Aircraft routing is very complex. Having it parked somewhere doing nothing is not an option. Porter even have less of an option given aircraft availability. As for Jazz, they could do the same as Westjet with a smaller plane but again, yeilds must not be there. Citing an airline that went only charter (Canjet) is probably not the best business case.

A long time ago, CanJet was a scheduled carrier too. It was then that they had the St. John's-Moncton route. WestJet will soon be getting the same turboprops as Porter. I could see either of them using this plane on a St. John's-Moncton-Toronto route.
