Article • Issue 4 The Canadian Reader 3

Drones are not yet making regular deliveries

in Canada. But it may not be long now.

In August, a drone made a test run. It travelled

from Vancouver Island to nearby Salt Spring

Island – a six-kilometre fl ight. It fl ew at

50 kilometres per hour, 75 metres above the

ground. Th e drone carried emergency medical

supplies. It arrived eleven minutes later.

Meanwhile, Edmonton’s airport is

preparing for drone deliveries. It is

adding drone take-off and landing zones.

Th e drones will fl y to places in western

and northern Canada. Th ey should be

cleared for take-off by early next year.

What is a drone?A drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle.

Drones are already quite common. For

instance, people use them to take aerial photos

and videos. Or they fl y them as a hobby.

Drones can also be used to make deliveries.

Th at’s especially handy for places that

are diffi cult to get to by vehicle. Remote

hospitals or mining camps, for example.

Drones can be small or large. Small ones

carry up to fi ve kilograms of cargo. Large

drones could transport machinery.

An operator controls the drones remotely.

Th ey contain cameras and sensors. Th e

Drone Delivery – Coming Right Up!

What’s that buzzing sound? It sounds like a swarm of

bees. It’s getting closer! Aha – it’s a drone coming in for

a landing. It’s making a delivery. Right on schedule!



drones can adjust their route depending

on the weather. Th ey can detect obstacles

such as electrical wires or helicopters.

Th ey can alert nearby pilots that

there’s a drone in their airspace.

New technology, new rules Drone technology is improving all the time.

Companies are eager to start using them for

deliveries. London Drugs, for instance, wants

to deliver prescription medications by drone.

In other parts of the world, drones are already

hard at work. In Africa, they transport

vaccines, drugs, and blood to rural hospitals.

In Iceland, they deliver take-out food to

places that are hard to get to by car.

So what’s the hold up in Canada?

Government regulators. Th ey need to be

sure drones are safe. Th ey don’t want the

machines falling out of the sky. Th ey don’t

want collisions with other aircraft .

Current regulations say that a drone must be

within sight of its operator at all times. Th at’s

not possible for a drone delivery service. So

regulators need to fi gure out new rules.

Experts say we also need an air traffi c control

system for drones. It would alert drones

to other drones fl ying nearby. Th ey might

need to adjust their fl ight paths to avoid

collisions. Th e more drones there are in an

area, the more important that will be.

So Canada is not quite ready for drone

deliveries. It’s probably coming, though.

Some day, your package might not be

delivered to your door by a delivery truck.

It might be delivered by a drone!

For what reasons are you in favour

of drone deliveries? For what

reasons are you against them?

Edmonton airport is patrolled by robirds. Robirds are drones painted to look like falcons, with flapping wings.

They scare other birds away from planes' flightpaths.

Before Reading: Facilitate a Th ink-Pair-Share discussion, asking students to talk about drones (e.g., What do they

know about them? How they are used?). If students have drones at home, you may wish to ask them

to bring their drones to school for a show n’ tell.

Read the title of the article aloud and invite students to predict what the article is about.

During Reading: Ask students to underline or highlight important facts about drones and drone delivery as they

read.

After Reading: Distribute to each student, or pair of students, a copy of Th e Pros and Cons of Drones (p. 27).

Direct them to use the article to record the advantages of using drones in the Pros column and the

disadvantages of using them in the Cons column.

When fi nished, invite students to brainstorm other potential uses for drones. Or, come up

with solutions to make drones safer. Allow them to write or sketch their ideas at the bottom of

their charts.

Criteria for Assessment: A creative solution is feasible (likely to work), unique (diff erent than other

ideas), and practical (solves a problem or brings about a positive change).

