All passengers and crew were accounted for, the airport said, adding emergency crews were responding at the scene and flights to the airport were halted.
Delta Air Lines Flight 4819 originated in Minneapolis and landed in Toronto.
The Toronto airport was already expecting a busy day and a storm that dumped more than 8 inches of snow on the region, with an expected 130,000 travelers on board around 1,000 flights, according to the airport.
The accident comes on the heels of a fatal midair collision in January at Washington D.C.’s Reagan International Airport, which killed all 64 people on the American Airlines regional jet and another three people on board an Army Black Hawk helicopter.
The Federal Aviation Administration was also recently hit by layoffs spearheaded by President Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, with several hundred air traffic controllers receiving firing notices over the weekend.
