Greetings,
In case you haven’t seen the announcement from Ottawa, the federal government has halted the proposed expansion of Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport.
To everyone who took the time to raise concerns, attend meetings, write letters, submit comments, and make your views known to elected officials: take a moment to savour this outcome.
It’s not often that there is such a clear line between community advocacy and a government decision. The Minister’s statement acknowledges the more than 87,000 responses received through the public consultation and confirms that Toronto voices shaped the outcome.
Thank you to everyone who played a part.
