Hamilton International Airport

Hopefully some investments will get some more passenger service.

$400 million over 49.5 years is peanuts. The airport needs $400 million invested right now. That's $8million a year which would basically just be upkeep of the infrastructure and not really upgrading the key problems of a proper functioning terminal....That's airport terminal not bus terminal. A parallel taxiway for 12/30 and runway extension of 06/24 to allow for growth on the south side of airport rd, there's $400 million gone.

It does seem like a remarkably small number.

In terms of passenger growth, I only see Flair and Porter as options for YHM as both AC and WS seem to have abandoned it for YYZ, which I think is unfortunate.
