                              As the senior advocate of airport owner and operator organizations in Canada, AMCO has evolved into a strong provincial organization committed to the sustainability of airports nationally. Incorporated on October 18, 1985, AMCO’s aims are: to represent the interests of the owners and/or operators of airports in the province of Ontario whose development and operation are not under the direct control of the federal or provincial governments; and, to promote the safe and efficient operation of those airports.

                              MISSION STATEMENT
                              AMCO, a strong provincial organization committed to the sustainability of airports nationally, monitors and communicates developments within the airport industry; lobbies and takes effective action as required; provides networking opportunities and training to airports of various sizes, ownership, organizational structures and economic health, and to businesses and other interested parties that work to enhance airport operations and sustainability, at fair market value.
