  • How to Get to the Wild West Coast... Tofino B.C
    HOW TO GET TO THE WILD WEST COAST... TOFINO B.C. Tofino is found on the wild west coast of Vancouver Island. Stand on the beach in Tofino and the next land you would reach, going west, would be Japan. The drive between Victoria and Tofino was recently ranked as one of the top three drives in Canada in the 2004 edition of the Michelin North American Road Atlas. Found at the very end of the Trans-Canada Highway, Tofino and Long Beach Lodge Resort are located 321 kilometres from Victoria, 208 kilometres from Nanaimo, (Vancouver Island’s second largest city), and 130 kilometres west of Port Alberni and 42 kilometres north of Ucluelet on Highway 4 (also called the Pacific Rim Highway). Vancouver Island and Tofino are easily accessible by sea, air and land. Driving times are approximate, especially if you stop to view the stunning scenery along the way: Victoria to Tofino = 4.5 hrs Nanaimo to Tofino = 2.5 hrs Port Alberni to Tofino = 1.5 hrs BY SEA BC Ferries Year-round, daily vehicle and passenger ferry service from Mainland BC to Vancouver Island Vancouver (Tsawwassen and Horseshoe Bay) to Victoria (Swartz Bay) or Nanaimo (Departure Bay and Duke Point) In person at their new Vacations Centre located at 1010 Canada Place, Vancouver BC or call 1-888-223-3779 Tel: (250) 386-3431 www.bcferries.bc.ca Victoria Clipper Year-round, daily passenger ferry service between Seattle and Victoria Tel: (206) 448-5000 www.victoriaclipper.com Black Ball Transport Year-round, daily vehicle and passenger ferry service between Victoria and Port Angeles, WA on

  • Response to the KPMG Study: Pickering Lands Aviation Sector Analysis
    Response to the KPMG Study: Pickering Lands Aviation Sector Analysis Land Over Landings April 18, 2020 (rev. April 26, 2020) © Land Over Landings, 2020 1 Contents Overview and General Observations / 3 Extracts and Detailed Comments on the Reports / 5 The Supply and Demand Report / 6 The Contextual Bridge Report / 27 The Airport Type and Role Report / 28 The Revenue Generation and Economic Impact Assessment Report / 47 End Note / 49 2 Overview and General Observations In 2016, Transport Canada tasked KPMG to forecast capacity and demand in the southern Ontario airport system for the 20-year period 2016 to 2036. Following completion of the supply and demand study, KPMG conducted an additional three studies, which took so long to produce that some details of the December 2016 forecast report are now significantly out of date, and the later, newer sections diverge from the first report in tone, intent, and perspective. Because of the disjointed structure (four separate reports purporting to be one) and the extended timeline, a lot of material is repeated – and even contradicted – in subsequent reports. Regardless, the essential conclusion is clear, and is expressed frequently and unequivocally in the Supply and Demand Report (December 2016) – in fact, it is repeated no fewer than eighteen times, not counting five times in the executive summary. No additional airport in southern Ontario will be needed to meet 2036 demand. The report shows that, with modest capacity expansions of some existing airports, southern Ontario airport capacity will not only meet forecasted demand but will exceed it by a huge margin. The report further states that adequate runway and terminal building capacity exists within the system as a whole, with the introduction of high-speed rail services in the region.
