This handbook tells you about services for Aboriginal people in cities across Ontario. The guide includes information about government services. This book can help you find people and groups and organizations that understand and accept Aboriginal ways and culture. Unfortunately, the number of urban Aboriginal organizations isn’t enough to deal with the growing demand. This guide is for you. If you have an idea or a suggestion to improve the guide, send it to: Public Safety Canada Aboriginal Corrections Policy Unit 340 Laurier Avenue West Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0P8 You may visit the Public Safety Canada Homepage at: http//www.ps.gc.ca 1 Tips for Finding Information Your local Friendship Centre is the best place to start, the people who work there will be able to help you or they will know someone who can. The Centre will also know about other Aboriginal organizations in the area. Government organizations are not always easy to deal with; however, if you are patient and persistent, they will help. If you run into voice messaging information systems, remember that once you have gone through the maze of pushing buttons for information, you will eventually be able to talk to someone. Try to make local calls or use 1-800 numbers where possible because you may be on hold for a long time. That can cost a lot of money. If you know what questions you need answered in advance, this will save you time in the long run. The people on the other end will know exactly what you want and you will not have to call back for more information. Some organizations, particularly Aboriginal housing organizations, have long waiting lists. If you want an apartment/house in urban Aboriginal housing, you should get your name on the list as soon as possible. Don’t give up. There are always people out there who are willing to help, they are just sometimes hard to find. Finding Out More The federal and provincial government have many services. This Guide does not list them all. If you want information about a federal government program or service that is not listed in this Guide, call Service Canada at 1-800-622-6232. 2 Essential Services Birth/Death/Marriage Certificate To get a copy of your Birth, Death, or Marriage certificate, contact the Ontario Office of the Registrar General. You must ask the Office of the Registrar General to send you an application form. The telephone number is 1-800-461-2156. It is a long distance call, but there is no charge. It is very difficult to get through by telephone. Luckily, there are other ways of getting an application form. You can go on line at www.mgs.gov.on.ca or www.serviceontario.ca to complete a birth certificate on line or you can print it out and mail your application. You can get an application form at a city hall or a town hall. Some Canada Employment Centres (HRDC Offices) have application forms. Call to find out. You can write to the Office of the Registrar General and ask for an application form. The address is: Office of the Registrar General Post Office Box 4600 189 Red River Road Thunder Bay, Ontario

  • Public Transit Operations Review – the Route Ahead Executive Summary October 2012
    City of Peterborough Peterborough Public Transit Operations Review – The Route Ahead Executive Summary October 2012 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Peterborough has a strong history of supporting public transit services for all members of the community. Over the past decade ridership has grown by 62 percent on conventional services and with a current mode share of 4.5 percent, the City is on target to achieve its goal of having 6 percent of all trips within Peterborough to be on public transit by 2021. The Dillon Consulting team was engaged by the City to conduct an operational review of current conventional and Handi-Van services and provide advice on strategies to improve efficiency, increase ridership and ensure that all residents and visitors have effective transit access to employment, school, shopping, services, recreation and cultural activities within the community. There are many positive aspects to the current transit services and in a comparison with a peer group of Ontario municipalities, the performance of Peterborough Transit ranks high. The revenue/cost (R/C) ratio is 49 percent, transit ridership per capita is 37.92 and the average number of boardings per revenue vehicle hour is 29.23. This suggests a system that is meeting financial performance targets and is effective in capturing a reasonable share of the travel market. Service innovations include the use of TransCab for areas of low demand, employment specials, and express services to post-secondary institutions. The City has developed an effective partnership with the Student Association at Trent University which has resulted in a strong base of transit customers and transit service levels which benefit the entire community.

    BUS HISTORY ASSOCIATION 2019 CONVENTION Ottawa ON and Gatineau QC – Wednesday, June 5th to Saturday, June 8th All photos by Kevin Nicol, unless otherwise indicated The Bus History Association (BHA) convention was held in Ottawa this year. It had been 16 years (2003) since the BHA held their convention there. As with the past 3 Canadian conventions (Montreal, Quebec City, Vancouver), Mario Seneviratne organized a fan trip on the day before the start of the convention. Société de transport de l’Outaouais (STO) is one of the few remaining transit systems in Canada that still operates high floor vehicles (not including cutaways). STO, along with Coast Mountain Bus Company (Orion V suburbans), Sarnia (1 Orion V) and Cold Lake (2 Classics as back up) are the only systems that still operate the venerable buses. Their days are clearly numbered though except possibly for Vancouver where they have a few years left. STO still operates MCI Classics that formerly operated in Calgary. Bus # 9136 was chosen for the charter which is ex-Calgary # 5106. The charter started at Terrasses de la Chaudière in Gatineau. BHA members had to take regular transit to get to the start location and most rode OC Transpo route 97 from the host hotel of Hilton Garden Inn and Suites – Ottawa Airport. Upon arriving at Mackenzie King bridge, we alighted route 97 and transferred to route 44 for the ride to Gatineau. People who arrived early were able to take many photos. OC Transpo services Terrasses and one of the new Nova LFS buses arrived during our time there.

UPDATE: COVID-19 PUBLICATION IMPACT The publication of this report has been delayed by three months due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. This report, and the majority of research included within it, was completed primarily between September 2019 and March 2020 – prior to the novel coronavirus pandemic affecting local economies and transit revenue across Canada. While efforts have been made to include relevant announcements by Canadian transit agencies since that time, specifically as they relate to electric buses, many investment decisions and funding programs related to municipal green infrastructure deployments may change this year as a result of the financial crisis unfolding in cities across the country.
