Wifi at Pearson?

Does anyone know if there's free wifi at Pearson now? I haven't been there since May, when they still had that silly boingo service you had to pay for. I heard something about it getting free wifi and I just want to be sure before I go there next week if I'll have to pay.

(Sorry if this is in the wrong place, I wasn't sure where to post it).

I was there at the end of October of this year and noticed a lot of people on their laptops, so I assumed it was free due to the number of them surfing away!

it is free but last time I was there it was faster for me to tether my iPhone then to user the wifi, just way to many people using it.

Most airports are now free- YYZ, YUL, YEG, YYC, can't remember if Vancouver is or not. PHX, MCO for sure on the other side of the border, tho I think LAX is still thru Tmobile and their partners. If you're in a pay-for-use terminal- just find the nearest Starbucks or McDonalds.
