The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday edition that Ontario Premier Doug Ford is vowing to forge ahead with the expansion of the runways at Toronto's Billy Bishop Airport to allow jets -- and a provincial source says his government would consider taking over the city's stake in the facility if the municipality objects. The Globe's Jeff Gray and Laura Stone write that on Monday, Mr. Ford repeated comments he has made in recent days supporting the expansion of the airport and allowing jets to land there, instead of the current fleets of turboprop passenger planes run by Porter Airlines and Air Canada. The has long been governed by a decades-old tripartite agreement between the city, the federal Ports Toronto and the federal government. This deal bans jets, which have long been contentious along Toronto's waterfront, where activists have warned of noise, disruption and safety concerns. Landing jets has also been vigorously opposed in the past by Mayor Olivia Chow. A provincial source said that if consensus could not be reached, the province would consider using its powers to expropriate the city out of its interest in the airport. Mr. Ford said his idea to allow jets has the support of the federal government.
