

That is the million dollar question. All I Ask for is an uninterrupted career from this point on until I retire.

Always wanted to fly a 4 engine airplane for Air Canada but it will be in my retirement dreams. I suppose I can always buy a model of the A340and practice T/O and landings on the coffee table
