They’ve since been located, screened and are on their way, and Yashnyk says there are no charges and no risk to the public.
Toronto Pearson tweeted Saturday morning that a “containment issue” temporarily paused passenger processing and “pushbacks” from gates for flights to the U.S.
The airport says some, but not all, passengers needed to deplane.
It says the problem has since been fixed and normal operations have resumed.
