President’s Report
As President for 2011 I am pleased to report on the activities of the Board and the RAIC
during the past year. The role of President and Board member was made all the easier
thanks to the hard work of our new Executive Director, Jim McKee, and all the other
staff at the Ottawa office. I would also like to thank my fellow board members, volunteers
and colleagues in allied organizations for their guidance and advice during my year as
President.
This was our first year utilizing the calendar year for terms of office rather than the old
system of running terms from Festival to Festival. This allows us to have board terms
corresponding to the financial reporting calendar rather than picking it up half way
through.
Priorities the Board tackled in 2011
Working with the provincial regulators on the Broadly Experienced Foreign Architects
Program – a project ongoing throughout 2011 with a goal of completing the work
in 2012 – the RAIC has been facilitating discussions by regulators by administering
federal government funding for the work, and conducting roundtable meetings. The end
result will be a system that will evaluate experienced foreign trained architects, that
is supported by all the Canadian Architectural licensing bodies as an alternative path
to registration in Canada. The hard work completed by the BEFA task force has been
outstanding and through the pilot phase a number of candidates have already obtained
licences in a number of jurisdictions because of this work.
The Syllabus Renewal initiative continued throughout the year with clarification as to the
role of the profession in the alternative system of education that we at the RAIC have
guided for 40 years. With our partners at Athabasca University handling the academic
distance learning through the RAIC Centre for Architecture, we will be overseeing
the office experience and design studio portions of the program, as well as providing
ongoing input to the academic component delivered through the Centre. The last year
has seen our former executive director Jon Hobbs, FRAIC, coordinating renewal of the
design studio modules and supporting completion of a suite of technical courses pulled
together by Don Ardiel, FRAIC, our hard-working current president David Craddock,
FRAIC, keeping all the differing interests focused on the goal of renewal, and Jim McKee
and everyone at RAIC communicating, organizing, financing and striving to keep this

important initiative moving forward. Special thanks to the Syllabus design coordinator
and mentor community, the examiners, advisory committee members and student
representatives. And not to be forgotten the staff at Syllabus – Registrar Jeanné Fox,
Hon. MRAIC and Administrative Assistant September Stokes, must be recognized for
their dedication and commitment to the program’s long history. Without all of their hard
work, we wouldn’t have a program to renew.
Both these initiatives have been and will continue to be priorities for the Board.
As these initiatives have moved forward, we started looking at how we can increase
value for our members by making membership in Architecture Canada | RAIC even more
worthwhile. In this regard, our ongoing presentation of case study projects achieving or
exceeding the current energy-efficiency targets of the 2030 Challenge, our involvement
in document development through our practice committee and representatives on the
Canadian Construction Documents Committee (CCDC), which resulted in updated and
new contract documents, the advocacy of the profession at both the national and local
level, and lobbying for architecture and architects, are just a few examples of the work
the RAIC conducts on a regular basis. We also have been looking at more ways the
RAIC can provide and facilitate our members in their professional development and
continuing education. We are looking into interesting membership benefits and learning
new ideas from some of our colleagues around the world.
Architecture Canada | RAIC continues to work to get the idea that Architecture
matters to as many people and organizations as possible, to involve students, interns,
practitioners in the profession, to partner with our regulatory colleagues to help the
profession grow. With the work we are doing, we need the profession’s support, and that
support would be stronger if more architects chose to become members of Architecture
Canada | RAIC. So I ask members to talk to their colleagues, keep them informed of the
value of membership, and encourage them to join. Imagine how much louder our voice
would be if all the Architects in Canada were speaking together.
Thank you again for your support, and I wish everyone a successful year.

