“Toronto's Billy Bishop airport could not currently handle the Challenger 650 jet at full capacity, with its 3,988-foot runway. Recently, Ford said his government plans to take over the City of Toronto's stake in the island airport to expand the runway and allow jets to fly in and out.”
I called it! Ford wanted to change the airport only so his own personal government paid jet could take off from downtown.
The same reason why bike lanes had to be removed - because it slows down Your Highness Fnord II

@letoams I also called it. Obviously. People don’t just decide to buy a jet.
