#ONpoli BREAKING: Doug Ford's Gravy Plane - which he sold to Chartright - was just chartered for a flight to the UK... to the exact same airport where Vic Fedeli is attending an airshow. That's right - it appears that the Ford government is still using the $29M gravy plane!!!

I’m really grateful to, and respect, Etobicoke-Lakeshore MPP, and OLP leadership candidate, Lee Fairclough (@LFairclo) for taking a principled and unequivocal stand against Doug Ford’s reckless “plan” for Toronto’s waterfront. We have a better plan - a balanced combination of healthy communities, recreational opportunities, amazing parks, economic development and a regional airport on the island that’s easy to deal with and works. Ford’s pie-in-the-sky proposal to bring jets to Billy Bishop Airport and increase it to take on 10 million passengers (with no public plan or business case) would cost $5 billion, increase the price of air fares, worsen traffic, pave a massive runway and blast wall on our lake, impact housing and affect the health and livability of our waterfront neighbourhoods.

Billy Bishop airport exists next to one of the biggest bird migration paths in the world. The Toronto Waterfront—in particular Tommy Thompson Park and the Toronto Islands—are home to some 330 different species, including large birds like Canada geese, swans, cormorants, herons and ducks. What happens when a Canada goose meets a jet engine? What will happen if Doug Ford gets his way and puts jets on Toronto Island?

"HDI lawyer Aaron Detlor: They don't really want to get into a meaningful engagement with us because the first thing I'm going to do is ask for all of the communications that have transpired between province, @TOPortAuthority & federal govt. By all, I mean all." #ONpoli #cdnpoli

Carney's already sold us out... the fix is in. JPM gets the YTZ expansion, Carney gets the war bank, and Ford, w McNaughton and Nigro, get Palantir Central - the Convention Centre-CNE-Ontario Place-whats left of islands.

Request launched with federal Lobbying Commissioner for investigation into undisclosed lobbying by JP Morgan bank to get Carney’s approval for massively expanded Toronto island airport environmentaldefence.ca/2026…

I am a signatory to this letter. Open, fully informed and unbiased public hearings are required, supported by due diligence and meaningful analysis. The public cannot be expected to provide informed feedback when neither the proposal nor its impacts have been properly presented. Forgive us for being suspicious, but all we have so far is a process the Province deliberately rushed into place to cut Torontonians out, and a federal consultation process built around a survey that reflects neither the complexity of the issue nor the information needed to properly evaluate it.

Liberal MPs, be more like your colleague Liberal MP Judy Sgro, who displays a solid understanding of the issues at hand when it comes to expanding a tightly constrained airport on our downtown waterfront! theglobeandmail.com/politics… #topoli #cdnpoli

In this article, we have a strong response from Liberal MP Rob Oliphant, who recognizes the important role city plays in the tripartite agreement, and that expanding Pearson makes a lot more sense! thestar.com/politics/federal… #topoli #cdnpoli

The debate over Billy Bishop Airport isn't just about jets vs. noise, it's about future of Toronto’s waterfront. For many, the harbour is cottage country. Do we take that away for increased flights? Or continue to restore the connection to Lake Ontario? open.substack.com/pub/waterk…

JP Morgan-controlled Nieuport Aviation hired Doug Ford's former deputy chief of staff to lobby the premier on "legislative options" related to Billy Bishop airport #onpoli

No One Asked For Toronto Landmarks to be destroyed! BOYCOTT @Nieuport and @JPMorganAM as they need stay off Toronto Island lands and halt their expansion plans that will destroy our beautiful waterfront Doug Ford must RESIGN ! #FightFord #Ontario #onpoli

Billy Bishop Airport isn’t just runways and gates. It’s our waterfront, our air, our neighborhoods. Expanding it means more noise over homes and dirtier air for kids in #TOwaterfront. People over planes. Stop the expansion. #ONpoli #BillyBishop

If PM @MarkJCarney doesn’t think he’ll pay a heavy price by going along w/ Pr @fordnation ‘s airport expansion the majority of Torontonians don’t want, he isn’t paying attn. Esp as the facts about the US ownership grp behind it, are now well known. thestar.com/opinion/star-col…

Doug Ford ran on protecting Ontario from American threats. Then he handed Toronto’s waterfront to JP Morgan. Nieuport Aviation, controlled by America’s largest bank, owns the Billy Bishop terminal. They bought it for $750 million and have been losing money ever since. So Ford introduced legislation to seize Toronto’s own land, override the city, and deliver the airport expansion JP Morgan needs to make its investment whole. One of the lobbyists pushing this deal? A former senior Ford aide. The revolving door didn’t even slow down. The Building Billy Bishop Act lets Ford expropriate almost all of the Toronto Islands. City officials warn it means gridlock, pollution, and harbour degradation. Nobody asked for this. The only winner is a New York bank. Captain Canada. Protecting Ontario from the Americans, by handing them our waterfront. Mark Carney has the power to stop this. And he’d better!!

OFFS it’s true! Ford is selling off Ontario’s prime waterfront to an American bank by expanding Billy Bishop Airport! His whole Captain Canada 🇨🇦 BS was just to get reelected! If he loves Trump and wants to be an American so bad he should quit and move back there! #FightFord 🤬

The Billy Bishop Airport isn't an under-utilized jewel to be expanded. It's sitting on 210 acres of Toronto's real & unique jewel: the Toronto Islands. Unless I'm missing something, no other major city in the world overlooks a fresh water harbour and island paradise like this.
