		In the early 1940s, Canadian Pacific purchased ten bush airlines in a short time span, finishing with the purchase of Western Canadian Airlines in 1942, to form Canadian Pacific Airlines.
		In 1987, due to sporadic profits in the 1980s, CP decided to sell its airline to Pacific Western Airlines for $300 million and assume the airline's debt of $600 million.

	Canadian pacific air lines ltd. v. British columbia, 1989 CanLII 94 (S.C.C.)
		The three airlines appealed that Court's decision as it related to the tax on aircraft and aircraft parts and the province cross-appealed that decision as it related to the tax on alcoholic beverages.
		In the case of the airlines' aircraft and parts brought into the province, the tax, by virtue of administrative formulae not provided by statute, is applied only in respect of flights originating from, terminating in, or connecting two points in the province.
		The airlines' first appeal relating to taxes on the aircraft and parts should be allowed and the province's cross-appeal relating to taxes on alcoholic beverages sold in aircraft while in airspace should be dismissed with costs.

	Freedom to Fly
		Once an airline obtained a license to serve two points, it was not suddenly free to do as it wished.
		In certain cases the airlines deal with seasonal variations in traffic by increasing or decreasing the frequency of service,[147] but this alternative is not always possible on some of the routes which link certain regional centres to the rest of the country.
		Even where the service could be justified by the traffic on the route, the east-west nature of most domestic airline flights combined with Canada's six time zones often meant that the airlines were required by law to offer flights at times of the day which were generally undesirable for the travelling public.
