Unbelievably Long Taxi and Takeoff YYZ Toronto Air Canada July 31 2023 4K 60fps

A recording of taxi and takeoff from YYZ Toronto Pearson International Airport.

This was the longest taxi, over 35 minutes, I have seen in a long time. It appears we were originally taking off on runway 06L/24R and that was changed later to 05/23 which is on the other side of the airport grounds. Even the pushback from the gate took longer than normal.
