Friday, March 3, 2017 Friday, April 7, 2017 Friday, May 5, 2017

At the time of the call, we encourage the exchange of some basic information so that we may determine if it is something we deal with or if a referral to some other service or agency would be more appropriate.

For immediate release:

Energy Costs Continue to be a Concern Across the North

January 17, 2017 – Kapuskasing, ON - The Federation of Northern Ontario Municipalities (FONOM) continues to be concerned about the impacts of energy costs on the Northern Ontario economy. The issue was heavily discussed at the recent meeting of the Board of Directors’ on January 12, 2017 in North Bay.

Whether it be high and volatile fuel prices, the soaring costs on electricity bills or increased natural gas bills as a result of the cap and trade program that took effect on January 1, 2017, energy costs continue to be one of the most pressing issues to municipalities. FONOM currently receives more municipal resolutions with respect to energy than any other issue.

“We were hearing about energy costs from industry and businesses struggling to remain competitive, then we were hearing about the impacts on costs of living to residents and now we are hearing it from municipalities gravely concerned with escalating energy costs to operate municipal facilities,” said Mayor Alan Spacek of Kapuskasing and President of FONOM.

While the province announced various measures to address the energy crisis, Ontarians continue to see a rise in costs with the implementation of the cap and trade program. “We will continue to press the provincial government and voice the concerns of municipalities and Northerners,” stated Spacek.

Mayors/Reeves Constituent Municipalities within the Sudbury & District Health Unit Catchment Area

Dear Mayor/Reeve:

Re: Anti-Contraband Tobacco Campaign

In late 2016, public health units received information about the tobacco industry’s 2012 anti-contraband campaign in Ontario and Quebec. The information made clear that, in addition to contraband reduction, the campaign objectives included prevention of further tobacco excise tax increases and blocking of additional tobacco regulation.

About 40-50 Ontario municipalities supported the campaign without being fully aware of the background and context. Front groups continue to lobby the Provincial Government against tobacco taxes and other regulations.

At its meeting on Thursday January 19, 2017, the Sudbury & District Board of Health carried the following resolution #03-17:

WHEREAS the Sudbury & District Board of Health has reviewed information indicating that recent anti-tobacco contraband campaigns from the National Coalition Against Contraband Tobacco and the Ontario Convenience Store Association were supported by the tobacco industry with the intention of blocking tobacco excise tax increases and regulation of tobacco products generally; and

WHEREAS Ontario municipalities including the City of have endorsed such campaigns without being informed of tobacco industry support; and

WHEREAS municipalities within the SDHU service area are longstanding advocates for measures to protect the public from exposure to environmental tobacco smoke;

Page 73 of 133 /Reeves January 25, 2017 Page 2

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT the Sudbury & District Board of Health advise area municipalities of this information and urge municipalities to not endorse tobacco industry supported campaigns; and

THAT the Sudbury & District Board of Health request municipalities to call on the Ontario Ministry of Finance to raise tobacco excise taxes and enhance enforcement activities designed to reduce the presence of contraband tobacco in Ontario communities; and

FURTHERMORE THAT this resolution be shared with municipal councils, local MPPs, the Ontario Ministry of Finance, the Association of Local Public Health Agencies, Ontario public health units, and the Ontario Campaign for Action on Tobacco.

Local municipalities have supported various tobacco control measures in the past, including smoke free legislation, the protection of the public from second-hand smoke and the protection of our youth from tobacco industry products. Thanks to efforts like these, we have seen smoking rates decline and exposure to second-hand smoke in both indoor and many outdoor places greatly reduced. There remains much work to be done. Smoking is the number one cause of preventable deaths in Ontario and Canada and ongoing vigilance and action are required to reduce this still staggering statistic.

Sincerely,

Penny Sutcliffe, MD, MHSc, FRCPC Medical Officer of Health and Chief Executive Officer cc: The Honourable Charles Sousa, Minister of Finance Ms. France Gélinas, MPP, Nickel Belt Mr. Michael Mantha, MPP, Algoma-Manitoulin Mr. Glenn Thibeault, MPP, Sudbury Dr. David Williams, Chief Medical Officer of Health Ms. Linda Stewart, Executive Director, Association of Local Public Health Agencies Ontario Boards of Health Mr. Michael Perley, Director, Ontario Campaign for Action on Tobacco

