Open Skies between Canada and the Dominican

I get what you're saying, but even an agreement as "limited" as this one is still a good thing for consumers. It's amazing how restrictive a lot of Canada's international air services agreements still are--even Canada's with India (which was recently expanded) is still limited to only a handful of Indian and Canadian cities.

Obviously Canada doesn't need an open skies agreement with every single country on the planet. But destinations that see a lot of traffic to and from Canada--like the Dominican Republic--definitely need one.

ARAjet probably heard how easy it is to ignore APPR and wanted the join in the fun.
