This is incredibly well articulated. Westjet has pissed away every bit of goodwill from me and I fly ac now any chance I get.

But before you try this please remember this is one way and likely you'll want your car back home.
Greyhound...55 hours of comfort and wonderful smelling people for the low cost of $220.00, another bonus is the truck stop food (not free though)
Westjet...3 hours 30 minutes. as low as $300.00 if you shop. and free pretzels!
Moral of the story...stop friken bitching about extra fees and your long legs.

300 dollars return to Toronto and back? Please. Try 500. Also there's no such thing as shopping for airfares in canada. The price is the price. This is a duopoly; not a bazaar in Calcutta selling spices.
