Below is a link to a very short Youtube video of a Toronto city council meeting regarding the devastating effects on the bird population a waterfront airport expansion in Toronto will have.

The video clearly explains how important the area is to birds migrating north and south across the Great Lakes; that the jet planes being proposed are more dangerous to birds, and vice versa; and that the Toronto Port Authority will eventually begin controlling the bird population on the Toronto Islands and Tommy Thompson park across the harbour by CULLING POPULATIONS AND TAMPERING WITH BIRD ENVIRONMENTS, which will affect resident water birds as well as environments for transient song birds migrating through the area.

Better yet … write to your city councillor to ask him/her to vote NO on an Island airport expansion
