The Ontario government plans to assume control of the City of Toronto’s stake in Billy Bishop airport in a bid to pave the way for larger aircraft on Toronto Island, Premier Doug Ford says.

Ford said he discussed his plans for an extended runway and larger aircraft with Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow when she visited his home “in the last week or so.”
