If you recently landed in Toronto, you may have noticed something different about the mayoral display in the arrivals section at Pearson airport.
Images of the display have been circulating online and show the likeness of former Toronto Mayor John Tory crudely covered with kraft paper and not a lot of tape.
The display is one of the first things passengers arriving at Pearson airport see before they set foot in the city, and also features images of Mississauga Mayor Bonnie Crombie and Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown. CTV News Toronto reached out to the Greater Toronto Airports Authority , which oversees operations at Canada’s busiest travel hub, for comment on the makeshift covering.“We investigated and learned that the mayor’s likeness was covered by a non-GTAA employee,” a spokesperson said.
While the paper covering itself has been removed by the GTAA, the organization said the signage will eventually be “revised and re-installed” following a change in leadership.
