Don't think so.
I have a vague recollection of a group of about 40 of us were going
YVR-YOW. Half of us went on an Air Canada A320 and the rest on a
CP737-200. We departed within 30 minutes of each and arrived within
moments of each other, implying no stops. But this was 1998, long after
their Attache service was wrapped up I believe.
Must be going cuckoo in my elder years.
