Flying with Billy Bishop

From flying boats and wartime pilots to commuter flights skimming the waterfront, explore the history of Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport and its transformation from a former military training base to a gateway connecting Toronto to the world. This waterfront walk traces the airport’s remarkable evolution through stories of aviation pioneers, Norwegian airmen, island amusement parks, and the communities shaped by the harbour’s constant movement and change. Discover how this small island airport became a gateway for millions—and how global events, innovation, and local debates transformed Toronto’s shoreline along the way.
