Why are Air Canada Jazz hiring requirements "tighter" than regular Air Canada?
Air Canada Jazz requires you to have a Airline Transport Pilot License, while regular Air Canada, just requires you to have a Commercial License.Why is this?
Also... Air Canada Jazz requires you to have have a minimum of 1,500 hours fixed wing flight experience, while regular Air Canada, just a 1000.
Air Canada Jazz requires you to have a 1,000 Pilot In Command, while Air Canada, none. And Air Canada Jazz requires you to have 500Hrs multi-engine, while Air Canada, requires none.

Why is this, is it because regional airlines have a bad record?
