According to a tweet from Airlineroute this morning:

Quote:
WestJet to operate Boeing 767 on Calgary - Toronto route from 02AUG15, once a day (5 weekly from 04SEP15)
I do believe these flights are serving a dual purpose of crew training and ETOPS certification (in preparation for the AB-Hawaii flights). Even though the flights are over land they are operated as if they are flying over an ocean.

Edit: One more tweet, during the winter season as they fly the AB-Hawaii routes:

Quote:
WestJet's Boeing 767 will continue to operate Calgary - Toronto route during winter season from 25OCT15 to 29MAR16, 4 times a week
