Edit: Oh, it is Canada Jetlines, apparently back from the dead!
To be fair to NewLeaf, they only got started the other month!
Agree with you that these things need to be taken with a big grain of salt. More than likely both of these latest ventures fail, but it's not a certainty and it's exciting to see things happening (well, planned to be happening) at southern Ontario airports that aren't Pearson.
