SUMMARY:CUI CityTalk - Mobility as a Service: How can MaaS support better mobility access?
DESCRIPTION:The COVID-19 pandemic has brought to the fore glaring gaps in our transportation networks especially for those reliant on transit services. To meet our collective goals around transportation equity\, climate change\, and municipal fiscal responsibility\, transit service delivery may require a different model\, one already implemented in several cities across the world. Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is an integrated platform that combines multiple modes including public transit\, taxis\, ride-hailing\, scooter\, bike\, and car sharing\, and sometimes even parking fees and road tolls on one easy-to-use navigation and payment app. \nCUI and AECOM’s joint report\, “Mobility as a Service: A Feasibility Study on Implementing MaaS in the Greater Toronto Area\,” examines the region’s existing transportation infrastructure landscape and its current economic\, political\, technological\, and operational conditions. \nJoin our panellists to explore the conversation around MaaS acceptance and implementation and how\, if directed intentionally\, the model can support better mobility access. \nTosh Chambers – Senior Program Director\, Move PGH (Pittsburg\, PA) \nJustin Trevan – Vice President\, Cities Growth Strategy at AECOM (Toronto\, ON) \nDeborah Wathen Finn – President\, The Wathen Group (Westfield\, NJ) \nRegister here!

SUMMARY:AeroVenture Casey 2023
DESCRIPTION:Célébrons l’aviation et la liberté de voler Le plus gros évènement d’aviation au Canada 1er au 4 septembre 2023 ! \nCASEY\, QC – AéroVenture\, présenté par le Camp de Base et Club Copa 217 a le plaisir de vous dévoiler sa programmation en vue de la 3e édition de l’événement\, qui aura lieu du 1er au 4 septembre prochain sur le territoire des vestiges militaires et la piste d’atterrissage CSQ4 dans le secteur de Casey\, à La Tuque. \n« Amateurs d’aviation et de plein air\, un rendez-vous à ne pas manquer. Joignez-vous aux nombreux visiteurs qui arrivent des quatre coins du Canada et du nord-est des États-Unis. Que vous arriviez des airs\, par la route ou par train\, soyez des nôtres »\, mentionne Naor Cohen\, promoteur de l’évènement. \n« Je suis très heureux de me joindre à l’équipe de Naor Cohen à titre de président d’honneur de cette 3e édition. C’est un très bel événement qui permet à beaucoup de gens de découvrir l’un des trésors cachés de La Tuque\, le secteur de Casey. Naor fait un travail formidable avec son équipe pour accueillir tous les participants et leur offrir un séjour mémorable chez nous. Je suis plus qu’enchanté de le soutenir dans ses démarches et j’invite toute la population à participer aux activités qui auront lieu en septembre. L’événement vaut vraiment le détour »\, relate Luc Martel\, maire de La Tuque. \n« Je suis toujours présent à l’AéroVenture de Casey et chaque fois je suis impressionné par la qualité des activités. L’équipe de M. Naor Cohen fait un travail formidable pour faire connaître Casey\, qui est un lieu magnifique à découvrir pour les amateurs d’aviation. L’événement ne cesse de grandir et de s’améliorer d’une année à l’autre. Nous sommes fiers que ça se passe chez nous »\, mentionne le conseiller municipal du district de Parent\, Éric Chagnon. \nSaviez-vous que la piste d’atterrissage de Casey fête ses 70 ans cette année? \nAfin de souligner les 70 ans vestigieux et militaires de la piste CSQ4\, des pilotes d’Aviation Royale Canadienne survoleront le site afin de commémorer l’existence de cette dernière le 2 septembre en après-midi. Il sera aussi possible de visiter l’intérieur d’un CF18. \nCoup de tambour: Une cérémonie de protection sera aussi exécutée par un chamane Atikamekw afin de purifier la terre mère du territoire. ‘Nikawinan Aski ‘. \nDu nouveau! \nLa première édition du Demi-Marathon de Casey se tiendra le dimanche 3 septembre en matinée. Organisé par Naor Cohen\, triathlète lui-même\, fondateur et directeur général du Camp de Base. \n« Un parcours hors du commun! Nous avons dessiné et testé un circuit qui prend les coureurs sur une visite des vestiges de la guerre froide tout en profitant de la nature. Quatre distances sont proposées. Pour encourager les enfants de moins de 12 ans\, l’inscription est gratuite. Il y aura aussi des tours d’hélicoptères et d’avions (payants)\, une exposition aéronautique ainsi le Marsé AéroVenture »\, ajoute Naor Cohen. \nUne grande primeur ! \nCasey entre dans l’histoire de la radiodiffusion! Cette année les visiteurs vivront l’ouverture d’une nouvelle station de radio pendant toute la durée de l’événement. AéroVenture 89\,1 FM pourra être syntonisée directement sur le site de la CSQ4. En direct\, entrevues\, programmation\, informations tout y sera. Une autre belle opportunité de visibilité et de représentation nationale sur le territoire de L’agglomération La Tuque! C’est une occasion à ne pas manquer. \nCasey est rempli d’histoires et d’évènements qui ont marqué la région\, de la construction d’une base militaire durant la guerre froide dans les années 50 jusqu’aux évènements du pilote mercenaire\, Raymond Boulanger. Perdue en pleine forêt\, cette piste a une valeur patrimoniale et touristique inestimable pour le territoire du district de Parent de l’agglomération La Tuque et la région de la Mauricie. \nDepuis 2012\, un RVA de nature plutôt informelle s’organisait et invitait sans formalité les pilotes amateurs à une activité annuelle assez originale\, soit de l’aérocamping sur un mystérieux vestige de la guerre froide. AéroVenture est donc né de ce RVA annuel. En 2022 AéroVenture Casey a accueilli: 241 aéronefs\, 28 hydravions\, 22 hélicoptères\, 260 VR\, 92 avions en formule camping et 2600 visiteurs pour la durée de l’événement. \nC’est une occasion à ne pas manquer\, faites-vous connaître ! \n« Nous travaillons avec acharnement pour inciter les entreprises locales\, provinciales et nationales à se joindre à la fête à titre de commanditaire/partenaire de la 3e édition d’AéroVenture 2023. Aviation Royale Canadienne\, Ville La Tuque\, Marie-Louise Tardif\, député Laviolette-Saint-Maurice\, Breitling 1884\, Cirrus\, Capone Gourmet\, Magasin général Parent\, Air Tunilik\, BMR\, Copa\, X Reload\, Poule des Bois\, Passeport Hélico\, Desjardins La Tuque et Zénair sont quelques-uns de nos commanditaires/partenaires confirmés à ce jour et il y en aura d’autres à vous annoncer prochainement »\, ajoute Naor Cohen. \nLe succès et la pérennité d’AéroVenture Casey misent sur les bénévoles\, des membres\, des partenaires et des commanditaires. Nous avons besoin de vous! Notre campagne de sollicitation se terminera le 30 juillet 2023. \nAéroVenture se veut rassembleur et communautaire. Sans le soutien de nos membres\, il serait impossible de maintenir le site\, améliorer les installations et assurer la pérennité de la piste d’atterrissage. Individuel\, familial ou corporatif\, il y a des forfaits d’adhésions pour tous! Nous vous encourageons fortement à le devenir si vous voulez que l’événement demeure accessible et gratuit pour tous. \nOn se donne rendez-vous du 1er au 4 septembre prochain !

