The Canadian Border Services Agency is based at Thunder Bay airport because the airport is classified as an airport of entry by NAV CANADA. Thunder Bay airport has a long history and was originally named the Fort William Municipal Airport. Work on the airport was started during the great depression to alleviate unemployment. During the Second World War the airport was used for flight training. More recently in 1994 Thunder Bay underwent renovation. This added passenger attractions such as an arcade, a gift shop and a food court, while the air traffic controllers got two new jetways.
