• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

'How Many Cities Have One Of "These"..?'

that was a smart move, imo. they are talking about putting a tunnel under the lake so you don't have to ride the ferry in if you don't want to. at that point, if your bag is small, you could bring a folding bicycle and be in the hotel with no travel costs long before they could from pearson at any cost.
not sure what that turbo is, maybe a dash 8? but it flies over my house all the time.

It was a Dash 8, I have a friend who works for Air Canada reservations and I asked her to find me the least expensive flight from Saint John to Toronto, it was kind of a bet I had with some coworkers. It turned out the commuter from Saint John, to Halifax, then Montreal and finally to Toronto Island was less than half the cost of the direct flight. I know it is a lot of up and down, but I love take off's and landings so it was a bonus, not to mention not only did I win the bet (a 40 oz bottle of Ballantine's 21 years old De-Luxe Blend) but as I mentioned I skipped the baggage claim and taxi/limo hassles to get from Pearson to downtown. A few of our senior managers who travel a lot are doing the same thing when they can, and they all agree, Toronto Island is a much better entry point than Perason if you need to get downtown in a hurry.

Besides it really reminds me of the early days of MSFS and the default flight out of Meigs Field.