2 President’s Report | 2011 Annual Report

Architecture Canada | RAIC
Executive Director’s
Report
The year 2011 was eventful for Architecture Canada | RAIC on several fronts. We
implemented our new model for partnering with provincial associations to present our
annual Festival – and confirmed locations for not only the 2012 Festival in St. John’s,
but also 2013 (Halifax) and 2014 (Winnipeg), as well as initiating planning with senior
leadership of the American Institute of Architects to present our Festival at the time of
the AIA Convention planned for Toronto in 2017. In addition, we pursued discussions
through 2011 that culminated in the decision to partner with Interior Designers Canada
(IDC) and IIDEX to incorporate a dedicated Architecture Canada Expo as part of the
largest national design showcase in the country – IIDEX NeoCon.
In 2011, we completed the transition to a new member services portal based on opensource
technologies (Drupal and CiviCRM); it has not been without its challenges but
going forward this platform offers capabilities to provide more extensive and tailored
services to our members. While the Architecture Canada | RAIC membership trendline
has been upward for the past decade – by December 31 we had more than 4,500
members, compared with 2,500 in 2001. In 2011, the RAIC Board decided the time was
right to retain an external consultant to carry out an audit of our member service offer
and recommend refinements with a view to consolidating and building on that growth.
RAIC’s advocacy work remained central to its activities in 2011. This included taking part
in regular discussions on federal procurement discussions as part of the Federal/Industry
Real Property Advisory Council (FIRPAC), as well as providing input to a Public Works
and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) consultation with respect to its Alternative
Forms of Delivery model for property management services for a vast inventory of
federally owned buildings across the country.
In 2011, RAIC’s most visible public advocacy initiative was its launch of the fundraising
campaign in support of Canada’s representative at the 2012 Venice Biennale for
Architecture. The Venice Biennale is often referred to as the ‘Olympics of Architecture’ –
it is the most important international architectural competition in the world, one in which
more than 50 countries are represented and attended by more than 170,000 visitors –
including more than 5,000 journalists during the three-day vernissage that kicks off the
Biennale. Canada’s 2012 representative, Migrating Landscapes, conceived and curated
by three young architects and designers based in Winnipeg – Johanna Hurme, MRAIC,
Sasa Radulovic, MRAIC, and Jae-Sung Chon is uniquely Canadian in its exploration of

themes of cultural memory, landscape, and adaptation. It has been warmly embraced by
the profession as an opportunity to showcase the new generation of Canadian architects
on the international stage.
Practice Support remains a pillar of RAIC’s program. In 2011, RAIC was an active
founding member of the Institute for BIM in Canada (IBC), which in just one short year
of existence has produced an environmental scan of BIM-related technologies currently
in use, a survey providing a snapshot of the state of BIM implementation in Canada,
and acquired the status of Canadian Chapter of Building Smart International, ensuring
Canada will have a voice in the creation of international standards for the development
of BIM. Also in 2011, after several years’ hard work our representatives on the Canadian
Construction Documents Committee – CCDC – helped move to completion updated
versions of the Design-Build suite of documents (CCDC 14 and 15) – these were
released for final endorsement by constituent members of the Construction Industry
Consultative Committee (CICC) in early 2012.
Finally, Architecture Canada | RAIC continued to work to raise awareness of the
importance of integrating sustainable design approaches into the built environment. At
the 2011 Festival in Vancouver, Architecture 2030 founder Ed Mazria, Hon. FRAIC,
provided an inspiring update on the developments associated with this initiative – and of
the potential beneficial impact if the challenge is realized on a broad scale across North
America and the world. In 2011, RAIC began publishing the first in an initial series of
case studies of completed projects that meet or exceed – based on actual operational
performance data – current targets of the 2030 Challenge. RAIC’s 2030 Challenge
Advisor was also able to make presentations to several audiences – including federal
procurement decision-makers during the year. And with a view to reaching a broader
audience of public and private clients, we devoted RAIC’s Architecture magazine to
showcasing the achievements of the 2030 case study projects as well.
It is all in an effort to highlight the profession, to allied communities and to society at
large, that Architecture matters… today and, most certainly, as it impacts the future.

RAIC Gold Medal
The RAIC Gold Medal is awarded in recognition of significant contribution to Canadian
architecture, and is the highest honour the profession of architecture in Canada can
bestow. It recognizes an individual whose personal work has demonstrated exceptional
excellence in the design and practice of architecture; and/or, whose work related to
architecture, has demonstrated exceptional excellence in research or education.
Bing Thom, FRAIC, was the recipient of the 2011 Gold Medal. In bestowing the award,
the Gold Medal Selection Committee noted:
“The work of few practitioners fulfills the spirit and intent of the RAIC Gold Medal as Bing
Thom’s does. It is generally understood that the Gold Medal should recognize and honour a
life’s work: Work that is noteworthy, instructive, influential, and at its best extra-ordinary.
Mr. Thom’s work addresses all of these interests.
At the level of craft it is consistently pushing the boundaries of technique and use of
materials, generating a recurrent sense of substance and quality. Truly noteworthy work
in architecture must take us to a place beyond this, a place that is visceral, difficult to
define, yet obvious in its presence. Bing Thom’s work does this. It is good, and fulfilling
to experience. It can be inspirational. It leaves one with worthwhile memories. It has long
been worth honouring.”

