November 2017 NEWSLETTER November 2017 NEWSLETTER “A national organization dedicated to promoting the viability of Regional and Community Airports across Canada” www.rcacc.ca RCAC MEMBER AIRPORT PROFILE: Vernon Regional Airport (CYVK), BC JJul Initially, the airport was located south of the city at the Vernon Army Cadet Camp. The camp parade square and baseball field now occupy the exact spot. During the second war, general aviation was grounded by the Federal Government. The airport was taken over by the military for training. When the war ended, the airport was relocated to the farmlands of Okanagan Landing. The airport was a grass field approximately half the length it is today. Jj The Vernon Flying Club was the sole tenant of the airport during the late forties and early fifties. There were only four aircraft based on the field. The 1,200′ X 12′ runway was eventually paved. The two-inch thick pavement was laid over four inches of gravel. The city hangar was built during the early 1950’s, and airport usage grew during the 60’s and 70’s. The strong economy of the 1970’s saw close to eighty aircraft located on the field. Operation then was a regional district function. The runway (07-25) had been extended westward onto Indian Reserve property giving 2200 feet, but it was still only twelve feet wide. The airport remained basically unchanged until 1988 when the present runway was built. The Flying Club and Okanagan Aviation were the primary forces behind this development. And when the city limits were expanded to include Okanagan Landing, the airport fell under the authority of the City of Vernon. The Vernon Regional Airport is a City owned and managed facility located on approximately 38.5 hectares (95 acres) at an elevation of 1141 foot above sea level approximately 8 kilometers (5 miles) southwest of downtown Vernon. Vernon Regional Airport is a commercial airport that houses industrial-based businesses focusing on aircraft manufacturing and maintenance as well as a base for corporate, commercial, and general aviation. It is one of the few airports in the Okanagan Valley that can offer skydiving because all commercial operators must give written consent to a skydiving company for skydiving to occur, something which is not feasible at a larger airport. There are 14 businesses on the field that employ approximately 120 people. Cumulatively the Airport contributes 30 million dollars annually to the local economy and has become a major economic generator for the region. The City of Vernon has completed Phase I of a multi-phase upgrade to the airport since assuming control in 1998 with the goal of continuing to attract new business to the Vernon area. Development and commercial lease information are under review in 2015 as part of the Airport Master Plan process. Designed to support industry, the Vernon Regional Airport has become a centre for manufacturing and maintenance in the Pacific Northwest. The airport is fully serviced with airside lots. In addition, Vernon Regional Airport has approximately 2 hectares (5 acres) of land available for aerospace needs. This land parcel provides an excellent opportunity for manufacturing, maintenance, and aerospace technical education. Landscaped and operated to a professional standard, Vernon Regional Airport is located in the picturesque Okanagan Valley with 1,072 metres (3,517 feet) of asphalt runway surrounded by lakes and recreational amenities.

  • The Rouge Uncovered: Community Participation, Urban Agriculture and Power Dynamics in the Creation of Canada’S First National Urban Park
    The Rouge Uncovered: Community Participation, Urban Agriculture and Power Dynamics in the Creation of Canada’s first National Urban Park by Jina Gill, B.A. (Hons.) A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Geography and Planning University of Toronto © Copyright by Jina Gill 2017 The Rouge Uncovered: Community Participation, Urban Agriculture and Power Dynamics in the creation of Canada’s first National Urban Park Jina Gill Master of Arts Department of Geography and Planning University of Toronto 2017 Abstract Local food production has been a defining goal of a healthy and resilient food system. In 2011 the Canadian government and Parks Canada committed to creating Canada’s first national urban park. The space in which land is used to undertake conservation efforts and develop sustainable farming is often associated with inequalities of larger society; whereby hegemonic practices of inclusion and exclusion are produced and/or reinforced. By employing an Environmental Justice framework this thesis investigates if and how small-scale farmers and community members have been included in the creation of the park, and how power, particularly in relation to the axis of difference, influences green space planning, local farming and sustainability in the Greater Toronto Area. Findings show extreme contention between farmers and environmentalists over productive parkland use and definitions of ecological integrity. This research also discloses the need for a more inclusive approach to community participation processes in green space planning and management. ii Acknowledgments I would like to extend my sincerest thanks to my supervisor, Dr. Sarah Wakefield.

During this same time period citizens began to mobilize and challenge the state on a number of social issues including race, gender, labour, urban sprawl and the environment. Citizens believed that not only did they have the right to challenge the authority of government in planning public policy, but they also had a right to participate in the decision- making process as much as any bureaucrat, expert, or elected official. In planning airports in Pickering, Ste. Scholastique and Sea Island, the federal government was opposed by citizen groups in each of these three cases. Citizens believed their voices were not being heard and that government officials did not respect them. As a result, they disrupted the meticulously laid out plans of elected officials and policy planners by drawing on evidence and expert advice.

    Better still... Real Jobs Now! Response to “Jets & Jobs: Summary of Findings from the Targeted Stakeholder Consultations by the Independent Advisor on the Economic Development of the Pickering Lands” January 1, 2017 1 General Observations What did the consultations glean? Very little that wasn’t already known. For those familiar with the Pickering airport file, this should come as no surprise. The same words, arguments, concerns, conflicting opinions, misconceptions, hopes, and aspirations can be found, in an unbroken thread, in headlines, articles, letters to editors, council resolutions, reports, and interviews spanning the entire 44 years (and counting) since the 1972 airport announcement. Why the report at all, then? The Harper government was on the cusp of calling an election and clearly believed the appearance of action on the airport file could be useful to the campaign. The original Pickering plan, after all, dates all the way back to the tenure of Trudeau père. Transport Canada was tasked with commissioning two studies – a needs analysis (begun this year by KPMG and not due to be completed until 2018) and a “what if ?” stakeholder consultation, essentially an opinion-gathering exercise on potential uses for the remaining Lands. “Jets & Jobs” is the result. It’s important to note that while the needs analysis is just the latest in a series of similar studies, the “potential uses” consultation was unique. It’s also important to note that it was announced as an independent undertaking. But “independent” – exempt from external control or support [OED] – was a bit of a misnomer. The Independent Advisor was selected and appointed by Transport Canada, briefed by Transport Canada, paid by Transport Canada; Transport Canada wrote the background notes, drafted the discussion questionnaire, drew up the list of stakeholders to interview; Transport Canada provided the meeting rooms and the note-taker, reviewed the draft report, and (we can be sure) intervened in its contents before release of the final version.
