Sold out or canceled? I read somewhere even if they cancel a flight they list it as sold out on their site.

Could also be technical problems with the plane related to the weather. In that YouTube video of the guys who flew/drove/took the train to Toronto, the guy who flew was delayed severely because it was too cold for the plane to start, so his flight was cancelled. This week is going to be another double-digit negative one so maybe they’ve just given up until it gets warmer.

The Waterloo Airport flight status has nothing for FlyGTA departures for tomorrow - so I'm guessing they're all cancelled flights.
I don't think we ever had confirmation that they list cancelled flights as sold out. Just our conjecture based on what we've seen happening.
Edit: Also, I don't think its a big deal for them to be cancelling flights this week. It's reasonable that demand is down and/or they don't have the additional capacity to handle vacations/maintenance work so cancel flights during down time.

The optics for future customers play better to say “Sold Out!” than “CANCELLED”.
Do they have a twitter account? Might be easiest just to ask them what’s up.

There's a real possibility that its more just a software 'bug' ('feature'?) and not intentional dishonesty.
