Congratulations on contributing to the success of the NoJetsTO campaign which prevented the expansion of the Toronto Island airport to enable the landing and takeoff of jet aircraft. Our 2 in-person screenings of ‘the City Island’ on July 13th and 20th drew well over 100 people each. Your input to the federal consultation and the Environmental Defense action letter made a difference. It convinced the federal government to put a stop to this airport expansion supported by Doug Ford’s government.
Here are articles from the newspapers, published on July 27, 2026:

Stay tuned for our next screening!
