Push for jets at Toronto island airport officially dead
Porter Airlines’ push to bring jet service to an expanded Toronto island airport is officially dead.

PortsToronto, the federal port authority, said in a statement it has halted work on an environmental assessment and two studies requested by city council in 2014.

“PortsToronto will complete the technical work currently underway, but will not proceed with further public engagement-related activities pertaining to the Porter Proposal to introduce jets,” said chief executive Geoffrey Wilson in a statement.