SUMMARY:Cities for Everyone: The City We Want Barcelona
DESCRIPTION:Towards The City We Want\, BarcelonaGuest: \nXavier Matilla. City Architect & Planner\, Professor.\nBarcelona\, Spain \nTuesday\, September 5th\, 2023\n11:00 AM EST/5:00 PM CET \nAbout: \nXavier Matilla was Chief Architect of the city of Barcelona between October 2019 – June 2023. During this period\, he has directed many urban transformations with the aim of achieving a healthier\, friendlier and fairer city. Highlight being the “Barcelona Superblock” project\, internationally recognized as an effective strategy to transform city streets into spaces with better environmental quality and more l ABOUT his presentation: At a time when cities need new urban models to approach the future with optimism\, Barcelona has shown that it is possible to move towards a healthier\, kinder and fairer city for it citizens thanks to the Superilla Project. Barcelona is a compact and dense city\, with a polycentric urban model\, but it has a significant deficit of green areas and a problem with its car-centered mobility model. Car use takes up more than 50% of public space and is also the main source of atmospheric and noise pollution. Superilla aims to improve all the city’s streets\, while proposing a new\, more efficient mobility model through promoting public transport\, cycling and walking\, so that it takes up less room\, is healthier and pollutes less. This allows 1 out of every 3 streets to be freed up from through traffic\, and to transform them into new “green axes” in such a way that they “naturalise” the city and promote local activities and social relationships\, constituting a true environmental and social infrastructure\, a true systemic change. During the last 4 years Xavi Matilla has promoted the project\, defining a vision of the future for the whole city and at the same time executing a phase with 4 new green axes (4.65 Km / 10Ha) and 4 new squares (1Ha) that allow to demonstrate that it is possible to move towards the city we want. \nLearn more and register here!

SUMMARY:Livable Cities Forum: From Intention to Implementation
DESCRIPTION:Most Canadian cities and towns were not built with a vision of a net zero\, resilient\, and sustainable future. So what does the transition to resilient\, equitable\, and livable communities look like? How can we embrace diversity and inclusion in the process? And\, ultimately\, how can we accelerate implementation to keep pace with challenges municipalities face? \nJoin ICLEI Canada from September 25 to 27 for the 2023 Livable Cities Forum (LCF) to explore these questions through the lens of “Intention to Implementation”. \nLearn more and register here!
