After having their initial launch run into some red tape troubles, New Leaf is back, offering some sorely needed competition in the Canadian market.

Winnipeg to Hamilton, Ontario - $193 CAD roundtrip including taxes
Winnipeg to Edmonton, Alberta - $198 CAD roundtrip including taxes
Winnipeg to Abbotsford, BC - $238 CAD roundtrip including taxes
Winnipeg to Victoria, BC - $238 CAD roundtrip including taxes
Be aware that New Leaf is a no-frills budget airline, similar to the model seen in Europe. Everything costs extra, beyond a personal item. A carry-on bag is $25. Your first checked bag is $30. complete list of fees
The last time New Leaf launched, WestJet and Air Canada responded by dropping their prices. That's what competition does. Keep an eye on YWG Deals for word of them doing so again!
