OPEN LETTER Adam Vaughan Letter

Re: Toronto Island Airport
Dear Mr. Trudeau;
I am writing further to comments in the media by one of your MPs regarding the Toronto Island Airport.
Mr. Adam Vaughan has been noted in the Toronto press as stating: Porter push for island airport jets is dead, says Adam Vaughan
