Except that real life doesn't offer that option. An airline isn't going to employ a guy who flies a quarter or less of everybody else.
There's not many countries that do the reserve fighter pilot thing. Mostly the US. And mostly because the US is so huge that there are plenty of folks who have non-flying careers outside the Air NG/Reserves. We just don't have that depth in Canada. Most countries don't. What we literally need is a guy/gal who is willing to fly 2-3x per week and then work as a real estate agent the rest of the time so they aren't running up on legal restrictions on total flight hours.
