List of international airports in Canada

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of international airports in Canada.

As defined by Transport Canada, an international airport:

means any airport designated by the Contracting State, in whose territory it is situated, as an airport of entry and departure for international commercial air traffic, where the formalities incident to customs, immigration, public health, animal and plant quarantine and similar procedures are carried out. (ICAO Annex 9) (In Canada, this does not include airports serving only transborder air traffic with the USA)
