Research has found that most youth gang-related crime consists of property offences, drugs sales drug use and physical conflicts with other gangs Social activities are more widely reported amongst self-identified youth gang members than criminal activities. Murder and other more grievous types of crime are uncommon Demographics of youth gang members. 6 Later attacks The murder rate climbed in the latter part of 2015 and jumped in 2016 to 73 in 2017 homicides were down to 65 on November 18 2018 with Cardinal Licorish 23 of Ajax shot and killed at an apartment building in the area of Lawrence Avenue and Kingston Road that death became Toronto's 90th homicide of that year which means the city has broken its homicide record surpassing the old record of 89 homicides in 1991 a BlogTO post in June reveals that Toronto's homicide rate was higher than in New York City the 2018 homicide tally included the 10 victims in the Yonge Street van attack and the 2 victims in the Danforth shooting In conjunction with the increase in murders overall shooting incidents also jumped significantly in 2015 with year-to-date figures by late November returning to the range seen at the peaks five to ten years earlier Toronto Police statistics show a 90% increase in people wounded by gunfire and a 48% increase in shootings (135 in 2015 compared to 91 in 2014). Meanwhile there were 114 reported incidents of shootings without injuries as of July 15 compared to just 14 in 2014. However despite this significant increase in the number of shooting incidents and victims the almost eleven month total of shooting related deaths at that point matched the previous decade low of 22 gun deaths for 2013 and the total number of homicides had potential to be the lowest number since TPS began publicly releasing the figures in 2005. Since then the city has seen an increase in shootings with 407 shootings in 2016 and 392 that following year As of November 20 2018 Toronto had the highest homicide rate among major Canadian cities with a rate of 3.5 per 100,000 people Its current homicide rate is higher than in Winnipeg Calgary Edmonton Vancouver Ottawa Montreal Hamilton New York City San Diego and Austin. Although this rate is an exaggerated spike primarily caused by the Toronto van attack which murdered 10 people on April 23 2018 the rate is still 3.1 (per 100,000 people) without this and still highest among the listed Canadian cities the 3 highest homicide years in the past decade are the most recent three reversing the downward trend that followed after the "year of the gun.".

Toronto Pearson International Airport is operated by the Greater Toronto Airports Authority (GTAA) and could potentially be asked to help observe in the operations of the other airports in the area but has yet to be asked to do so. John C Munro Hamilton International Airport in nearby Hamilton also handles international flights handles some discount flights and charters and acts as an alternate to Pearson the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport on the Toronto Islands near downtown is used for civil aviation air ambulance traffic and regional scheduled airlines (it handled nearly two million passengers in 2012). YTO is a multiple airport code for Pearson Billy Bishop and Buttonville Municipal Airport (in Markham) There are also a number of smaller airports scattered throughout the GTA The Greater Toronto Airport Authority has also placed a tentative proposal to develop a new airport in Pickering (which also extends over into Markham and Uxbridge). As the GTAA predicts Toronto Pearson would be unable to be the sole provider for the bulk of Toronto's commercial air traffic in the next 20 years from the report's publication in 2004 (i.e in 2024) they believe a new airport in Pickering would address the need for a regional/reliever airport east of Toronto Pearson as well as complement the airport in Hamilton Ontario the GTAA also stated the new airport would create more opportunities for economic development in the eastern region of the Greater Toronto Area Communication.
