http://www.farecompare.com because it shows you the cheapest published fares on routes--regardless of airline, days, times, etc.--and you track it down on a calendar that shows available days at that fare. Just checksee if Southwest, Allegiant, or other low-cost airlines that don't allow 3rd party bookings, are on your route--check your airport's website for a list of airlines serving it. This+Farecompare=Cheapest Airfares.
Booking through the airline's website is almost always cheaper than booking through those websites. Those sites almost never have cheaper fares than the airline - 99% of the time the fare is exactly the same - and they charge "booking fees" so they're actually more expensive than the airline's website. You can always check those sites to see which airline has the lowest fare but I would go to the airline's website as well. Also if you're flying to somewhere that one of the "low-fare" airlines (i.e. JetBlue, Southwest Airlines) flies, then check their websites too - although they're often not the cheapest either.
Kayak is OK, but nothing beats a real travel agent who actually knows how to access wholesale airline fares. (Not just any agent who took some kind of course and then worked for a major travel retailer.) The sites you mentioned don't even compare to what you can get from a Canadian travel agent, and in fact are extremely expensive. Try a company called Emerald travel in Petawawa, Ontario. Can't go wrong.
try kayak.com its the best ive found
