For the first time since its creation in 1984, the annual Canadian Association of Planning Students ‐ L’Association Canadienne des Étudiants en Aménagement et en Urbanisme (CAPS‐ACÉAU) conference will proudly be hosted by students in the School of Planning at the University of Waterloo. The 2011 conference offers a venue for collaboration and discussion around the theme, Resilience: Planning for Dynamic Futures. Topics such as increased and intensified energy shortages, population imbalances, environmental degradation, climate change and income gaps will be tabled. In a time where the local is global and experts may either choose to ignore or befriend wikis, we seek to explore the complex systems we’re part of through the lens of resilience.
CAPS‐ACÉAU is a non‐profit student‐driven organization that hosts an annual conference for Canadian planning students. The event brings together planning students from across the country to expand their knowledge and to engage in discussions about urban and rural planning issues both in Canada and abroad. The conference offers delegates the opportunity to collaborate with their peers, pro-fessionals and academics, from across Canada, to explore progressive solutions to today’s most pressing planning challenges. Students may also present their own research, meet potential employers and learn about exciting jobs and research opportunities in their field.
We are thrilled to feature a number of high‐caliber speakers, insightful mobile tours, hands‐on skill‐building workshops, as well as student oral, model and poster presentations. Through World Café roundtable discussions a 2011 CAPS‐ACÉAU Waterloo Manifesto will be drafted capturing the conference’s collective view of resilient planning. This will be published in Canada’s national environmen-tal magazine, Alternatives Journal, among others.
This conference would not be possible without the generous support and commit-ment of our 2011 sponsors. Their professional and financial contributions speak to their dedication to the development and progression of the Canadian planning practice. Please take the time to introduce yourself to them.
We are all looking forward to the discussions over the next few days, and to welcoming participants who have travelled from across Canada and beyond to be here. It should prove to be an extremely rewarding and inspiring experience for everyone, with impacts carried well beyond the conference through the knowl-edge and connections that will be formed.

On behalf of the members of Council of the City of Waterloo, it is my pleasure to welcome participants to the Canadian Association of Plan-ning Students (CAPS) Conference at the University of Waterloo.
With a forward‐looking theme and an impressive list of keynote and panel speakers, this conference is sure to be a rich experience for all.
The CAPS Conference, titled Resilience: Planning for Dynamic Futures, is an opportunity for students from across Canada to come together, collaborate and share their planning research. This is a very important discussion and I’m pleased our city can play host.
Waterloo is a fitting location for an event of this nature, as this community has flourished thanks to the collaborative and resilient spirit that exists here. Our technology clusters, adaptive reuse of buildings, and intensified uptown are just a few examples of our resiliency.
I hope you take a lot away from both this conference and your time in Waterloo.
Mayor Brenda Halloran
Welcome to the Canadian Association of Planning Students Conference held in Kitchener and Waterloo, February 3 through 5, 2011. On behalf of my council colleagues and citizens of the City of Kitchener, it is my pleasure to invite all of you to enjoy the many attractions and outstand-ing hospitality our community has to offer.
Kitchener and the entire Waterloo Region have shown remarkable resil-ience in recent years, as our community has grown and weathered the uncertain economic climate. This weekend you will have a chance to see how our area, thanks in part to carefully considered planning principles, has embraced the growth it has been experiencing while remaining flex-
ible throughout our changing economy. For example the knowledge creation cluster in our city centre has brought tremendous success in our downtown while helping address employment lands demands and shifts in manufacturing approaches.
No doubt you will hear some excellent, knowledgeable speakers at this year’s conference. In addition, you will have the chance to share information, experiences and achievements within your field among your peers. Be sure to seize the opportunity to learn from and connect with one another over the course of this weekend.
Thank you to all the hard working volunteers and sponsors who have made this conference possible. Their efforts to support students, facilitators and educators in their studies are greatly appreciated. Best wishes for a successful, informative weekend!
Sincerely, Mayor Carl Zehr

It is our distinct pleasure to welcome you to the 2011 CAPS Conference. As the host institution, the University of Waterloo is extremely proud of the hardworking organizing committee composed of Planning students from the Faculty of Environ-ment’s School of Planning. These students epitomize the innovative, pragmatic and hard‐working spirit that is the hallmark of one of Canada’s top ranked institu-tions.
The program they have put together highlights the best of our Planning program and the host community of Waterloo. The School of Planning is home to over 500 students who are the latest cohort to be part of a tradition of excellence that has developed over our 40 year history. We’re part of a Faculty of Environment that is at the leading edge of research and teaching in Canadian and international environmental issues, many of which will be tackled in the context of this year’s conference.
This event will be long remembered as another pivotal part of our program and through your participation will leave a lasting mark on the Canadian Plan-ning scene. We thank you for your commitment to being part of this wonderful student‐led event and wish you all the best as a CAPS 2011 participant.

