Airport expansion: bad for your lungs

KEEP YOUR CHILD OFF DRUGS - ASTHMA DRUGS! 


The Toronto Port Authority is holding an environmental assessment for their proposed “Pedestrian” Tunnel on  Wednesday March 24, 2010 - from 6pm to 8pm at the Harbourfront Community Centre 627 Queen Quay West in the Medium Assembly Room.

 They will focus their “Environmental Assessment” only on the new tunnel not on the doubling of Q-400 flights to 212 slots at the Island Airport.

They won’t talk about the 31,609,730 kgs. of CO2 or the 77,380 kgs. of NOx and thousands of kgs. of carcinogens. They won’t talk about the 600,000 taxis, cars and busses that will rush up and down Eireann Quay or the tens of thousands of taxis that will idle their engines beside the school and park.

They won’t talk about the noise impacts on you and your family’s health by over 30,000 Q-400 flights a year in your front yard.

Come to the meeting and demand a REAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STUDY.

One that takes into considers the total environmental impact of all the Island Airport functions on your health
