The Snag Sheet Monthly Newsletter of Canadian Airways Lodge 764
Jun 2016 THE SNAG SHEET MONTHLY NEWSLETTER OF CANADIAN AIRWAYS LODGE 764 International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers Representing Air Transport Workers in British Columbia and the President’s Report Yukon To most members “The Union” is a single giant entity that is responsible for all of the bad things that occur in their working lives and is run by people who stay up at night Inside this issue: trying to figure out new and inventive ways to ruin your life. But how many of you have President’s Report 1-3 taken the time to look closely and understand how your Union actually works? How is it governed? How can you effect change within “The Union” if you are not happy with what Water Bombers 4-8 you see or hear? Who do you have to scream and bitch at to get a satisfactory resolve to any specific issue or problem that you have? What are the procedures and processes Airports/ Cargo Report 8 that you can use to effect changes to the way “The Union” operates and represents the Tech Ops Report 9 membership? MTU Report 9-10 Your “Union”, the IAMAW, like Cerberus is a three headed creature in terms of its gov- ernance structure with Local Lodges, District Lodges and a Grand Lodge that essentially Photo FrontPage 10 equate to Municipal, Provincial and Federal governments. One taxpayer (or dues payer AC Pension Report 11 in this case) sending their money to three different levels of representation that all tell you that (insert your issue here) is not their responsibility and that you have to go talk to the Local or the District or the Grand Lodge to resolve your particular issue. -

Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook I
Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook Final Report strategic transportation & tourism solutions Prepared by InterVISTAS Consulting Inc. June 17, 2008 June 17, 2008 Confidential Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook i Executive Summary InterVISTAS Consulting Inc. was retained by the Vancouver Island Economic Developers Association (VIEDA) to develop a Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook. Most airports in Canada and all but one of the airports in the study area are managed by independent authorities or by municipal councils of the communities they serve. These airports are free to participate in any market sector in which they see opportunity: as defined and sanctioned by their Board’s mission, vision and strategic plan for their community’s airport. Key factors that govern and shape decisions around market participation are: ■ Market opportunities in terms of underserved regions, low levels of service and the airport’s competitive positioning in that sector based on market analysis ■ The operational capability of the airport to participate in target markets ■ A business case that supports the investment to enter target markets The InterVISTAS’ approach and methodology for this study was shaped by these considerations. The report assesses levels of service by defined regions and market sectors, identifies current levels of service, assesses airports’ capabilities in the region and recommends development subject to detailed business case analysis. Section 2 of the report presents an overview of the socio-economic and demographic characteristics of the seven major Regional Districts contained in the study area. The data shows significant forecast population growth for the Central Island Regional Districts of Nanaimo, Comox/Strathacona and the Cowichan Valley as well as the Sunshine Coast Regional District (Gibsons/Sechelt). -
