  • The Plan for Canada's Capital
    Judicial i This page is intentionally left blank for printing purposes. ii The Plan for Canada’s Capital 2017 to 2067 NATIONAL CAPITAL COMMISSION June 2016 iii The Capital of an extensive country, rapidly growing in population and wealth, possessed of almost unlimited water power for manufacturing purposes, and with a location admirably adapted not only for the building of a great city, but a city of unusual beauty and attractiveness. (…) Not only is Ottawa sure to become the centre of a large and populous district, but the fact that it is the Capital of an immense country whose future greatness is only beginning to unfold, (…) and that it be a city which will reflect the character of the nation, and the dignity, stability, and good taste of its citizens. Frederick Todd, 1903 “Preliminary Report to the Ottawa Improvement Commission” pp.1-2 iv EXECUTIVE SUMMARY For more than a century, the National Capital Commission (NCC) and its predecessors have embraced urban planning to promote the development, conservation and improvement of the National Capital Region, with the aim of ensuring that the nature and character of the seat of the Government of Canada is in accordance with its national significance. The consequences of these planning efforts have been the creation of parks and open spaces, public shorelines, campuses and clusters of government institutions, monuments and symbolic boulevards. This plan charts the future of federal lands in the National Capital Region between Canada’s sesquicentennial in 2017 and its bicentennial in 2067. It will shape the use of federal lands, buildings, parks, infrastructure and symbolic spaces to fulfill the vision of Canada’s Capital as a symbol of our country’s history, diversity and democratic values, in a dynamic and sustainable manner.

CNCCR Position Paper – Governance 45 CNCCR Brief to the NCC Mandate Review Panel – October 2006 Introduction and Overview The Coalition for NCC Renewal was formed as a result of the mandate review initiative announced by Minister Lawrence Cannon in April 2006. The Coalition was established primarily to ensure the conservation, expansion and good management of NCC lands in the National Capital Region. It consists of an umbrella group of 10 environmental and community organizations from Ottawa and Gatineau1 who have worked together for the last six months to develop a consensus on the major land use issues associated with the NCC and a series of recommendations to present to the Mandate Review Panel. Although our relations with NCC staff over the years have generally been cordial and its professional staff have demonstrated high standards, we have nevertheless identified several structural and functional problems, including a lack of accountability, transparency, land stewardship and governance issues we believe need to be addressed by the federal government.

  • 4.8 Human Heritage Appreciation
    RECREATIONAL VALUES 206 4.8 Human Heritage Appreciation The extraordinary history and human heritage of the Ottawa River is a source of pride for numerous communities along its shores. These are reflected in the many special events, festivals, museums, Figure 4.16 Looking Up the Ottawa From plaques and other interpretive structures that the Parliament Grounds exist along the length of the river. The Ottawa River flows through the Nation’s Capital, right by the Parliament Buildings, with sites and museums of national importance. Along the entire stretch of the river there are opportunities for human heritage appreciation related to the main heritage themes of the river. This section highlights a number of popular human heritage sites, focusing on museums and events along the river. Cultural heritage tourism is growing worldwide, Source : Picturesque Canada and is seen by the Ontario Tourism Marketing Partnership Corporation as a significant opportunity for Ontario’s rural and northern communities to increase their economic vitality (Professional Edge 3). The Outaouais region is Quebec’s third most popular tourism destination, although marketing of this region places a greater emphasis on natural heritage. Ottawa draws more than 5 million visitors annually, of which currently only 20 to 25% cross the Ottawa River to visit the Canadian Museum of Civilization and Gatineau Park (Ville de Gatineau: “Planification”). 4.8.1 Cultural Heritage Routes Cultural heritage routes have been developed on both sides of the river. Thematic visits and driving loops have been developed by tourism associations such as Tourisme Outaouais and the Ottawa Valley Tourism Association. Examples of cultural heritage routes with accompanying interpretation include the following: • Ottawa River Living Legacy Kiosks: A series of 12 interpretive kiosks have been placed along the length of the Ottawa River to recognize its history and unique ecology, as part of Ontario’s Living Legacy Landmarks program.
