Transportation
For air travel: Pearson International is Toronto’s main airport, and is about ~40 minutes drive from downtown where the meeting is held (either by Taxi, the Union-Pearson Express train or GO bus and subway from Yorkdale). Other Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) options are available but not recommended.
For a few of you (e.g. Chicago, Newark, Boston, east Canadians), the other option is the smaller regional Billy Bishop airport, which is located on the island in downtown and has service to and from several nearby US and Canadian cities. Fares are often lower through there as well. You can find links and more information, including about travel by air, here:
