Proof of Toronto MPs playing-it-both-ways & not being honest w Torontonians was thx to @jeffreybgray.bsky.social getting the head of an agency under federal Liberal control on the record saying they’re making real (900 metre) plans.

Runway at Billy Bishop could need up to 900 metres of new landmass for jets, agency saysToronto Port Authority CEO says plan would see most of the new runway jut westward, instead of east into harbourwww.theglobeandmail.comShawn Micallef

The kicker: the Liberal script is we’re waiting to see plans. But their own agency, the one they oversee, is actively making concrete plans. To be polite, Toronto MPs are being profoundly dishonest with their constituents. THEY are making airport expansion plans.
