There's no stepdown fix inside the FAF. The FAF is at an NDB 4.1 miles
from the runway (MAP). The FAF altitude is 1500' (MSL). AGL at the FAF is
not charted (JEPP).
They do have HIRL, ALS and PAPI. Can you get lower minimums with the
addition of lighting?
I'd be surprised, simply because you can descend to 287 ft HAT *without*
seeing the PAPI, approach lights, or runway edge lights.
AGL at the FAF is not charted in the Nav Canada CAP either, but it would be
roughly 1200ft (the terrain is very level in that direction, and the three
nearest towers on the VNC confirm that the ground elevation is around 300 ft
MSL).
All the best,
