25 Euro with my seat selection. Taxes and fees in. That 400 Canadian above? Would be 440 or 450 with seat selection.

Fair points and I wont argue that. And yes it does suck, I'm just saying it's not an apples to apples comparison. We have so many differences here compared to the European model.
Dublin to London equivalent here would be Montreal Mirabal - Hamilton or Kitchener. That's another difference, the ULCC's don't serve the major airports a lot. And we expect our airlines to interline with others, the ULCC's don't do that. And boy do they shoehorn you into your seat, not a problem for a short flight but anything over 90 minutes would be agony.
I've flown them. Absolutely fantastic for a short point to point flight even if you pony up for seats, bags etc. Terrible for longer flights or if you need to connect.
