It would also allow for different dates, so maybe east coasters that can't make the YYZ do attend the west coast do.
Heck it might even allow for different AC peeps to attend.

Suggestions here for
Penguin Party Planning Inc:
Based on names in the wiki, it shows that interest in attending is way bigger than a casual meet & greet - and these are only those who have added their names so far.
I would highly recommend you think about a proper venue for a crowd this large. I would bet many of us (who never had a previous opportunity) would be thrilled to have an event at YYZ. Pick a hangar, throw up some minor decorations, etc.
Make sure people can mingle, keep it buffet style with more than one station for food and drink and determine a cost per person.
This is a lot easier than having everyone try to sort out their own bills in a restaurant type of setting.

I lack the over-the-top talent of Dorian when it comes to throwing a party and arranging for outstanding take-home party favours, plus I also had the support of amazing Sean Peever as co-host, but, depending on the date (end of March or April for me ), if you need my help the answer would be
YES
