      Were jets not previous allowed to YTZ because of security reasons, or was it a capacity issue?

      Ford is going to deny new housing on the waterfront, which increases land value, generates tax revenue, and is a clear public good, to approve more flights that can’t be proven to actually make enough money to contribute to the city more than it costs to maintain.

      Fuck I hate this guy and what he represents.

      It’s just as well, he’s been looking to declare something as a ‘special economic zone’ since he learned the term last year. This is the least harmful version of that

      I hate Doug for a lot of reasons but this ain’t it. You can’t live in downtown Toronto and not expect noise. It is the most important commercial zone in the country, there will be noise.

      You especially can’t expect an airport that was likely already there when you moved in to stop developing now that you moved in. If you choose to live near an airport, this comes with the space.

      But most importantly, the types of jets that would land there are QUIETER than the prop planes that use that airport today. So this whole thing is just NIMBYism to it’s max.
