**Location & Boundary Specifics:**
The St. Michael's Hospital Heliport (TC LID: CTM4) is situated on the roof of the main hospital wing at the intersection of Shuter Street and Victoria Street. The 1 nautical mile (1.9 kilometers) restriction radius extends from this central rooftop coordinate outward over the surrounding downtown Garden District.

**Altitude & Operational Constraints:**
This restriction applies to all airspace altitudes from the surface up within the boundary. There are no height limit exceptions for basic drone operators; launching or flying any drone within this 1.9 km zone is completely prohibited. The airspace is active 24/7 to accommodate emergency trauma flights, meaning there are no designated off-hours for recreational flying.

**Clearance & Permitting Process:**
Advanced Operators must obtain explicit prior authorization before entering the airspace. The official permit and flight plan pathway requires digital coordination via the NAV CANADA system at https://portal.navdrone.ca/. Additionally, because this is an uncontrolled certified facility, pilots must directly coordinate with the aerodrome operator (Unity Health Toronto) by calling 416-864-5323 to prevent any conflicts with incoming air ambulances.

## Hospital for Sick Children Heliport Restrictions
* **No Basic Operations:** Standard drone flights are prohibited within 1.9 kilometers (1 nautical mile) of the Hospital for Sick Children (CNW8) Heliport in downtown Toronto.
* **Advanced Operators:** If you hold an Advanced Operations certificate, you may fly near this critical medical facility only if you strictly follow Transport Canada protocols to avoid interfering with medevac operations.

## Getting Permission
* **Coordination Required:** Because this is an uncontrolled civil heliport, you must directly contact the managing site operator before flying inside the mapped boundary.
* **Contact Info:** Call the Hospital for Sick Children at 416-813-5599 to discuss operational coordination for the airspace surrounding the facility.
