It may be something of a long shot, but I still hope Watson and/or Laroche (OMCIAA CEO) are pursuing this strongly.
If Porter was able to convince Toronto to expand the island airport, wouldnt they need somewhere to service the c-series planes?? The island airport has no room!! Maybe Ottawa could be the spot where they build a hanger to service them and add more flights making it a "hub-ette"!!
