I would posit that after so many years of rapid expansion at Air Canada the balance is likely to tip in WestJet's favour soon of it hasn't already. The main reason being the schedule and time off. Also 4 years of low probationary pay is a big negative for Air Canada.
Although upgrades take longer at WestJet now, that will likely change soon with Onex deal and joint venture, I would also add that with the backlog of quality FOs, there will be great pool to draw future captains from with little challenge. This is another good news for Onex.
Having said all that, one should work towards landing a job somewhere that makes them most happy. Life is too short and too precious to be spent working somewhere unhappy.
