Free Ferry Rides Celebrate Airport Win | Toronto News

Toronto’s mayor and deputy mayor are celebrating the federal government’s decision to kill the Billy Bishop Airport expansion by offering free ferry rides to the islands for teens and seniors this August — funded by developer money, not taxpayers. It’s a victory lap for the community that rallied against the project, with leftover funds going toward dock upgrades. Meanwhile, the province insists the airport expansion is still vital for jobs and growth, and refuses to return waterfront lands seized under Bill 110 — a move the mayor calls a “land grab” she demands be reversed.
