For almost all of the past 55 years, the President’s Report has been written from the comfortable position of Past President. Writing this as a serving President is one of several changes that mark 2018 as a year of transition for the RAIC. Interim Executive Director Bruce Lorimer, FRAIC, continued in that role until early March. New CEO Mike Brennan took up where Bruce left off – working, as he notes in his report, “to build long-term sustainability, stability, and organizational excellence.” Acting on the direction of the Board, Mike achieved organizational economies and secured new sources of revenue for the Institute. This and other successes in 2018 have generated an even more important result: the renewed energy in the office as our staff goes about their work on our behalf. A priority in 2018 was the work of the Governance Committee. Finding the correct fit between an organization and its governance structure is essential.

  • OTTAWA Dec. 23, 2013 — Canada Post Needs to Deliver
    OTTAWA Dec. 23, 2013 — Canada Post needs to deliver excellent design if it goes ahead with a controversial plan to replace door-to-door service with community mailboxes, says the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada (RAIC). The RAIC, who advocates for a livable built environment, says group mailboxes will affect the urban landscape and quality of life of Canadians. Allan Teramura, RAIC regional director for Ontario North, East and Nunavut, says the impact on streets and green spaces will be significant. “The problem of retrofitting these to existing neighborhoods is going to be extremely challenging,” he says. “There’s no information provided to date that shows how this will be done in a way that’s acceptable to anyone.” As the first G-8 country to end door-to-door service, this experiment will receive international attention. “Architects and urban designers should be involved in the development and planning of such postal nodes,” says RAIC president-elect Wayne De Angelis. “They must be considered as part of the urban fabric just as mail slots and post boxes were considered in the planning of our homes,” he says. Canada Post’s proposal raises many questions. When we are advocating sustainable cities, will people drive to collect their mail? While we improve accessibility in buildings, how will strollers, wheelchairs and seniors safely reach the clustered boxes in the dark and snow of winter? If you’d like to start a conversation about why Canada Post’s plan needs careful and creative design thinking, RAIC board members across the country are available for comment.

However, there has been little academic attention given to the media construction of the diaspora identities of Hong Kong Canadians. In order to partially fill this existing gap, this research examined how a newspaper aimed at the Hong Kong Canadian community promoted a specific understanding of identity. In particular, this thesis examines the frames promoted and core messages about identities conveyed in the Sing Tao Daily as it reported on significant events leading up to Hong Kong’s Handover in 1997.
