Pickering site today

Original Toronto Star caption: Pickering site today: After years of study, miscalculated forecasts of air traffic and protest over expropriation of farmland, Transport Canada proposed to build a one runway airport in the wrong place for the wrong reason, at a cost of $204 million, writes author Walter Stewart. When Ontario realized what it had bought, Premier William Davis backed out. But the airport still exists at Transport Canada. This child is not dead, a transport official says.
