A place to ask Canadians questions and get answers. The most obvious questions would be about Canada, but you can ask about pretty much anything; news, current events, society, etc

I don't intend this as an AMA format, but can entertain some. Rules:

Be civil and act in good faith.
No trolling.

Montrealers, do (most) planes at Trudeau airport land and take off towards the South-West? That would put it over the water, so the noise wouldn't be as bad. (lemmy.ca)

Not from Montreal, but barring airport specific reasons to use specific runways (like terrain or noise abatement), which it doesn’t look like Trudeau does, it’s going to come down to wind direction or traffic flow etc.

For example right now it looks like there’s a 10kt headwind for runways taking off over the water so it would likely be preferred for takeoff barring the above.