Extensions: Option 1: Design a drone safety poster

To learn more about the Canadian government’s rules on drone safety, direct students to the link

in Internet Connections. Ask them to use the information to design an informative poster for

kids outlining the basic rules for fl ying personal drones. As a class, learn more about poster design

before students create their own. Th e following online articles have helpful tips and examples:

• 10 Tips for Perfect Poster Design: https://designshack.net/articles/inspiration/10-tips-for-

perfect-poster-design/;

• 25 ways to design an awesome poster and create buzz for your next event: https://www.canva.

com/learn/25-ways-to-design-an-awesome-poster-and-create-a-buzz-for-your-next-event/

Microsoft Word and Canva have poster templates students can use to create their posters.

Option 2: Learn more about the history of drones

Students may be interested in learning about the history of drones. Th ere are several links listed

in Internet Connections. Invite them to record how drone technology has evolved over time by

focusing on features such as design and purpose. Have them speculate about the next evolution of

drones and create a blueprint.

– City’s Heart Wounded by Flames

On April 15, Notre-Dame de

Paris caught fi re.

Th is medieval cathedral is

known throughout the world. It

was immortalized in the Victor

Hugo novel Th e Hunchback of Notre-Dame.

Horrifying sceneAn alarm rang at the cathedral

at 6:20 pm, but no fi re was

found. It sounded again

at 6:43 pm. Th is time, fi re

was discovered on the roof.

Worshippers attending the

evening mass were quickly

evacuated, and 400 fi refi ghters

raced in to battle the blaze.

Despite their eff orts, however,

the fl ames quickly burst through

the roof. Th ey engulfed the

spire, which collapsed. Shortly

aft er, the roof fell in, too.

A close callParisians and tourists watched

in shock as the famous landmark

burned. It took 12 hours to put

out the blaze.

Th e damage was severe. Two-

thirds of the 100-metre-long

wooden roof was destroyed. But

the façade, the two 69-metre bell

towers, and the main structure

remained. Th e cathedral’s

precious stained-glass rose

windows, though damaged, were

not destroyed.

Notre-Dame’s organ, one of the

world’s biggest and most famous,

also remained intact aft er the

fi re. Th e impressive instrument

dates to the 1730s and boasts an

estimated 8000 pipes.

Emergency workers also

managed to rescue many

valuable works of art and

religious items from the fi re.

Among them? Th e crown

Human rights groups around

the world report that China has

imprisoned up to one million

Uighurs living in China’s

Xinjiang region. Satellite images

and other evidence show a

growing number of detention

centres in Xinjiang, including at

least 44 high-security buildings.

Fake newsTh e Chinese government,

however, denies this accusation.

It is “completely untrue,” a senior

Chinese offi cial told the UN

last August. Th e centres have

been set up to teach lessons on

Chinese history, language, and

culture. Th ey off er ‘nutritious,

free diets’. Th e buildings are also

used as job retraining centres,

another offi cial explained.

However, China does admit to

cracking down on ‘extremist

activity’ among Uighur Muslims

in Xinjiang. It claims that

Islamic militants and separatists

are plotting attacks and stirring

up tension between Uighurs and

Han Chinese.

– Terrorists or Victims?

China has the largest population in the world – 1.4 billion. Some 91.5

percent are Han Chinese; 8.5 percent are minorities.

Xinjiang is a territory in northwest China. It became part of China

in 1949. In theory the region is autonomous. In practice, the Chinese

government controls it.

Th e population of Xinjiang is 22 million. About 11 million are Uighur

Muslims who speak a language similar to Turkish.

Xinjiang’s traditional economy is based on agriculture and trade. But

the region is rich in oil and other resources, and the economy has been

developing. Th at’s prompted many Han Chinese from China’s eastern

areas to move to Xinjiang. Han Chinese now make up 40 percent of the

territory’s population. Many local Uighurs resent them because they

are perceived to get the best jobs.

Uighur communities also exist in neighbouring countries, such as

Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan. Th ese countries used to be

part of the Soviet Union. But they gained independence in the 1990s,

when the Soviet Union collapsed. Th at inspired some Xinjiang Uighurs

to start a separatist movement. However, China’s harsh response to

these activities forced separatists underground.