Young Architect Award
This award is to recognize a young architect for excellence in design, leadership and/or
service to the profession. It is intended that this award will inspire other young architects
to become licensed and to strive for excellence in their work.
Taymoore Balbaa, MRAIC, was the first recipient of its Young Architect Award.
In choosing Taymoore Balbaa, the Jury stated that it recognized “his impressive
early achievements in the profession” and that he is an “exciting young architect with
exceptional potential.”
Architectural Firm Award
This award recognizes an architectural firm or practice that has consistently produced
distinguished architecture. The award recognizes the achievements of the firm for its
quality of architecture, its service to its clients, its innovations in practice, contributions
to architectural education and to professional institutions and associations and public
recognition.
Montgomery Sisam Architects Inc. was the recipient of the 2011 Architectural Firm
Award. In bestowing the award, the Selection Committee noted:
Ontario Mission of the Deaf
Tom Arban
“The folio put forward by Montgomery Sisam Architects described a practice that
demonstrated cumulative decades of depth, breadth, and richness in an architectural
practice. Their tendency to focus on work of social significance, their maintained support
for education and development of their employees over a long period of time, and their
consistent involvement of both staff and principals in community and professional affairs
describes a practice with a vision, purpose, and ethic. The resulting work recurrently
evidenced achievements that are competent, thoughtful, often delightful, and in many
cases addressing programs that were complex and technically challenging.”

Summer training course in Ferrara, Italy
For the first time, Architecture Canada | RAIC, in
partnership with the Department of Architecture
at the University of Ferrara, sponsored a six-day
course in Italy that examined historical applications,
current issues, emerging technological advances and
provided technical information on restoration as well
as renewable energy.
Practice Support
The Practice Support Committee continued to provide a frame of reference and
orientation with regards to the continuing revision work for various standard contract
documents and coordinated the review of new or revised CCDC documents.
The committee met to discuss issues arising from the ongoing work on the Canadian
Construction Documents Committee (CCDC) related to the upcoming Guide to
Prequalification as well as the CCDC Design-Build suite of documents as well as with
regards to ongoing discussions within the Federal Industry Real Property Advisory
Council (FIRPAC) forum.
The committee also examined the opportunity to undertake a review towards possible
updates or revisions to RAIC’s Canadian Standard Form of Contract for Architectural
Services – Document 6, emphasizing the value of seeking input from provincial
professional associations in the process.

Federal Government Procurement
Thanks to the generous contributions of time and expertise by Peter J. Kindree, FRAIC,
Deborah Farrow, MRAIC, John Hackett, FRAIC, and Board Liaison Allan Teramura,
MRAIC, Architecture Canada | RAIC maintained a strong voice at the Federal Industry
Real Property Advisory Council (FIRPAC) meetings. The Council this year was also
supported by François Hogue, MIRAC, who was added to Architecture Canada | RAIC’s
Practice Support team to offer expertise to the membership.
26 Report on RAIC Activities | 2011 Annual Report

Architecture Canada | RAIC
The RAIC Federal Government Procurement Council engages most Federal Government
departments that engage architectural services. This year’s meetings focused on AFD –
Alternate Forms of Delivery; Multiple Submissions by Professional Service Contractors;
Bidding Next Phase – by Professional Service Contractors and included ongoing
discussions on Government requirements for bilingual documents; streamlining Industrial
Security; the Claims Process and Resolution; and the Re-use of Design Documents.
During the year RAIC representatives – Peter J. Kindree, FRAIC, Deborah Farrow,
MRAIC, and Gerrie Doyle, MRAIC, participated in a national consultation by Public
Works and Government Services Canada concerning its Alternative Forms of Delivery
contracting framework. The group also provided a written response on how its Real
Property-1 program is administered and addressed a number of issues relating to how
architectural services are contracted under the current RP1 framework.
As a result of RAIC’s participation in FIRPAC, subsequent meetings with Defence
Construction Canada as well as SNC Lavalin O & M were arranged to discuss
procurement and contract issues in greater detail. Progress and understanding with
each of these client organizations is an ongoing process.
2030 Challenge
As part of Architecture Canada | RAIC’s commitment to the 2030 Challenge a website
was created highlighting the best energy-efficient commercial buildings that have been
constructed in Canada. Each month new projects were added and featured in the
Bulletin.
The 2030 Challenge calls for design activities that will significantly reduce the
greenhouse gas emissions of new and renovated Canadian buildings, and the Case
Studies website highlights the information and technology that supports the Challenge.

