- YHZ will be the hub for the PAL Maritime route network. The whole scheme is designed to drive traffic to YHZ, and to support connecting traffic which might lead to more profitability for transcontinenyal and international flights originating at that airport.
- PAL will be providing a needed intraprovincial route from Sydney to Halifax, which will benefit Cape Breton tremendously. It is in Nova Scotia's interest to fund this route.

I agree that NS will reap the lion's share of the benefits from this scheme, followed by PEI. To be honest, in some ways I'm not sure why NB is even involved. YFC-YHZ makes some sense but Moncton, especially if YQM-YHZ has a stop in YFC, seems a stretch.
Did AC (or Jazz) ever run several flights a day from Moncton to Halifax the way they did from YSJ before the pandemic? Was there ever a business case for this route?
