Ontario touts $8.5B annual economic impact from Toronto Island airport expansion — but won't show the math

May 19, 2026

But weeks after first touting that claim, neither the province nor the Toronto Port Authority, which owns the airport, has provided any evidence to support it. Several experts say they're skeptical.
