These ninety-three airports reported almost 5.6 million movements in 2011, down 2.7% compared to 2010. • Over 4.0 million itinerant movements (flights from one airport to another) were recorded in 2011. These airports handled 1.3% fewer movements (-54,869 movements) in 2011 compared with 2010. This represented the third consecutive annual decline. • Local movements (flights that remain in the vicinity of the airport) declined 6.1% (-101,141 movements) in 2011 compared with 2010. This marked the fourth consecutive annual decline. Statistics Canada – Catalogue no. 51-209-X 5 Analysis For the third year in a row, the number of aircraft take-offs and landings at the 93 Canadian airports with NAV CANADA air traffic control towers and flight service stations decreased compared to the previous year. These ninety-three airports reported almost 5.6 million movements in 2011, down 2.7% (-156,010 movements) compared to 2010. The severe winter storms, in early 2011, which affected both eastern Canada and the northeastern United States, resulted in delays and cancellations of numerous flights. Toronto/Lester B. Pearson International, Ontario (430,549 movements) followed by Vancouver International, British Columbia (298,483 movements) continued to be the most active sites in 2011. There were 4.0 million itinerant movements (flights from one airport to another) reported in 2011. This represents a decrease of 1.3% (-54,869 movements) compared with 2010, and the third consecutive annual decline. The year-over-year variations ranged from an increase of 13,591 movements (+6.3%) at Montréal/Pierre Elliott Trudeau International, Quebec to a decline of 19,972 movements (-29.7%) at Moncton/Greater Moncton International, New Brunswick. Year-over-year increases in the number of itinerant aircraft movements were reported by 51 airports. In 2011, there were 1.6 million local movements (flights that remain in the vicinity of the airport) recorded. This represents a decrease of 6.1% (-101,141 movements) compared with 2010, and the fourth consecutive annual decline. Montréal/St-Hubert, Quebec (88,184 movements) followed by Boundary Bay, British Columbia (87,390 movements) reported the largest number of local movements in 2011. Itinerant movements: domestic, transborder and international There were 3.4 million domestic itinerant movements reported at 93 Canadian airports in 2011, a decrease for the third consecutive year. There were 49,673 fewer domestic itinerant movements (-1.4%) reported in 2011. Vancouver International, British Columbia (223,222 movements) followed by Calgary International, Alberta (187,311 movements) and Toronto/Lester B. Pearson International, Ontario (187,146 movements) reported the greatest number of domestic itinerant movements. Ninety-three airports reported 502,083 transborder itinerant movements (between Canada and the United States) in 2011, down 0.6% (-2,900 movements) from the previous year. Year-over-year increases were reported by 46 airports. Toronto/Lester B. Pearson International, Ontario reported 181,953 movements. This represents 36.2% of the total transborder itinerant movements.

  • Annual Reportopen a New Window
    2019 › BEYOND THE SKIES NAV CANADA FIRST TO LAUNCH SPACE-BASED DOMESTIC AIRCRAFT SURVEILLANCE SAFER MORE EFFICIENT LOWER EMISSION AIR TRAVEL No matter how you look at it, space-based ADS-B (SB ADS-B) air traffic surveillance is a true game-changer. As an investor in Aireon, the joint venture deploying SB ADS-B, NAV CANADA continues to play a leading role in bringing this remarkable innovation to the world. For decades, air traffic surveillance and monitoring has relied mostly on ground-based radar—a system that has some shortcomings. Because it needs a line-of-sight to its target, ground-based radar can’t always track aircraft in hilly or mountainous terrain, and it can’t be deployed at all in the oceans. These kinds of limitations mean that the systems we have relied on to monitor global air traffic actually covered just 30 percent of global airspace. Looking down from a network of 66 satellites in orbit around Earth, Aireon SB ADS-B has no such limitations. It provides complete coverage—100 percent of global airspace—and it does it in real time, relaying the position, speed, heading and other data from transponder-equipped aircraft twice every second. The implementation of SB ADS-B offers tremendous benefits, especially where safety is concerned. With total coverage in real time, air traffic systems will be able to identify and address potential loss of separation between aircraft before it occurs. Should an aircraft go missing, its precise location will be known in a matter of seconds—at a time when seconds matter.

  • Toronto-Buttonville, Ontario
    NOTICE OF CHANGE Closure of the Air Traffic Control Tower and Contract Weather Office Toronto-Buttonville, Ontario NAV CANADA, the country's provider of civil air navigation services, conducted an aeronautical study that reviewed the Air Traffic and Aviation Weather Services at the Toronto-Buttonville Airport. The study recommended the closure of the Air Traffic Control tower (Twr) and Contract Weather Office (CWO). The part-time control tower service with Class D Control Zone (CZ) will be replaced with a Mandatory Frequency (MF) area using the current tower VHF frequency 124.8 MHz and the CZ will become Class E airspace for 24-hours per day. Note that a portion of the CZ ceiling was lowered to 2000’ ASL and the ABV 2,000' ASL Toronto Terminal Control Area (TCA) boundary was adjusted as per AIP Supplement 50/18 on 13 Sept 2018. See the map sketch below for a depiction of the final CZ and TCA airspace changes resulting from the aeronautical study. IFR approach clearances will continue to be issued directly to pilots from the Toronto Area Control Center (ACC) on the Terminal frequency 133.4 MHz. Arrival reports can be made after landing to the London Flight Information Center (FIC) via the on-site Remote Communications Outlet (RCO) on 123.15 MHz or by telephone. IFR departure clearances can be obtained from the London FIC via phone, via the RCO, or direct from the ACC on 133.4 MHz airborne after a VFR departure. The 24-hour aviation weather observation service provided by the CWO will be replaced with a Limited Weather Information System (LWIS).

I can tell you that the one truth in advertising, that last night as I was working on my remarks and I said to my 14 year-old son, I said, "Connor, do you want to listen to some of this?" So Connor lis- tened for about 90 seconds and said, "Dad, I am going to watch 'My Name is Earl."' So you are warned. As I look across, I see my friend Mark Romat and so many others, and I encourage you all perhaps to have another drink because probably the worst position one can have is speaking on a Saturday night. However, as they say, we have heard the best now, Henry, and I will try now to do what I can do.
