This week, the Honourable David Zimmer, Ontario Minister of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation, together with the Honourable Carolyn Bennett, Minister of Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada, and the Algonquin Negotiation Representatives officially signed theAlgonquins of Ontario Agreement-in-Principle. This signing ceremony on Parliament Hill in Ottawa is of historical significance as a landmark event in our progress toward Ontario's first modern-day treaty. There is much work still to be done. The Ontario negotiation team will continue to actively work with the Municipal Focus Group that has been in place since 2010, consisting of senior upper tier staff members. We will also be actively engaged with individual municipalities where there are proposed Algonquin land selections. Crown lands conveyed to the Algonquins will be transferred in fee simple ownership and subject to municipal jurisdiction, including municipal planning, after title transfer, Ontario will continue to consult with local municipalities to determine the appropriate Official Plan designation and zoning to be applied to settlement land parcels, and public consultation processes will also be undertaken.

  • Making the Case on Parliament Hill a Warm Welcome for Our New Board
    Web version | June 2017 Making the case on Parliament Hill I was recently invited to Ottawa to be a witness at Parliament’s Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights, which is examining issues related to access to the justice system. I was asked to talk about legal aid in Canada and to provide observations on indigenous access to justice. In trying to figure out what to say in 10 minutes I realized how important it was to frame these important and complex issues in the bigger picture of what government chooses to support and why they should. I took the opportunity to reiterate the advice we once gave the BC Ministry of Justice, that our work to improve the justice system for people with low incomes serves to improve the justice system for everyone. I reminded the MPs on the committee that legal aid plans are uniquely positioned to offer advice on justice reform and access to justice because we are independent of government, and we see more facets the justice system than other justice institutions do. My overall message was that the federal government should be more generous, more deliberate and more strategic in how it funds legal aid. Always aware of how our family services are far below the national average, I made some particular suggestions for national benchmarks and referred to the recent proposal for national legal aid benchmarks developed by Canada’s legal aid plans in conjunction with the Canadian Bar Association. A warm welcome for our new board chair Larry Grant, Celeste Haldane and Carl Point LSS welcomed Celeste Haldane as its new board chair last month.

  • Approaches to Vexillological Research—Port Flags In
    APPROACHES TO VEXH.LOLOGICAL RESEARCH: PORT FLAGS IN AUSTRALIA AND CANADA A CASE STUDY ^ Kevin Harrington SYNOPSIS Flags for Port Authorities have followed in the heels of the movement towards more active government interest and involvement in the multifold activities of ports and harbours, a movement particularly pronounced in the past two decades, as technology and trade developments rapidly expanded. PORT FLAGS A STUDY OF DEVELOPMENTS IN AUSTRALIAN AND CANADIAN PORTS INTRODUCTION Vexillological research into the flags of ports, harbour commissions and port authorities poses a number of problems. First of all, one could ask the question why should such research be done at all. Secondly how does one gather the data, i.e. - where is the information? Thirdly, where does one stop, what are the dimensions or framework for the research? We have gathered the data by writing directly to port managers in both Australia and Canada. This paper will primarily describe the various flags and suggest some directions worthy of further consideration. FLAGS OF NEW SOUTH WALES Visits to the Maritime Services Board (MSB) of New South Wtdes followed our correspondence (See Appendix 1). Three port flags were shown and discussed in an interview with Marketing Manager Robert Worsley. The official MSB flag, made by Harry West of East Balmain, Sydney, is a British blue ensign defaced by the MSB badge. This badge comprises a red disc bearing a representation of a sailing vessel, the Sirius. Surrounding the disc is a lifebuoy alternately blue.and yellow, a symbol of maritime safety. A white ribbon with red backing where shown, bears in black lettering the words THE MARITIME SERVICES BOARD OF N.S.W.

Si does not occur naturally in its pure state but instead is found chiefly in mineral form as either silica (SiO2) or silicates. Silica Silica deposits occur, and are mined, in most and/or silicate minerals are a constituent of nearly every rock type in countries. Global silica output is estimated at Earth's crust. roughly 120 Mt to 150 Mt per year (Dumont 2006). The most familiar silica mineral is quartz. In commodity terms, silica About 5.9 Mt of ferrosilicon were produced also refers to geological deposits enriched in quartz and/or other silica worldwide in 2006. The major contributors were minerals. Silica resources include 1) poorly consolidated quartzose China, Russia, United States, Brazil and South sand and gravel, 2) quartz sand/pebbles in consolidated rock (e.g. Africa (U.S. Geological Survey [USGS] 2006). quartzose sandstone), 3) quartzite , and 4) quartz veins. Global production of silicon metal reportedly Uses approached 1.2 Mt in 2006, almost half of which came from China (USGS 2006).

  • Ministerial Staff: the Life and Times of Parliament’S Statutory Orphans
    MINISTERIAL STAFF: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF PARLIAMENT’S STATUTORY ORPHANS Liane E. Benoit Acknowledgements Much of the primary research in support of this paper was gathered through interviews with more than twenty former and current public servants, lobbyists, and ex-exempt staff. I am sincerely grateful to each of them for their time, their candour and their willingness to share with me the benefit of their experience and insights on this important subject. I would also like to acknowledge the generous assistance of Cathi Corbett,Chief Librarian at the Canada School of Public Service,without whose expertise my searching and sleuthing would have proven far more challenging. 145 146 VOLUME 1: PARLIAMENT,MINISTERS AND DEPUTY MINISTERS And lastly, my sincere thanks to C.E.S Franks, Professor Emeritus of the Department of Political Studies at Queen’s University, for his guidance and support throughout the development of this paper and his faith that, indeed, I would someday complete it. 1 Where to Start 1.1 Introduction Of the many footfalls heard echoing through Ottawa’s corridors of power, those that often hit hardest but bear the least scrutiny belong to an elite group of young, ambitious and politically loyal operatives hired to support and advise the Ministers of the Crown. Collectively known as “exempt staff,”1 recent investigations by the Public Accounts Committee and the Commission of Inquiry into the Sponsorship Program and Advertising Activities,hereafter referred to as the “Sponsorship Inquiry”, suggest that this group of ministerial advisors can, and often do, exert a substantial degree of influence on the development,and in some cases, administration, of public policy in Canada.
