Manchester though is a pretty large airport with a lot of connection possibilities. I believe BA does offer some trans Atlantic flights to Toronto and the USA, Montreal could potentially be a good city to add to that. 

BA has zero destinations from MAN to North America. In fact, they have zero interest in developing a hub or focus city out of MAN.

They fly to 4 destinations year round from MAN, and two of those are to London airports. The rest of the flights from MAN are all seasonal, and only to 10 other destinations. Hardly hub or focus city status for BA at MAN. 

All they are interested in is feeding their hub at LHR. Period. Same for AF through CDG.

I must have been thinking about old routes or routes from Glasgow or Prestwick. Seems a shame though, MAN is quite busy and would make s good Heathrow by-pass for some airline. BA and AF’s route strategy seems stuck in the past while Airlines around them are flying to secondary cities all over France and the UK. Look At Air Transat’s and AC Rouge’s penetration into the French market alone.
