You would think that those two words would put a damper on the efforts of over thirty members of 51 Aerospace Control & Warning (Operational Training) Squadron (51 AC&W (OT) Sqn) during the 22 Wing Cares roadside stop held on Wednesday, December 11th, however, nothing could be farther from the truth! “Everyone loves to come out to support this initiative,” explains Major Andrew Lunn, Commanding Officer of 51 AC&W (OT) Sqn. With a full complement of instructors, students and staff in attendance – and even Santa - asking motorists to give generously to the North Bay Food Bank, they collected $2690.23 in donations and 1330 lbs of food for a total of 4020 lbs of food (1 dollar = 1 lb of food). The brain child of Tom Hedican, international renowned hockey coach, 51 AC&W (OT) Sqn’s Honorary Colonel emeritus and creator of Coach4Food in 2008, the program is now under the banner of My Team Cares and coordinated by Debbie and Heath Marson. 2019 marks the ninth year that 22 Wing has, once again, stepped up to support those in greatest need, showing North Bay how much we care.

  • Circumpolar Military Facilities of the Arctic Five
    CIRCUMPOLAR MILITARY FACILITIES OF THE ARCTIC FIVE Ernie Regehr, O.C. Senior Fellow in Arctic Security The Simons Foundation Last updated: April 2, 2013 Introduction In 2011 the Canadian Senate Committee on Security and Defence, in its interim report on Arctic sovereignty and security, asked this question: “Is the region again becoming militarized?”1 It is that question that prompts the following compilation of current military facilities in the circumpolar region. The current list is confined to the five Arctic Ocean states, but the intention is to expand it to include all the states of the Arctic Council. A simple listing of military bases, facilities, and equipment, either based or available for deployment in the Arctic Region, does not itself answer the question of militarization, but the listing is intended to contribute to the informed consideration of it, and to informed assessments of the likely security implications of particular military procurement programs and developments. The objective is to aid efforts toward a better understanding of the extent and nature of current and planned military capacity in the Arctic. A later paper will address the “militarization” question more directly. What follows relies on a broad range of media, governmental, academic, and research centre sources, all of which are indicated in the footnotes. Of particular value and importance have been and are the following: Rob Huebert, “The Newly Emerging Arctic Security Environment,” March 2010, Canadian Defence and Foreign Affairs Institute. http://www.cdfai.org/PDF/The%20Newly%20Emerging%20Arctic%20Security%20Environment.pdf. Rob Huebert, Heather Exner-Pirot Adam Lajeunesse, Jay Gulledge, “Climate Change and International Security: The Arctic as a Bellwether,” Center for Climate and Energy Solutions, 2012.