Advocacy Magazine Architecture
The focus of RAIC’s advocacy publication, Architecture: A magazine for public and
institutional administrators, continued to concentrate on highlighting 2030 Challenge
projects to members of both the RAIC and Canada Green Building Council members.
The Winter/Spring edition featured Stageline and St. Gabriel’s
Church as initial entries to the 2030 Challenge web site as it was
just being developed.
The focus of the Summer/Fall issue was education – highlighting
Simon Fraser University’s Arts and Social Sciences Complex,
École Lawrence Grassi Middle School in Canmore, and the
Joggins Fossil Centre. The issue was sent to that sector as
well as reaching the profession at large.
The goal of the advocacy magazine is for members to use them as a means of
educating clients and owners about the important role architects and architectural design
and quality plays in their sector – ensuring the message is heard that Architecture
matters …

Communications
Late in the year RAIC began harnessing revenues by adding advertising to the Bulletin
and the Services Portal.
This unique opportunity was quickly embraced in the Bulletin by Cloverdale Paint,
Firestone Building Products Canada, Hanson Brick, IMAGINit Technologies; and on the
Services Portal by Amvic Building Systems, Canada Green Building Council, Graphisoft
North America, Schluter Systems, and StonCor Canada.
The Bulletin – Electronic Newsletter
The Bulletin, distributed by email, continued to offer members news relevant to the
profession in short segments offering further information to the reader – presented with
a clean crisp design and colourful images.
The goal of the Bulletin is to foster a sense of community while keeping everyone
informed of news related to the profession, and RAIC’s efforts and activities.
Canadian Architect newsletter
The Architecture Canada | RAIC newsletter insert Update/En Bref
appeared quarterly in 2011 highlighting the activities of the RAIC to all
architects in Canada. Subscriptions to Canadian Architect are available
to RAIC members residing in Canada at no cost.
Website
The members section of the website was completely
revamped in 2011 with the introduction of a new
on-line Services Portal adding a modern and updated
Store and a dedicated Events Registration section.
29 Report on RAIC Activities | 2011 Annual Report

All Membership records were moved to the new system and members received an email
with new access usernames and passwords.
Using the Services Portal members continue to be able to change their Membership
information, purchase products at Member Discounts, and access exclusive third-party
discounts.
Electronic notices
Electronic notices were sent throughout the year as needed to members reminding them
of important events and deadlines.
Columns in Industry Journals
In an effort to spread the message about the profession across many audiences,
arrangements have been made which allow columns written by various members of the
Board of Directors to be inserted into several professional trade journals.
In 2011 Architecture Canada | RAIC added a fourth channel – a bi-monthly column
in the Canadian Journal of Green Building & Design along with a monthly column
in the Daily Commercial News/Journal of Commerce, and bi-monthly in Sustainable
Architecture & Building (SABMag) and AWARD Magazine. Copies of the columns are
highlighted each month in the electronic Bulletin.

30 Report on RAIC Activities | 2011 Annual Report

Architecture Canada | RAIC
Every Building has an Architect
T-shirts continue to be available to members and members are encouraged to let
everyone know Architecture matters …
Early in the year Melissa McAlister, MRAIC, noticed an
article in the Thunder Bay Chronicle Journal criticizing
a selection of buildings from an artistic perspective,
and failing to credit the architects who designed the
buildings featured. Her letter resulted in a printed
correction and helped the spread of the crucial message
that Every Building has an Architect.
Efforts like these by RAIC members at the local level
are critical to advancing the Every Building Has an Architect Campaign.
Membership
As of December 31, 2011, Architecture Canada | RAIC had 4,540 members. In 2011,
there were a total of 482 new members, more than the amount of new members in 2009
(421) and 2010 (399).
The RAIC offered free membership to all 2010/2011 graduates from an accredited
professional degree program in Architecture in Canada. By December 31, 2011, 54
graduates had responded to the offer, more than twice as many as the previous
year. RAIC also offered free student associate membership to students in a Master of
Architecture program – 94 students responded to the offer.

