La Macaza – Mont Tremblant International Airport → Mont Tremblant International Airport – The long compounded name, which someone claims is "official", is nowhere to be found in sources, which invariably use the proposed new short name. Dicklyon (talk) 07:27, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

• Support per nom -- 70.24.250.26 (talk) 07:41, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

• Support. Airports should be at either the common name or the name used by the operating authority. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 18:34, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

• Unsure, as the airports website states the official name as La Macaza - Mont Tremblant International. Seems that is not just someone. I remember when it was just La Macaza, and the only planes were "cesnas" landing on the huge jumbo jet runway. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aunitedfront (talk • contribs) 01:00, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

That same official page has heading "Mont-Tremblant International Airport". We don't necessarily title articles by the official name; see WP:OFFICIALNAMES. The hyphen they use is typical of French styling, but atypical of English, per these books. Dicklyon (talk) 02:26, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

You might be confusing a hyphen with a dash. You can look up the differences here for Hyphen: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyphen, and here for Dash:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dash. (In brief, a hyphen joins words, whereas a dash shows connections or relationships. In this case a Dash is correctly used to show the relationship between the city where the airport is located, La Macaza, and the city it primarily serves, Mont Tremblant.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aunitedfront (talk • contribs) 23:55, 19 November 2012‎ (UTC)

I was referring to the hyphen in "Mont-Tremblant" that's more typical in French and less in English. I agree that the dash is appropriate in La Macaza–Mont Tremblant International Airport if we want to include the city name in the title (though it should not be spaced as it presently is, per MOS:DASH). The official web page represents this dash using a spaced hyphen, which is a not-unusual style. Dicklyon (talk) 04:03, 20 November 2012 (UTC)

• Support, just use the most common name as the title. The official name is not used by almost anyone? It was mentioned in the Canadian Parliament as " Mont Tremblant Intemational Airport in La Macaza"[1]. It can be stated in the lead. --Enric Naval (talk) 13:32, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

This Sentence is not true

"The area that was used for the Bomarc launchers was converted into the La Macaza Institution in 1978."

Not true. If you'll follow this link, you'll see the Bomarc missile buildings are still there. They're to the far right, big square, with buildings.

Just an FYI.
