This MEKS mandate is to consider land and water areas which the proposed project will utilize, and to identify what Mi’kmaq traditional use activities have occurred, or are currently occurring within, and what Mi’kmaq ecological knowledge presently exists in regards to the area. In order to ensure accountability and ethic responsibility of this MEKS, the MEKS development has adhered to the “Mi’kmaq Ecological Knowledge Protocol”. This protocol is a document that has been established by the Assembly of Nova Scotia Mi’kmaq Chiefs, which speaks to the process, procedures and results that are expected of a MEKS. The Mi’kmaq Ecological Knowledge Study consisted of two major components: • Mi’kmaq Traditional Land and Resource Use Activities , both past and present, • A Mi’kmaq Significance Species Analysis , considering the resources that are important to Mi’kmaq use. The Mi’kmaq Traditional Land and Resource Use Activities component utilized interviews as the key source of information regarding Mi’kmaq use in the Project Site and Study Area.

    AVIATION OCCURRENCE REPORT COLLISION WITH SNOWBANK TRURO FLYING CLUB CESSNA AIRCRAFT COMPANY C152 C-GREJ DEBERT, NOVA SCOTIA 17 DECEMBER 1994 REPORT NUMBER A94A0242 MANDATE OF THE TSB The Canadian Transportation Accident Investigation and Safety Board Act provides the legal framework governing the TSB's activities. Basically, the TSB has a mandate to advance safety in the marine, pipeline, rail, and aviation modes of transportation by: ! conducting independent investigations and, if necessary, public inquiries into transportation occurrences in order to make findings as to their causes and contributing factors; ! reporting publicly on its investigations and public inquiries and on the related findings; ! identifying safety deficiencies as evidenced by transportation occurrences; ! making recommendations designed to eliminate or reduce any such safety deficiencies; and ! conducting special studies and special investigations on transportation safety matters. It is not the function of the Board to assign fault or determine civil or criminal liability. However, the Board must not refrain from fully reporting on the causes and contributing factors merely because fault or liability might be inferred from the Board's findings. INDEPENDENCE To enable the public to have confidence in the transportation accident investigation process, it is essential that the investigating agency be, and be seen to be, independent and free from any conflicts of interest when it investigates accidents, identifies safety deficiencies, and makes safety recommendations. Independence is a key feature of the TSB. The Board reports to Parliament through the President of the Queen's Privy Council for Canada and is separate from other government agencies and departments. Its independence enables it to be fully objective in arriving at its conclusions and recommendations.

Madigan Disclaimer The conclusions and opinions expressed in this document are those of the author cultivated in the freedom of expression and of an academic environment. Gerry (GD) Madigan, CD1, MA is a retired logistician, Canadian Armed Forces. Major (Retired) Madigan’s career spans 28 Years as a finance officer. His notable postings included time served at National Defence Headquarters, CFB Europe, Maritime Canada and the First Gulf War as comptroller in Qatar. He is a graduate of the Royal Military College of Canada, Kingston Ontario, and War Studies Program. 17 January 2011 This paper has been accepted for publication 19 January 2011 in the Canadian Aviation Historical Society Journal (Spring 2011) Major William Marsh Editor 1 Introduction In the hurly burly of early World War II, Canada helped lay the foundation of ultimate victory. Canada’s greatest contribution in that war was arguably the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan (BCATP). But really it was just one of three efforts; the others being the build up of the Royal Canadian Navy to the third largest in the world and the fielding of a Canadian Army in Western Europe and Italy. Canada’s war effort was therefore a triad of Canadian military power that greatly contributed to an Allied victory in World War II. Canadians often underrate that contribution. But it was a great sacrifice of national treasure in the cost of lives and money that was disproportionate to our population, geography, and economy at the time.

In January 2008, the Province of Nova Scotia announced that Minas Basin Pulp and Power Co Ltd. had been awarded the opportunity to construct a tidal energy testing and research facility in the Minas Basin, known as the Fundy Tidal Energy Demonstration Facility. This Facility will be managed by a non-profit corporation called FORCE. The objectives of this study are twofold; - to undertake a broad MEKS study for the Bay of Fundy Phase I Area as it may relate to future renewable energy projects i.e. wind, tidal and wave, specifically in Phase 1 area of the Bay of Fundy ( as identified in MGC Proposal - Minas Channel and Minas Basin), and - to undertake a more focused MEKS review specific to the Fundy Tidal Energy Demonstration Project area which would consider the land and water area potentially affected by the project, identify what is the Mi’kmaq traditional use activity that has or is currently taking place within the Project Site and Study Area and what Mi’kmaq ecological knowledge presently exists in regards to the Project Site and Study Area.
