Read the wikipedia post.
Leto nailed part of it but until recently it still could have been the Montreal airport had the Montreal, Quebec, and Canadian governments invested in it (transportation to a from). It is really not that far from Montreal (35km) and the Trudeau (Dorval) airport is prime on island property that could be used for much better purposes.
There are takls of developing Mirabel into some type of shopping, amusement, resort type place.
Are you planniing on moving to Montreal?
By the way, I posted that graphic to show the relative size of Mirabel Airport (and the airport area).
