The airport, formerly known as the Montreal-Dorval Airport, grew out of Royal Canadian Air Force Station Lachine, which was established at Dorval, Que., in 1941 as a transit point for moving aircraft and supplies to Europe during the Second World War. ![]() (Left to right) HCol Eben James, Maj Ken Mills and CWO Gilda Dolph with the plaque honouring the 60th anniversary of the formation of 2 Air Movements Unit.

No. 2 Air Movement Unit (2 AMU) was formed at RCAF Lachine in 1951 to support 426 Transport Squadron and 436 Transport Squadron, which had been re-established there in the late 1940s. During the time it was located in Montreal, 2 AMU played a role in many operations including the Korean War, northern resupply and the Suez Crisis. The unit, today known as 2 Air Movements Squadron, moved to Trenton, Ont., in 1959 and is an integral part of 8 Wing Trenton. “The Greater Montréal Area specifically played an important role in the industrial production, training and employment of transport aircraft and assets in areas such as Lachine and Dorval,” said squadron commanding officer, Major Ken Mills, during the dedication of a commemorative plaque on Jan. 18 at the airport. Maj Mills, Chief Warrant Officer Gilda Dolph (squadron CWO), and squadron Honorary Colonel Eben James were joined at the commemoration by squadron members, members of the air movements community and airport staff, as well as former Chief of the Air Staff, Lieutenant-General (ret’d) Angus Watt, now the President and CEO of the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA). The plaque was unveiled in the passenger reception area of the main terminal and will be displayed in conjunction with the airport’s 70th anniversary displays, ensuring a marked level of visibility for persons travelling in and out of Montreal for all purposes.
