Original Toronto Star caption: Crowds of newly arrived air passengers wait to go through customs at Toronto International Airport. Such delays are already costing North American businessmen more than $50 million a year in wasted time. Jet-age Malton Airport is already bursting at the seams, say officials, while passenger congestion worsens each year.
