Montréal / Boucherville Water Aerodrome

The closure was primarily due to the cessation of operations by its main user, the flight school 'Aviation B.L. inc.', which relocated its activities. While not officially stated, such closures near urban areas are often influenced by a combination of factors including changes in marina management priorities, increased recreational boat traffic creating operational conflicts, and local community concerns related to noise and safety.

The site is now used exclusively as a recreational marina (Marina de Boucherville). The water area where seaplanes once landed and took off is now used solely by pleasure boats. Any minimal land-based infrastructure that supported the aerodrome, such as a dedicated dock or small office, has been repurposed for marina activities. There are no visible remnants of its past as a water aerodrome.

The Montréal / Boucherville Water Aerodrome, which used the official Transport Canada Location Identifier CTB9, was a registered water base for seaplanes and floatplanes located at the Marina de Boucherville. Its main historical role was serving the general aviation community in the Greater Montréal area. It was the home base for 'Aviation B.L. inc.', a prominent flight school specializing in seaplane training and floatplane ratings. The aerodrome provided crucial access to the Saint Lawrence River for training, private flights, and tourism, making it a valuable, albeit small, local aviation hub.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the water aerodrome. A reopening is considered highly unlikely due to the high density of recreational boat traffic at the marina and the continued residential and commercial development of the Boucherville waterfront. Any proposal to reintroduce aviation activities would likely face significant logistical challenges and local opposition.
