Where I live their isn't a lot of choice so it is generally easiest and cheapest just to search the Air Canada and Westjet websites although this might be different in eastern Canada. In my experience though Westjet is usually the same price or slightly cheaper than Air Canada and Westjet is a lot nicer to fly with. They have less delays, more comfortable planes, don't lose your luggage as often and have far friendlier staff.

Hope this helps!

Like anywhere else, it will depend on your airport of departure. In Saskatoon, there's a choice between Air Canada, WestJet, United, and Delta (Northwest) for flights to the US. In the meantime, Calgary/Edmonton has several more options. Just use the search engines you would normally use (Travelocity, Orbitz, etc).

If you're near the border, jet blue can sometimes have some pretty sweet deals but they're pretty limited as to where they fly to...
