John Barber’s column<\/a> (registered users or Google News search<\/a>) in The Globe & Mail<\/em> today discusses the increasing volume of a voice that has been shouting about the Island Airport for some time now: the Mississaugas of the New Credit. The Mississaugas have long disputed that the land now occupied by the Toronto Island Airport was never sold in either of the Toronto Land Purchases<\/a> of 1787 and 1805. The islands were long considered a sacred place<\/a> for the area’s native people.<\/p>\n

\n

[T]he continuing land dispute at Caledonia, a few kilometres away from the Mississaugas’ current home on part of the Six Nations Reserve near Brantford, has led to discussions among band members about bringing similar pressure to bear in Toronto, according to the source. At the same time, the New Credit group is recruiting allies among other Mississauga bands throughout Southern Ontario in order to help press the cause.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

The Mississaugas have also released conceptual drawings of proposed redevelopments for the site, which “show a sprawling complex, complete with a hotel, museum and entertainment facilities, on land that is now the western half of the existing airport. Conceived as a centre of aboriginal culture in Toronto, the complex also includes an arena and parkland.”<\/p>\n

The Mississaugas have made no mention of it one way or the other, but Barber is quick to point out that concerns about the development of a casino on the Island have been mentioned. Although it’s a very intricate issue, would Torontonians embrace this kind of development on the island if it meant the end of the Island Airport?<\/p>\n
