In the case of AA they were orphans of the US Air marriage and only number 20. AA runs most of the RJs through subsidiary eagle ops where they have close to 200 175s. Air Canada is the same, an odd small number choice when the regional stuff is done by Jazz with pretty much a Canadian sourced fleet.
