What this town needs are more people like Bob Deluce, who got Porter Airlines going despite all the naysayers
If Bob Deluce has his way, the Toronto Maple Leafs will soon be flying on his Porter planes.
And their fans too. Heck, if this guy has it his way, he'll have the Raptors, Argos and the Marlies on board as well.
"There have already been inquiries to see what we offer," he said after addressing the Economic Club of Toronto yesterday at the prestigious National Club on Bay St. "It's such a natural for sports teams."
Yesterday he announced Montreal as Porter Airlines' second destination point -- starting in December. They start bookings tomorrow, just one week after they began daily flights to Ottawa.
How about that, Mayor David Miller? What was that about stopping the Island Airport bridge? It seems they are ferrying in a new island airline era! You can't win them all.
Just think of how perfect this could be for the teams. For some trips they could leave from the island instead of Pearson and be in their opposing city a lot quicker.
