History of Toronto Pearson International Airport
In its early years, what is now Toronto Pearson International Airport was known as the Malton Airport. Established in 1937, it was built by the Toronto Harbour Commission and was originally intended to serve as an alternate airfield to the downtown Toronto Island Airport . Pearson instead became the primary airport for the Greater Toronto Area and the entire Golden Horseshoe region. Today, Toronto Pearson is the largest and busiest airport in Canada and is among the busiest airports in the world.
1937-1946
Construction
Trans-Canada Air Lines was expected to begin operations in 1937, and the Government of Canada wanted to build an airport to serve Toronto. In November 1936, Toronto City Council formed an "Advisory Airport Committee" to advise on where to build a municipal airport. The committee proposed several locations and of these two were approved by the Government of Canada, which agreed to fund one-quarter of the project. The two sites were the Toronto Islands and Malton, north-west of Toronto. A seaplane and land airport would be built at the island, and an auxiliary field was to be built at Malton. After two days of debate, City Council voted 14-7 to approve the construction of both airports.

Did you know that, the name KHMER KROM (The LOWER KHMER) refers to the local Khmer people who lived in the Mekong Delta ever since thousands of years. The Colonial French took control of that area, and named it ‘ Cochin Chin’; the French gave it to Vietnam without question, at the end of the Second World War. There is also a local Khmer called “KHMER-SIRIN" who is still living in Thailand after the Siam rebelled, ransacked and annexed the Khmer city in 1461. The Khmer in Cambodia is then called ‘ KHMER LEU’ meaning the “UPPER KHMER”. It definitely has nothing to do with the origin of Funan in earlier history of the Khmer.
