Canada's busiest airport
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Canada's busiest airport by aircraft movements and number of passengers served is Toronto Pearson International Airport, which is also the only Canadian airport ranked in the top 30 airports in the world (by number of passengers).
The following lists rank other Canadian airports by both criteria, passenger traffic (how busy the terminals are) and aircraft movements (how busy the runways are). For each airport, the lists cite the principal city associated with the airport by Transport Canada, not (necessarily) the municipality where the airport is physically located.
