Canadian Metro Airlines
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article is about two airlines, one that existed from 1939 to 1975 and the other was a failed start up from 2002 to 2009 that apparently never operated flights. Clearly, the failed start up is non notable. I am not finding any coverage that indicates that the earlier airline was notable. Delete for failure to satisfy WP:NCORP. A similar article was deleted at AfD in 2008. Safiel (talk) 16:37, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment As I was setting this AfD up, another user deleted the information about the failed start up, which is just fine. So this AfD is just on the older airline now. Safiel (talk) 16:40, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Doesn't seem notable and no sources to support the content. Meatsgains (talk) 20:38, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment. We almost always find scheduled, operating commercial airlines that have actually flown to be notable, and I would certainly think this would be true of an airline that lasted for decades and flew intercontinental routes as this one supposedly did.  But the problem is, there seems to be no evidence to substantiate the content of the article.  Nothing is provided, and I couldn't find anything; the sources in the edit history are vague at best. --Arxiloxos (talk) 23:27, 19 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment, there is not a single hit for 'Canadian Metro Airlines' on google books. An airline operating 1939-1975 should have a few hits there. --Soman (talk) 15:20, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
