Arctic Airports and Aerodromes As Critical Infrastructure
October 30, 2020 Arctic Airports and Aerodromes as Critical Infrastructure Christina Bouchard, Graduate Fellow and Program Manager: Critical Infrastructure in Canada’s Arctic Territories Key Considerations Many Arctic communities were formed as coastal settlements and continue to rely heavily on air or naval transportation modes. Notably, the territory of Nunavut (NU) includes island communities where air infrastructure plays a critical role in community resupply in the absence of a highway system. It is anticipated that the rapid advancement of climate change will result in permafrost melt, sea ice melt and changing weather patterns. The ground upon which runways, buildings and other infrastructure are constructed will shift and move as the permafrost melts. Capital planning studies have also identified shortfalls with runway lighting systems and power supply, critical for safety where visibility is challenging. Both the extended periods of darkness in the North and the increasing prevalence of severe wind and weather events heighten the need for modern lighting systems. In addition to climate change considerations, the 2020 emergence of the novel COVID-19 virus has also drawn attention to the essential nature of airports in Nunavut for medical flights1. Private companies providing air services, have experienced pressures following the emergence of the virus. The pandemic circumstances of COVID-19 exposed, and brought to question, underlying systemic assumptions about the profitability of providing medically critical air travel services to remote locations. Purpose This policy primer describes the state of existing and planned Arctic aeronautical facilities. The overarching challenge of remoteness faced by many northern communities is discussed to understand the critical nature of air travel infrastructure in remote communities.
