Pressure on Toronto Liberal MP’s may be slowing momentum for jets at island airport. No time to let up. They can abandon Ford and stop it. They must.

The Toronto Port Authority has shared its early plans for the $5 billion expansion of Billy Bishop airport with provincial & federal officials, but is withholding this information from Mayor Olivia Chow and the public https://t.co/6Tz3OSaOHs #onpoli#cdnpoli#TOpoli

Doug Ford, on the island airport:
"private equity is going to invest over $5B, not a dollar of taxpayer money"

Look closely at this photo @VancityReynolds posted, and you’ll see the massive dirt piles of the West Island of Ontario Place.
Doug Ford destroyed a beautiful, bustling, waterfront park and animal habitat, all in service of a European MegaSpa company.

Doug Ford is pushing an expansion of Billy Bishop airport against Torontonians wishes while Liberal MPs remain silent. Instead of answering why, the Minister mocked me for asking!
(I am the NDP critic for Transport & the Minister knows this). @NoJetsTO@OntarioNDP
Today we’re launching our Federal E-Petition! Sponsored by @ElizabethMay, it calls for the government of Canada to say no to jets at the island airport and save our waterfront! Sign now: https://t.co/vYJvRBofpe #topoli#onpoli#cdnpoli
“It’s not that he was thinking about buying a jet, and now realizes that would be a bad idea. It’s that he bought a jet, and now wishes he hadn’t, so he wants to sell it as fast as he can to make the problem go away.”
But sure. He’ll stand up Trump.
