Planning Canadian Regions was the first book to integrate the history, contemporary practice, and emergent issues of regional planning in Canada. This much-anticipated second edition brings the discussion up to date, applying the same thorough analysis to illuminate the rapid changes now shaping our regional landscapes and their planning. This new edition draws upon contemporary analyses, projects, and literature to address issues of spatial complexity now facing regional planners in an era marked by increasing interdependence between cities and their regions, climate change, and respectful accommodation of Aboriginal peoples. The volume has been expanded to include: a comprehensive examination of the regional planning dimensions of climate change adaptation and environmental sustainability across Canada an in-depth analysis of the inequities of economic development faced in peripheral resource regions in the Provincial and Territorial North and discussion of the potential for place-based planning respect for the role that Aboriginal peoples must play in the planning of their regions and the impact this has for all regions across Canada a broad exploration of the distinctive planning needs of metropolitan regions across the country, including the unique case of the Greater Toronto megaregion. Comprehensive and timely, this book challenges planners, educators, and policy makers to engage with the latest thinking and strive for best practices in twenty-first century regional planning.
