  • Circumpolar Military Facilities of the Arctic Five
    CIRCUMPOLAR MILITARY FACILITIES OF THE ARCTIC FIVE Ernie Regehr, O.C. Senior Fellow in Defence Policy and Arctic Security The Simons Foundation and Michelle Jackett, M.A. Circumpolar Military Facilities of the Arctic Five Introduction This compilation of current military facilities in the circumpolar region1 continues to be offered as an aid to addressing a key question posed by the Canadian Senate more than five years ago: “Is the [Arctic] region again becoming militarized?”2 If anything, that question has become more interesting and relevant in the intervening years, with commentators divided on the meaning of the demonstrably accelerated military developments in the Arctic – some arguing that they are primarily a reflection of increasing military responsibilities in aiding civil authorities in surveillance and search and rescue, some noting that Russia’s increasing military presence is consistent with its need to respond to increased risks of things like illegal resource extraction, terrorism, and disasters along its frontier and the northern sea route, and others warning that the Arctic could indeed be headed once again for direct strategic confrontation.3 While a simple listing of military bases, facilities, and equipment, either based in or available for deployment in the Arctic Region, is not by itself an answer to the question of militarization, an understanding of the nature and pace of development of military infrastructure in the Arctic is nevertheless essential to any informed consideration of the changing security dynamics of the Arctic. What follows relies on a broad range of media, government, academic, and research centre sources, all of which are indicated in the footnotes.4 This paper is regarded as a “work in progress” and continues to be updated as new information and changes in military posture and engagement relative to the Arctic become available.

Planning is already underway for a larger venue in 2014 with lots of parking. Tuesday, 29 April 2014 is tentatively booked so please mark this date on your calendar. For a glimpse of this year’s concert and an upbeat performance of the Sailors’ Hornpipe check: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IijRdT1rNJY Many of you have generously donated your time to help, but we continue to look for volunteers. Some of our volunteers live outside Halifax and travel considerable distances to and from Sackville to participate in our activities. For example, Ted Kelly - Chair of the Battle of Atlantic Place Project - travels from Lunenburg on the South Shore, Debbie Findlay, our Financial Administrator is well up the Eastern Shore near Sherbrooke, and a previous Chair, Hugh MacNeil, routinely travelled from the Annapolis Valley several times a week. We need volunteers to take on specific tasks, such as the role of Editor of our newsletter, Action Stations. Pat Jessup has done a splendid job with it, but she is active in many other Canadian Naval Memorial Trust (CNMT) and community activities as well. She would be happy to have someone else under-study her for a few issues with athe view to take over production by the summer of 2014.

  • Canada in a New Maritime World LEADMARK 2050
    Canada in a New Maritime World LEADMARK 2050 Foreword Updated March 2017 FOREWORD “We are in the midst of a new oceanic era. Not since the great age of exploration in the 16th century have oceans played such an important role in global affairs. Unprecedented levels of commerce move across the world’s oceans, great power politics are being played out at sea, and oceans are central to the health of the global organism in an age of dramatic climate change. Moreover, we are in the process, for the first time in human history, of acquiring a new Ocean – the Arctic.” - Dr. James Boutilier, in his Vimy Award acceptance speech delivered at the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa, November 7, 2016. This statement by Dr. Boutilier, a prominent maritime analyst, points toward a Canadian navy that can deploy around the world, ready to meet all challenges across the spectrum of conflict, crisis and humanitarian assistance. We live in a maritime era, influenced by both traditional and emerging naval powers, with the balance of seapower shifting as investments in naval forces wax and wane. Naval budgets have increased by 60% among Asia-Pacific Vice-Admiral Ron Lloyd, centre, RIMPAC 2016 nations while Western countries continue to invest in their navies despite shrinking defence budgets. With the free flow of maritime commerce being the critical enabler of a vibrant world economy, seapower is once again taking centre stage in global affairs. In this context, the right navy for Canada needs to be deployable, and sustainable, around the world. It is within a highly charged maritime environment that we situate Leadmark 2050: Canada in a New Maritime World.
