Mark Carney has declined to rule out ever having commuter jets fly into Billy Bishop airport, but said his government is focused on improving Toronto’s transport network in other ways — including an expansion at Pearson airport.

Again it's vital to point out this approach by the PM makes Canada weaker not stronger: bsky.app/profile/sust... I find deeply weird - from a historic perspective - that anyone would think you can resist the U.S. by becoming *more* capitalistic. The opposite is true, especially in an influence war.
