File under You Can't Make This Up. From the 2009-2010 Annual Report of the Intergovernmental Affairs Secretariat (pdf link):

Issue #1: 5 Wing Goose Bay

The Secretariat acts as lead provincial agency for matters related to defence; 5 Wing Goose Bay is a priority issue. Secretariat officials work closely with all provincial departments, federal officials in various departments, and the local community (e.g. the Town of Happy Valley–Goose Bay, the Goose Bay Citizen’s Coalition and other groups and organizations as appropriate) to advance the future viability of military presence and training.

Goal: By 2011, the Secretariat will have worked with the federal government, the community and other provincial departments and agencies to promote the military diversification and long-term operation of 5 Wing Goose Bay, including attracting foreign military flight and other military training.

Objective: By 2010, the Secretariat will have continued to work with the federal government, the community and provincial line departments and agencies to promote military diversification and long-term operation of 5 Wing Goose Bay including attracting foreign military flight training and other military training.

Measure: Continued to work with the federal government, the community and provincial line departments and agencies to promote military diversification and long-term operation of 5 Wing Goose Bay including attracting foreign military flight training and other military training.

And then iGas says it has worked with the federal government, the community and other provincial departments and agencies to promote the military diversification and long-term operation of 5 Wing Goose Bay, including attracting foreign military flight and other military training.

Whatever that means. Not that it matters. Mission accomplished. Don't be so negative.