2011 Membership Directory
For the seventh year, Architecture Canada published an annual
membership directory through an arrangement with Naylor
publications. This agreement allows the Naylor sales team
to promote Architecture Canada and enables all costs to be
recovered. In return, Architecture Canada members receive a
printed annual directory.
External Relations
National Affairs
In 2011 RAIC continued to maintain close working relationships with its colleagues
the provincial/territorial regulators and the Canadian Architectural Certification Board
(CACB). Regular Roundtables with the provincial and territorial regulators continued to
discuss issues of common concern and to explore possibilities for joint action.
In 2011, the principal initiative on the National Affairs agenda was RAIC’s role as
financial administrator for $1.6 million in federal funding provided by Human Resources
and Skills Development Canada to develop and implement a framework for assessing
the competencies of Broadly Experienced Foreign Architects (BEFA). By shifting the
assessment to focus principally on competencies, the objective is to provide BEFA
candidates with a path to practice while ensuring Canadian standards are upheld.
Program development continued throughout 2011, with the objective of the program
being launched and delivered through the CACB in the final quarter of calendar 2012.
International Affairs
In 2011, RAIC was represented at the annual Convention of the American Institute
of Architects held in New Orleans in May by President Stuart Howard, FRAIC, and
Executive Director Jim McKee. Mr. Howard also represented RAIC at the annual
Convention of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects held in Melbourne, also in May.
32 Report on RAIC Activities | 2011 Annual Report

Architecture Canada | RAIC
The 24 th Congress of the International Union of Architects took place in Tokyo
September 25 – October 1. RAIC President Stuart Howard, FRAIC, headed a delegation
that included Past President Randy Dhar, PP/FRAIC, Second Vice President Paul
Frank, FRAIC, and Executive Director Jim McKee. Much of the discussions at the UIA
Congress focused on work it is carrying out to strengthen university programs and
internship programs in developing countries, but the
Congresses also serve as occasions to elect the UIA’s
Bureau and Council, as well as select the cities that
will host future Congresses. Canada’s Randy Dhar, PP/
FRAIC was acclaimed to the UIA Council as one of the
profession’s representatives from Region III (Americas),
joining Tom Vonier of the AIA, who was elected Vice-
Left to right: Stuart Howard, FRAIC,
Jonathan Fried, Randy Dhar, PP/FRAIC,
Paul Frank, FRAIC
President for the Region. With Durban previously
selected to host the 2014 Congress, Seoul Korea was
selected to present the Congress in 2017.
Venice Biennale in Architecture
The Venice Biennale in Architecture is the single most important and prestigious
international event in contemporary architecture; it is to architecture what the Olympics
are to sports. From late August 2012 to November 2012, more than 50 countries are
expected to bring their architectural finest to Venice to compete with each other for the
coveted Golden Lion Award for best national exhibition.
Building on the success of Canada as a serious
contender after attracting global attention in 2010 with
“Hylozoic Ground”, Migrating Landscapes by 5468796
Architecture and Jae-Sung Chon was chosen as
Canada’s official entry at the 2012 Venice Biennale in Architecture.
Migrating Landscapes examines how Canadians express their diverse cultural memories
in designs for contemporary housing. To do this, its young organizers, all born outside
of Canada, will design a ‘new landscape’ as an exhibition infrastructure and invite
other young Canadian architects and designers to respond to it with designs for
housing based on their cultural memories. These designs will be ‘settled’ into the ‘new
landscape’, and together form the exhibition at the Canada Pavilion in Venice.
33 Report on RAIC Activities | 2011 Annual Report

Architecture Canada | RAIC
By late in 2011 the project had held the first two of several Canadian exhibitions and
garnered strong attention from sponsors and participation by 119 entrants from across
Canada.
Architecture Canada | RAIC wishes to thank the Canada Council for the Arts (CCA)
for providing a special partnership grant enabling RAIC to retain a dedicated project
manager/fundraiser in support of Canada’s presence at the 2012 Biennale. By end
of 2011, funds raised were nearing the $350,000 target established for the project –
testimony to the widespread support Migrating Landscapes within – and beyond – the
profession.
A complete list of sponsors, donors and partners can be found at the end of this annual
