Not to my knowledge, no.

If you're flying into the Hamilton airport its really easy to get to Mac. You can pay for a cab (about $30), or you can see about their shuttle service.

Pearson is pretty straight-forward too, from what I gather. You take a GO bus to Square One, and then transfer going from Square One to Mac.

You can also use Airway Transits. They're a door-to-door service that will pick you up and drop you off where you need to go but it costs upwards of 70 dollars.
