Affordable Airfare Decreasing?

Skyservice has just announced that it will be ceasing business. Does this mean affordable travel in Canada is getting more difficult? Canada suffers from limited competition already. Loosing another airline option makes it less competitive. One one hand, Canada is a small market and cannot sustain too much competition. On the other hand limited competition keeps rates higher than our US neighbours. I regularly hear of people driving across the border to get flights at 1/3 of the price in Canada. Shame!
