Looking back on our accomplishments can only instill a sense of pride for all who have served under the “For Freedom” banner. Our contribution to the his- tory of our country has been significant and will continue with the next generation of airmen and airwomen. Sixty-six years is a long time for any particular entity and almost unbelievable for an operational unit such as ours. Whether currently flying in war torn Afghanistan, the vast wilderness of northern Canada during the 50’s and 60’s or the dark dangerous skies of Fortress Europe in WWII we continue to meet every challenge with the same fortitude and resolve. 408 Squadron remains proud, strong and ready! The word “hectic” would probably be the best way to describe the actions around 408 Squadron since the last newsletter. A considerable amount of training and preparations have been undertaken to evaluate and accredit the squadron to a high readiness state. The units under the control of 1 Wing Headquarters, based in Kingston, rotate readiness levels so that an individual unit is always maintained and prepared for whatever contingency that may arise.

  • A Direct Observation Method for Auditing Large Urban Centers Using Stratified Sampling, Mobile GIS Technology and Virtual Environments Sean J
    Lafontaine et al. Int J Health Geogr (2017) 16:6 DOI 10.1186/s12942-017-0079-7 International Journal of Health Geographics RESEARCH Open Access A direct observation method for auditing large urban centers using stratified sampling, mobile GIS technology and virtual environments Sean J. V. Lafontaine1, M. Sawada2,3* and Elizabeth Kristjansson3,4 Abstract Background: With the expansion and growth of research on neighbourhood characteristics, there is an increased need for direct observational field audits. Herein, we introduce a novel direct observational audit method and system- atic social observation instrument (SSOI) for efficiently assessing neighbourhood aesthetics over large urban areas. Methods: Our audit method uses spatial random sampling stratified by residential zoning and incorporates both mobile geographic information systems technology and virtual environments. The reliability of our method was tested in two ways: first, in 15 Ottawa neighbourhoods, we compared results at audited locations over two subse- quent years, and second; we audited every residential block (167 blocks) in one neighbourhood and compared the distribution of SSOI aesthetics index scores with results from the randomly audited locations. Finally, we present inter- rater reliability and consistency results on all observed items. Results: The observed neighbourhood average aesthetics index score estimated from four or five stratified random audit locations is sufficient to characterize the average neighbourhood aesthetics. The SSOI was internally consistent and demonstrated good to excellent interrater reliability. At the neighbourhood level, aesthetics is positively related to SES and physical activity and negatively correlated with BMI. Conclusion: The proposed approach to direct neighbourhood auditing performs sufficiently and has the advantage of financial and temporal efficiency when auditing a large city.

  • Capital Brownfields: an Assessment of Brownfield Planning Policy in the City of Ottawa, Ontario
    Capital Brownfields: An Assessment of Brownfield Planning Policy in the City of Ottawa, Ontario by Mark Roy Ouseley A thesis Presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Environmental Studies in Planning Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2013 © Mark Roy Ouseley 2013 i AUTHOR's DECLARATION I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii ABSTRACT A brownfield is previously developed land which suffers from actual or perceived contamination due to past uses. The City of Ottawa, like many of Canada's municipalities, is faced with a significant inventory of brownfields. As the legacy of industrial activities in earlier times, these sites have become an environmental threat, blight to the community and economic loss for their owners and the City. Unlike many of Ontario's more highly industrialized municipalities, Ottawa has a less industrialized history and, as the Nation's Capital, faces unique brownfield challenges and development climate, requiring a policy approach that is tailored to the Ottawa development market. Ottawa's major brownfield sites are owned by different levels of governments and private firms, ranging from the National Capital Commission owned LeBreton Flats to the City of Ottawa owned Bayview Yards. This thesis intends to examine current development trends for brownfields, impediments and opportunities for development, assess the efficacy of current policies and provide suggestions for the improvement of the existing brownfield development planning process in Ottawa, using an applied research method.
