  + stars: | 2024-04-17 | by ( Ian Austen | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
It was a brazen theft: thousands of gold bars and millions of dollars in bank notes stolen a year ago from Toronto’s international airport. On Wednesday, Canadian authorities announced the arrest of nine people, including an Air Canada employee, in connection with the theft of more than 20 million Canadian dollars, about $14.5 million, in gold bars and 2.5 million dollars, about $1.8 million, in bank notes that vanished from a warehouse at Toronto Pearson Airport in April 2023. Arrest warrants have also been issued for three other people, including a manager at the airline. “One we jokingly say belongs in a Netflix series.” The Peel police are responsible for law enforcement at Toronto’s airport. The gold, Chief Duraiappah said, was partly used to buy guns that were bound for Canada.

Sept 29 (Reuters) - Air Canada (AC.TO) pilots staged a protest at Toronto's Pearson Airport on Friday, demanding better pay and benefits as talks over a new contract covering 4,500 pilots at Canada's largest carrier continue. We have to close the growing wage gap between us and our American counterparts," Chair of the governing body for the airline's pilots union Charlene Hudy told Reuters. Currently, the union is actively engaged in negotiations with Air Canada, and it anticipates that these discussions will persist throughout the entire month of October, Hudy added. "We are still early in the bargaining process and Air Canada remains engaged in productive discussions with ALPA," the carrier said on Friday. The pilots for the Montreal-based carrier, represented by the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) union, began bargaining for new labor terms this summer.

☆ Canada just seized one of Russia's dwindling supply of massive heavy-lift cargo planes
  + stars: | 2023-06-16 | by ( Michael Peck | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
The aircraft was an Antonov An-124, one of the biggest transport aircraft in the world. It was one of the few heavy-lift transport aircraft that Russia's military still has in operation. This month, Canada confiscated an Antonov An-124, one of the biggest transport aircraft in the world. Soon afterward, Canada closed its airspace to Russian aircraft in response to Moscow's attack on Ukraine on February 24. A Volga Dnepr Airlines Antonov An-124 grounded at Canada's Pearson International Airport in May 2022.

Thieves made off from Toronto Pearson airport with gold and valuables worth $15 million, police said. The gold was part of an intra-bank trade involving TD Bank, per a memo seen by the Toronto Sun.

This did not involve access to Toronto Pearson itself and did not pose a threat to passengers or GTAA staff." Air Canada, and TD Bank didn't immediately respond to requests for comment from Insider, made outside normal working hours.

"And then it sat there — for a month, two months, three months," Rees said in the video. "If it takes me and my husband to hold them accountable — that's exactly what we plan on doing," Rees told Insider.

TORONTO—The Toronto Pearson Airport is charging what amounts to nearly a penny a second for a special, extra-large parking space, a bargain given the size. An Antonov An-124 cargo plane has been parked there for more than a year. The flying monstrosity, one of 26 in the world, has a wingspan of 240 feet, double that of a Boeing 737’s, and is roomy enough to ferry satellites, locomotive engines and wind turbines—as much as 150 tons of stuff.
