The air show is literal paid advertising for @ ឡាក់ហេដម៉ាតទីន, the main sponsor. This show is one way they’re trying to sell the 🇨🇦 public on their bid in the fighter jet competition—the contentious F35.

Bonus reasons to cancel the #TorontoAirshow:
– Its ear-splitting noise is incredibly disruptive.
– The GHG emissions of the jets is through the roof.
– And once again, these are WAR PLANES designed to KILL people. They shouldn’t be for entertainment. /5https://t.co/zXvWocdUod- World BEYOND War កាណាដា (@WBWCanada) ខែកញ្ញា 3, 2021
