This is it entirely. Westjet, the plucky underdog regional third carrier had amazing service. It needed to to compete against Air Canada and Canadian. Westjet the national/international carrier that is going head to head with Air Canada is not the same thing. I'll still fly them - my next trip is on WestJet - but if prices are close or if the flight is >3 hours, Air Canada is by far my preferred option.
