Original Toronto Star caption: Terminal 2 passengers wait for their luggage yesterday, as they were among the first to use the new $42 million terminal which Air Canada began operating for the first time. A faulty switch stopped the entire carousel system for 45 minutes at one pont, as people waited for their baggage. About 12,000 passengers passed through the new terminal. Hundreds of passengers who arrived at Terminal 1 to board Air Canada flights were redirected to the new building.
