Actually it is. These abbreviations came from two-letter codes for weather stations way back in the 1920s or so; at the time our airfield was in Kitchener proper, and KF stood for Kitchener Field. Later it was moved across the river but retained its code, and the Canada-standard "Y" was added in front.
