GTAA and Air Canada Employees Partner for Toy Mountain

Both Air Canada and the GTAA have strong commitments to giving back to the community and this is another way that both companies are coming together to support those in need.

The GTAA is proud to partner with Air Canada to raise a mountain of toys. From December 1 to 21, all airport employees are being invited to contribute new, unwrapped toys to CTV Toy Mountain, which benefits the Salvation Army.

Air Canada has installed a mini-plane and baggage cart in Terminal 1 on the Departures level (near column A) so that airport employees and guests can watch the pile of toys grow. All of the toys collected will be distributed by the Salvation Army to families in need in Toronto.

Both Air Canada and the GTAA have strong commitments to giving back to the community and this is another way that both companies are coming together to support those in need. Employees are pleased to be able to make a difference in a child’s Christmas by dropping off a toy at designated locations at Toronto Pearson.

Working together, employees from both the GTAA and Air Canada are committed to building a mountain of toys this Christmas. 

The GTAA is the operator of Toronto Pearson International Airport, the largest airport in Canada and one of the largest airports in North America in terms of passenger and air cargo traffic. Earlier this year, Toronto Pearson was named Most Improved Airport by airlines around the globe.  The 2010 International Air Transport Association Eagle award is a global industry award that recognizes the significant strids made by Toronto Pearson in its commitment to working with the air carrier industry.

The GTAA is the non‐share, not for profit authority that operates Toronto Pearson. All revenue generated by the GTAA is reinvested back into the airport. In 2009, 30.4 million passengers travelled through Toronto Pearson.
