Reply to @david: I submitted an e-mail from Nav Canada from which I got a reply today. They are looking into it.
I requested that they update the CFS so that they note the runway is unmarked. There is signage at the airport to indicate that it still is an active runway.
Is it me or does 05/23 NOT exist? I didn't see any runway numbers and where one would be, the pavement looks pretty beat up. The CFS says it's paved.. but I have my doubt's that is accurate.
Long runways in good condition, extremely easy to find, well positioned airport. Do not overfly the field - skydivers will drop on your head! Circuits are outwards, check the CFS. Do not miss the aviation history museum in a hangar right next to the main ramp. Friendly folks around and overall positive atmosphere - I enjoyed Dunnville, and would love to be back.
Dunnville is an ultralight friendly airport. There is an active jump school here also so don't overfly the field. See the canada flight supplement for info re : traffic patterns

The CFS will be updated to include a note in the "caution" section only if the airport operator requests it.
There is no requirement for registered aerodromes to have painted runway markings. Only certified aerodromes need to have them visible.

Reply to @bcrosby: what was the word on 05/23 when you visited, Blake? Is it still usable?

A great little gem of a museum. This airport has a great community around it that has brought a BCATP airfield back to life. Well worth a visit.
