  • Explore-Edmonton-And-Northlands
    World Trade Centre Phone: 780.424.9191 5th Floor, 9990 Jasper Avenue Toll Free: 1.800.463.4667 Edmonton, Alberta, T5J 1P7 www.exploreedmonton.com June 10, 2021 Explore Edmonton to take on K-Days and Farmfair International, Northlands to wind down Edmonton, AB – Explore Edmonton and Northlands have reached a tentative agreement whereby K-Days and Farmfair International will be transitioned to and managed by Explore Edmonton moving forward. The formal transition will take place on July 5th, with Northlands winding down its operations once the transition is concluded. Last year, the City of Edmonton asked Northlands and Explore Edmonton to evaluate whether there was an opportunity for the two organizations to work together to reinvent and deliver K- Days and Farmfair in a financially sustainable way. For the last several months, Northlands and Explore Edmonton have been engaged in discussions – facilitated by the City of Edmonton – about what this new working relationship might look like. In early 2021, Explore Edmonton concluded a feasibility study that determined the organization was well-positioned to deliver both events given its new mandate as the Destination Management and Marketing Organization (DMMO) for Edmonton and its existing management responsibilities of the Edmonton Expo Centre. “The Explore Edmonton team was humbled by the confidence City Council and others showed in us when it was suggested we could take this on. We know that it has been a challenging time for our friends at Northlands and that this has not been easy. We intend to honour and respect their legacy of service to Edmonton by relaunching their events in exciting and dynamic new ways.” – Maggie Davison, Interim CEO, Explore Edmonton As the discussions evolved, it became clear that from a viability and financial sustainability perspective, the right approach was for Northlands to move the assets to Explore Edmonton and wind down its operations.

Introduction This Issues and Opportunities Brief summarizes the technical analyses completed as part of Phase 2 of Edmonton’s Exhibition Lands Transformation (formerly named the Coliseum Station Area Redevelopment Plan). It incorporates the findings from the following project tasks: › Transportation technical analysis › Civil infrastructure technical analysis › Site visits and analysis › Context analysis › Public and stakeholder engagement The summary and discussion provided on the following pages should be supplemented by the more detailed findings of these technical studies, where available, and by the Phase 1 What We Heard Report that describes the results of public engagement to date. The Exhibition Lands project will study the lands centred on the former exhibition grounds located between the Coliseum and Stadium LRT Stations, including the Coliseum arena and EXPO Convention Centre, and the edges of surrounding communities. The study area boundaries (shown on the following pages) have been designed to encompass neighbourhoods with the highest potential for change in the future, and to enable the project to consider transitions and connections between the City lands and existing residential areas, nearby open spaces and the broader transportation network. Note that the project is in a stage of transition, with a focus on creating a more collaborative and transformational vision for the future of the Exhibition Lands.

  • Edmonton Tourism and Hospitality Industries Commit to GBAC STAR™ Accreditation
    Edmonton Tourism and Hospitality Industries Commit to GBAC STAR™ Accreditation EDMONTON, AB.—March 10, 2021—Explore Edmonton, the visitor economy and venue management organization for Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, has announced a collaborative initiative to pursue city- wide GBAC STAR™ Facility Accreditation from the Global Biorisk Advisory Council™ (GBAC), a Division of ISSA. The collaborative effort includes Edmonton International Airport; Edmonton Destination Marketing Hotels (EDMH), which oversees 38 properties across the city; Rogers Place; the Oilers Entertainment Group; and the already-accredited Edmonton Convention Centre and Edmonton EXPO Centre. “Edmonton’s tourism, hospitality, and events industries will play an important role in our region’s post- COVID-19 recovery, getting people back to work, welcoming travelers back to the city, and delivering important economic and social benefits to our region,” said Maggie Davison, acting CEO of Explore Edmonton. “Edmonton’s GBAC STAR Accreditation will ensure our international airport, major venues, and hotels are all working toward the same standards for cleanliness and outbreak prevention. By working in partnership, Edmonton can safely reopen for business and provide one of the safest travel experiences in North America, from arrival to departure.” To obtain GBAC STAR Accreditation, facilities must demonstrate compliance with 20 specific elements including maintaining strict cleaning protocols, disinfection techniques, infectious disease prevention planning, staff training, and more. Once complete, Edmonton will be the first and only Canadian destination to obtain the GBAC STAR™ Accreditation and one of only two destinations throughout North America. “The pursuit of GBAC STAR Facility Accreditation by various venues in Edmonton is a testament to the city’s commitment to making cleaning, disinfection, and infection prevention an ongoing priority for its citizens and visitors,” said GBAC Executive Director Patricia Olinger.

In 2016 those events affected Edmonton? were numerous, significant, and often unthinkable. 2016 saw so many unexpected events… One example was the largest leak of confidential data ever; this was larger than the US diplomatic cables released by WikiLeaks in 2010, and larger than the secret intelligence documents given to journalists by Edward Snowden in 2013. Known as the Panama Papers, the documents show the myriad ways in which the rich can exploit secretive offshore tax regimes. Twelve national leaders are among 143 politicians, their families and close associates from around the world known to have been using offshore tax havens, with people from China and Russia topping the list. At last count, 625 Canadians were identified in these documents. In June, 2016 an event that shook the pundits occurred when the majority vote chose in favour of ‘Brexit’ through the United Kingdom European Union (EU) membership referendum. Trade protectionism and a promised southern wall outplayed a campaign filled with rhetoric that would have taken down previous candidates, and Donald Trump was elected the 45th President of the United States. Combined with the Brexit vote, these campaigns unearthed overwhelming segments of the populations who did not feel reflected in earlier governments.
