Didn't really know where else to put this, but it kind of is important. I guess demand is going up for flights and companies like WestJet and Air Canada have more pricing power these days, which is reflective of a strong economy and disposable income coming back to Canadians.
I don't really remember the $1 flights though, that seems way too low, especially within Canada. Maybe Ryan Air in Europe but not here. Cheapest I remember them being was $29 to Abbottsford, or $39 to Vancouver.
Room for new airlines / new competition?

Can't say I recall ever seeing $1 flights within Canada. That would obviously have to be the base fare, plus however much in taxes & fees. Your base fare prices of $29 to $39 to Vancouver are as low as I can remember. Believe they usually worked out to just under $200 roundtrip after taxes, compared to a minimum of about $300 today.
