I've never made SE, but post-Covid I suddenly have to work to keep my 75K. Hoping for lifetime *G at some point, but I've got a lot of miles to go. I agree that YKF would be convenient, but in your situation I'd probably stick to AC.
I kind of don't think ULCCs should be a thing in the first place for environmental reasons (I wish we had better train connectivity) but also here I am having requalified for 75k. That makes me a bit elitist I guess. We're all full of contradictions.
In the context of YKF, I might do it if I was flying YKF-YUL (which I've done once on Bearskin Airlines when they tried to offer that), and I tried YKF-YYC once. Generally, because of status plus NEXUS, YYZ just works better, although it's indeed further.
I did make SE once in the 00s before the $20k spend requirement. I'm about 300k away from MM.