Brent Toderian, MCIPDirector of City PlanningCity of Vancouver, BC, Canada
Brent Toderian was appointed Vancouver’s Director of City Plan-ning in 2006, succeeding celebrated Co‐Directors Larry Beasley and Dr. Ann McAfee. His broad mandate involves development and architectural approvals, including many projects related to the 2010 Winter Olympics, as well as city‐wide and community visioning and policy, including leadership of the award‐winning “EcoDensity” city‐wide initiative and other initiatives key to
achieving Vancouver’s goal of becoming the greenest city in the world by 2020. Since as-suming the Director’s role, Brent has been promoting a candid dialogue around bold new opportunities for sustainability, creativity, and architectural risk‐taking. Brent came to Vancouver from the City of Calgary, where as Manager of Centre City Plan-ning + Design, he oversaw visioning, development and design in Calgary’s Downtown, Midtown and Beltline communities. Brent also created and was leading Calgary’s award‐winning Centre City Plan, which took an unusually holistic approach to the future success of Centre City.
Brent previously spent 4 years championing a new tone for innovative inner‐city and subur-ban neighbourhood design and integrated communities in Calgary as its Chief Subdivision Planner. For almost 10 years before that, Brent was an award‐winning planning and design consultant based in Ontario, working for and with many municipalities, community groups and developers from Toronto to Yellowknife. Brent had a particular emphasis on downtown and inner‐city planning and revitalization.
A passionate advocate for creative city‐building, urban design and architecture, Brent speaks and writes globally on the subjects, has taught and lectured at numerous universi-ties, has provided peer mentoring to many global cities, and is a co‐founder and President of the Council for Canadian Urbanism while sitting on numerous other boards and groups related to cities. Called a “sophisticated urbanist” by the Vancouver Sun, and an “urban firecracker” by the Globe and Mail, Brent practices what he calls holistic urbanism in all aspects of his work.
In real life he’s an avid skier and loves anything in the outdoors (urban and natural), is pas-sionate about all aspects of the arts, and is an avid traveler and student of cultures. Visit Brent’s blog at: http://www.planetizen.com/blg/10088.

Thomas Homer‐Dixon, Ph.D.Chair of Global SystemsCenter for International Governance AffairsBalsillie School of International Affairs
Thomas Homer‐Dixon holds the Centre for International Gov-ernance Innovation Chair of Global Systems at the Balsillie School of International Affairs in Waterloo, Canada, and is a Professor in the Centre for Environment and Business in the Faculty of Environment, University of Waterloo.
He was born in Victoria, British Columbia, in 1956 and grew up in a rural area outside the city. In 1980 he received his BA in Political Science from Carleton University in Ottawa. After completing his PhD in Political Science in 1989 at MIT in Cambridge, Massachu-setts—where he studied international relations, defense and arms control policy, cognitive science, and conflict theory—he moved to the University of Toronto and, in the subsequent eight years, led several international research projects examining the links between envi-ronmental stress and violence in developing countries.
Recently, his research has focused on threats to global security in the 21st century and on how societies adapt to complex economic, ecological, and technological change. His work is highly interdisciplinary, drawing on political science, economics, environmental studies, geography, cognitive science, social psychology, and complex systems theory.
Dr. Homer‐Dixon teaches undergraduate and graduate courses on environmental secu-rity; causes of war, revolution, and ethnic conflict; international relations; and complexity theory.
He has been invited to speak about his research at Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, and Cornell Universities, UC Berkeley, University of Chicago, MIT, West Point, Oxford and Cam-bridge Universities, the World Bank, the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, and the Council on Foreign Relations in New York.
Dr. Homer‐Dixon has also provided briefings to the Privy Council Office, the Department of Foreign Affairs, and the Department of Defence in Canada; and to the Central Intelligence Agency, the National Security Council, the State Department, the Agency for International Development, and the National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration in the United States.

Resilience: 1. (Of a substance etc.) recoiling; springing back; resuming its original shape after bending, stretching, compression, etc. 2. (Of a person) readily recover-ing from a shock, depression etc.” -The Canadian Oxford Dictionary, 2001
The 2010 CAPS‐ACÉAU conference in Guelph tabled discussions on Progressive Planning. This year we will explore the meaning, relevence, and challenges of incorporating resilience as planning progresses towards building sustainable com-munities. The Waterloo Manifesto, a document that seeks to present a collective perspective on resilience in the future of planning, will address such questions as:
Why build resilient communities? What future shocks and stresses do we need to consider in our attempt to embed resilience in our cities and neighbourhoods? What planning strategies and techniques will increase the capacity for resilience in our cities? What are the challenges to creating resilient communities?
The Waterloo Manifesto will serve as an enduring and tangible document shaped by the discussions during this years conference and will be published in Alterna-tives Journal, Canada’s environmental magazine. As you enter the profession, how will you address resilience?
