Crombie warns of “a very large” island airport

Former Mayor David Crombie has told a meeting of No Jets TO supporters Monday night that there should be no doubt about the ultimate outcome if Porter Airlines is allowed to operate jets out of Billy Bishop Airport on Toronto Island. Mr. Crombie said that it was inevitable that many other airlines like Air Canada and West Jet would reasonably expect to use the airport too and that what any expansion represented was the creation of a very large airport. Other speakers included former mayor David Miller. The meeting was held at the OISE auditorium on Bloor Street.
