On November 26, 1999, Deputy Minister Margaret Bloodworth presented the DM's Commendation Award to a team of highly dedicated individuals in Ports Programs and Divestiture for their outstanding work performed on the de-proclamation of 129 public ports in Canada. >

A Great team >

Congratulations to a great team! Judy Boulay, Marie-Claude Gagnon, Deputy Minister Margaret Bloodworth, and Mary Taylor.>

The Port Corporations team, led by Mary Taylor, senior advisor, with support from Judy Boulay, advisor, and Marie-Claude Gagnon, assistant, expertly performed a wide range of activities associated with the pre-consultation phase and the pre-publication consultation, which took place between August 1998 and January 1999. These activities included developing regulatory packages for Governor in Council approval in the Canada Gazette Parts I and II and the preparation of detailed material for meetings with 24 stakeholder organizations throughout the country. The team also conducted three mass mailings to 550 stakeholders to inform them of the Department's plans concerning public ports. >

Wayne Harper Receives ICAS Award>

December 4, 1999 was a special night for one of TC's aviation safety inspectors. In Nashville, Tennessee at the International Council of Air Shows' Chairman's Banquet and Awards Presentation, a Special Merit Award was presented to Wayne Harper. The audience provided a thunderous round of applause as Wayne received a plaque in recognition and appreciation of his outstanding contributions to the Air Show Industry. >

From the early 1990s, Wayne was instrumental in the harmonization of air show regulations and procedures among TC, the United States Federal Aviation Administration and Canada's Department of National Defence. >

Wayne is very professional and concerned for those we regulate and the public we protect. He also takes pride in his work and Wayne's colleagues are proud to work with him. That's why it is particularly gratifying to see that Wayne's hard work is also recognized by those we regulate and by those with whom we work in this partnership called aviation safety. >

As described by another TC inspector at the event, "it was an honour to attend the event with Wayne. The high regard in which he is held by the ICAS board, the general and military aviation communities was reflected not only in the way Wayne was treated, but also in the treatment that his colleagues received." >

Congratulations Wayne and thank you! >
