aimed to be burst in the air

III Sources of Basic Information
(a) Population
Information on the daytime distribution of population
was obtained from the Civil Defence Director of the City of
Montreal. Information on the nighttime distribution of population is based on a redistribution of the 1951 census returns
in greater detail to show the population of individual city
blocks. This is considered for the purpose of this study a
sufficiently good approximation to the nighttime distribution
of population.

Militar y Establishments
The military establishments important to the
national war effort were chosen by the Joint Planning
Committee. The Establishment in the Montreal area is
listed in Appendix "A".

(c)

Vital Points
Information on other Vital Points was taken from
the 1953 List of Vital Points j which is the 'vJokf of the
Interdepartmental Committee on Vital Points. The list
for the Montreal area is given in Appendix WA".

(d) Scientific Data
Basic data on the effects of atomic bomb explosions
on people and structures was prepared by the Defence Research
Board (Scientific Adviser to the Civil Defence Co-ordinator).
IV Factors Considered in Selecting Aiming Points for Study
The effects of an attack on a city vary widely with
the location of the bomb burst. As it is not considered practicable to study all possible points of burst, a series of
Aiming Points have been selected which are calculated to give
the maximvim effect on population and on different groupings
of Vital Points.
The effects of an attack vary widely with the energy
released by the bomb. As it is not possible to estimate the
energy level of the bomb most likely to be used, separate
estimates were made for a bomb with the lowest probable energy
and the highest probable energy level.
The effects on people also vary widely with circumstances of warning and rescue. A series of estimates were
therefore made for different conditions of warning and rescue.
The estimates made for conditions WITH RESCUE are for ideal
rescue conditions with organized and trained rescue teams, in
temperate climates and when the atomic attack is unsupported
by other weapons. In spite of rescue efforts casualties
would tend towards those given for NO RESCUE under severe
winter conditions, or if Chemical Warfare attack were combined
with atomic attack or if the spread of fire were extensive.
Conditions of visibility would also alter the effect
of an attack. Poor visibility would reduce the extent of
fire and the number of radiation casualties and would have some
effect on the chances of pinpointing the target from the air.
All calculations are based on an average clear day over a
city with a visibility of about six miles.
For the city of Montreal Aiming Points were chosen
to give the maximum effect on the daytime and on the nighttime
distribution of population. A total of nine other Aiming
Points were also chosen to give the maximum effect on different groupings of Vital Points.

Results of the Study of the City of Montreal
A daytime attack on this city by a 20 Kiloton bomb
could result in casualties among 25-30$ of the population
depending on conditions of warning and rescue; and 35-60$
if a 100 Kiloton bomb were used; and would cause some damage to Vital Points. A daytime attack on the various
groupings of Vital Points by a 20 Kiloton bomb would result in casualties among /p~20fo of the population depending on conditions of warning and rescue and on the location
of the Aiming Point being considered; and cause considerable
damage to the particular grouping of Vital points. An
attack by a 100 Kiloton bomb would result in casualties
among /p-35fo Of the population^ and cause more widespread
destruction to Vital Points;
A nighttime attack on this city by a 20 Kiloton bomb
could result in casualties among 15-30$ of the population
depending on conditions of warning and rescue; and 30-50$
if a 100 Kiloton bomb were used; and would cause some damage to Vital Points. A nighttime attack on the various
groupings of Vital Points would result in casualties among
J/5-15$ of the population depending on conditions of warning
and rescue, and on the location of the Aiming Point being
considered; and cause damage to the particular grouping
of Vital Points. An attack by a 100 Kiloton bomb would
result in casualties among ^5-30$ of the population, and
cause more widespread destruction to Vital Points.
(a) Effects on Population
The effect of an attack on the daytime and nighttime
population is given in Tables I and II for each Aiming Point
and for different conditions of warning and rescue.
(b) Effects on Vital Points
A summary of the effect on Vital Points is given in
Table I H for each Aiming Point. The extent of damage to
Vital Points and the effect on their various functions is
also described below for each of the Aiming Points. The
relative importance of each Vital Point to the Canadian U.S. war effort is indicated by the category (AA, A, B or C ) ,
which is given for each Vital Point in Appendix "AM. A
Definition of each of the categories is also given in
Appendix MA".

- 38 (d) Effects On Morale
It is expected that the effects on morale in large
centres of population in Canada, and at least the northern
parts of the United States, would be much the same whichever
city is attacked by an atomic bomb. The effect will probably
be somewh'.t prooortionate to the size of the casualties inflicted by individual bombs and by the number of cities attacked.
Air Navigation Aspects of an Attack
With the equipment at present available to the
Russian Long Range Air Force j Montreal -would be an easj4
target to locate on either a high or low level attack Under
any weather conditions for a well trained navigator not
familiar with the area.
Accuracy in identifying specific Aiming Points
is a more critical aspect. However the Vital Points are
distributed over much of the city, and an atomic explosion
over many parts of the built up area would cause serious
damage to both Vital Points and population, though of a
lesser magnitude than described by this report.

The categories determined by the Interdepartmental
Committee on Vital Points are designed for sabotage studies.
They have been adapted for the present study by raising those
points which are important to the Joint Canadian U.S. war
effort from Category "A" to a superior Category "AA", and by
restating the significance of the categories.
The categories used are as fbllowsi
Category "AA"
Individual planta or buildings of sufficient importance to the North American war effort to be considered possible
atomic bomb targets, irrespective of any effects of an A-bomb
attack on the target on other Vital Points. Additional effects
will, however, play a part in determining the relative impoiv
tance of Category "AA" targets and they have, therefore, been
studied and reported.
Category w A n
Individual plants or buildings not of sufficient
importance to the North American war effort to be considered
A-bomb targets by themselves, but which may become A-bomb
targets if the other effects of the explosion of a bomb over
the target would produce a sufficient cumulative effect on
population and other Vital Points.
Category "B"
Important points to be considered in conjunction
with attacks on Category "AA" targets.
Category "C"
Minor points to be considered in conjunction with
attacks on Category "AA" and Category "A" targets.
