Over the next three years, a $150,000 investment made by the Toronto Port Authority (TPA) in Evergreen's Children's Program will help turn six of Toronto's downtown school grounds into dynamic, outdoor classrooms where kids can re-connect with and learn about nature and, most importantly, play in the great outdoors.

This year, the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (BBTCA) helped to transport 25 sick, injured or homeless animals to Toronto. By sponsoring Pilots N Paws Canada and waiving landing fees for its volunteer pilots, BBTCA helped these animals find their second chance at a happy and healthy life.

The Toronto Port Authority (TPA) is in the process of removing up to 33,000 tons of debris and sediment from the mouth of the Don River, with the goal of preventing future flooding and the flow of unwanted material into Toronto’s Harbour, which can pose a risk to boater navigation and public safety.

One of the ways the TPA reduces our environmental footprint is by choosing 100 per cent green energy from Bullfrog Power. The TPA is one of Bullfrog’s green power leaders, ranking 7th among the top corporate supporters of clean, green energy in the country.

As part of the Toronto Port Authority (TPA)’s ongoing efforts to protect the environment and preserve natural habitats, on September 19, 2014, the TPA planted a butterfly garden at the Outer Harbour Marina, consisting of nearly 100 milkweed plants to support the Monarch Butterfly.

On June 4, 2014, the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (BBTCA) fire rescue crew responded to an unusual call for help at the mainland ferry terminal. Perched underneath the ferry ramp was a damp and frightened eight-month-old bullmastiff puppy. Using the Jaws of Life, the fire crew saved the pup—unharmed, but shaken.

In 2012 work began on a pedestrian tunnel to link Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (BBTCA) to the mainland. But this wouldn’t be the first time that a tunnel of this sort was undertaken. The difference this time was that steam power would not be used to till the soil adjacent to the Western Gap.
