Sorry, Farm friend, but I think one of us is confused - either me or you. I was under the impression that flybabe was agreeing with me on the tunnel vision of the AAC. I think there was a delay in your post and it was inserted after flybabe made her reply...but perhaps I'm mistaken?

It is a funny little dynamic. The ring leader of this circus lives in Edmonton and is desperately trying to get her foot in politics. She is a protest queen and has devoted her life to various protest causes for the last 10 years. Unfortunately, she is a small fish in a big pond in Edmonton, so she ...

Progress, progress! Check out Friends of Parkland Airport on Facebook!

Another closed meeting....I wonder if they will let their media liaison and ring leader attend? She lives in Edmonton...where is her proof of residency? But wait Tom...I am sure they will have a minute of silence...out of respect...before they stomp on the graves of those who gave their lives for ou...

Thank you LisaResident, I appreciate you taking the time and showing an interest, however; I am confident in my support of the developer. I attended a couple of the meetings they hosted last winter and found them openly transparent. Of course, there were many concerned citizens in attendance but aft...

I am getting confused. I thought people were protesting safety issues of this airport but now that they have been addressed, everyone suddenly wants access to the business model? Unless you are planning to invest, probably none of your business...sorry to sound offensive. I can see that those oppose...

In response to Marshall.. I am also a Parkland resident, however; I am not concerned with how the PADC has conducted their business, as they have done everything legally and with due process. If they had not done so, the federal government would have intervened. As far as listening to the opinions o...

It seems to me that the AAC has done a pretty good job expressing their concerns about this project. Perhaps what these government officials now need to hear are some positive responses regarding the development. I, for one, intend to let them know my thoughts. I am strongly encouraging any posters ...

So Rona Ambrose is concerned about Fire safety. I wonder if she did any research on this herself or if she is just regurgitating the invalid, inaccurate information fed to her by the AAC. Ambrose suggests that the fire response time would be upwards of 25 minutes. Good gracious! How long would it th...

I don't think this will hinder anything. They will just be certified sooner than they had planned.

I have heard that the city has been placing some restrictions on the growth and operations of the Museum at city center. Perhaps the parkland airport would be more accommodating for them as well. Although, it would be a shame to compromise a landmark, it would also be sad to see restrictions put on ...

Excellent point Tom! I also don't foresee the airport contributing to environmental pollution to any greater extent than the existing agricultural pollution that is already occurring (airport will likely create less allergens in the air) Somewhat concerned about the mayors implication that the count...

Thank you Aunty A. That was the reference I had looked at as well but I didn't find any 8.0 km reference, only 3.2. And certainly nothing on potatoes. But, thank you for your efforts and the link.

Does anyone know where Mayor Shagec is getting his facts? I think I must be missing something, according to transport Canada TP1247 part 3.3 agricultural and bird related concerns seem to be within 3.2 km not 8.0 km. and I don't see any mention of potatoes? Wouldn't that reduce his number of concern...

Much of the anti group's fears and concerns seem superficial but they are getting desperate and aggressive. They are pushing the big "sympathy for the destruction of our rural idyll." They are resorting to the lowest common denominator (and often) to evoke sympathy from impartial parties and I am ve...
