It doesn't matter how often this "favorable framework in Canada" thing is repeated, it does not make it true. Canada has some of the most restrictive policies in the world, second only probably to the US. This article reinforces that. The Canadian government is inviting US companies to come fly in Canada, only if they have a COA or SOC, which are almost impossible to get? Or how about forming a new company headquartered in Canada, and restricting operations to a testing ground in frozen Alberta? And/or, waiting 20+ days for a permit for every flight.