The United Way is also prepared to work with each of our member municipalities to capture your front line service data including services relating to permits, building, bylaws and establish a local business directory. Therefore, your citizens can utilize a one stop shop very similar to a 311 model of service delivery. The one unique lasting feature is that over the course of a year or two the United Way will actually be able to target and highlight areas in need either in social services or in economic activity. In addition, please keep in mind that as they collectively promote and utilize the 211 system this could possibly alleviate the pressure on the 911 system as the public becomes aware of which number to call for the right reasons. Over the next few months, through this proposal the Untied Way is prepared to begin advertising and networking with likeminded position partners. This includes many major businesses that they are affiliated with, such as the OPP, Domtar, local banks, social service agencies, and many more. They also see physical advertising as well taking an integral part of this proposal. This would be through key message boards on select highways throughout your catchment area. The United Way is also prepared to invest dollars and staff time on social media, print advertising throughout this campaign. Please keep in mind that this 211 service model is at a zero cost to all individuals who engage in the system. The United Way�s commitment to your organization is that they use this offering as a pilot project over one or two years so they can measure the savings and service elements making life for all involved a little bit better in the long run. There is no one time or ongoing costs to member municipalities who choose to engage in the use of the 211 Service. I would strongly encourage all member municipalities to contact Michael Cullen, Executive Director, United Way Sudbury and Nipissing Districts at 705-560-3330 or by email at [email protected].

Attention: Joanne (Barbe) MacNeil Acting Clerk/Finance Clerk Attention: Mr. Andrew Somers Deputy-Treasurer Members of Council:

Subject: An upset taxpayer The day I received my tax bill was the day my blood pressure went up! I noticed I had a “past due” amount on my tax bill! I immediately called the municipal office and talked with Andrew. I asked him how come I did not receive a Notice of Arrears before this!(taxes were due last October) I think Andrew explained that he was just one person. I also called the Caisse Populaire and asked if perhaps they forgot to put my payment through! This was not the case. I explained that when I was Tax Collector, with the direction of the CAO/Clerk&Treasurer, I made sure Tax Notices were sent out on the first of every month once the due date was passed. I also mailed out “registered letters” to those who were seriously in arrears. The delinquent taxpayer would call my office, and we would set up an appointment for them to meet with the CAO to make payment arrangements. Collection of taxes is so very important! How else can council operate if you are not collecting your taxes????? If penalties and interest were to be written off, I would prepare a resolution of council. A list of amounts to be written off was also attached to the resolution.

Page 79 of 133

CONCLUSION: I have attended very few meetings of council but from what I observed I got the impression that the municipal staff do not have enough time to do their jobs! There are too many demands/requests from members of council! You all want so many REPORTS from your staff! If council want Reports from staff, they should go to the CAO and from there, the CAO will delegate to his/her staff if he or she feels that the staff has the time outside of his/her regular duties to prepare the report in question. They do have “priorities”. I didn’t get a Notice of Tax Arrears and I blame council for that!

Thank you for listening and giving me the opportunity to address council!

The reminder of by-law 2011-26 remains in effect including schedule B 1.2.0 (see attached) and makes reference to Per Diem as being in addition to remuneration.

As a result, Per Diem was not being interpreted by staff as remuneration of Council in 2015 for the purposes of T4 Calculations.

To provide further clarification to this and future Councils, it is proposed that Council consider the following definition:

“Remuneration of Council is deemed too include both the remuneration in Appendix “A” to By-law Number 2014-08 and the Per Diem described as B1.2.0 in schedule “B” to By-law Number 2012-21”

Recommendation: That Council approves draft by-law 2017-03.(attached)

Prepared by: David King, Interim CAO

Meeting Date: Report Date: February 15, 2017 February 7, 2017 Decision Requested: Priority: Yes Medium Direction Only: Type of Meeting:

Subject: Committee of the Whole Staff Reports

Background: In accordance with the Municipality of St. Charles procedural by- law 2014-4 time is allocated on the agenda of Committee of the Whole (COW) meetings for Council to review and discuss standing committee reports prepared by staff from each of the seven Committees of Council and 5 municipal service providers (SDHU, SEPB, MS- DSB, OPP and SEMA).

At the January 11, 2017, COW meeting, Council requested staff to examine the need and frequency of reporting with the intent of reducing staff time involved in the preparation of committee reports.

The following are the committees of Council which staff report on: 1. Environmental Services 2. Finance 3. General Government 4. Health 5. Parks and Recreation 6. Planning and Development 7. Protection to Persons and Property 8. Transportation Services Committee

Analysis:

Staff time invested: The Municipality of St. Charles holds 12 COW meetings each year. Four days in advance of each meeting, staff reports are prepared, reviewed and published on the municipal website. It is estimated that at least one hour of staff time goes into the preparation of the staff report and the Interim CAO spends a minimum of .50 hours reviewing and approving each report prior to each COW meeting. (7 monthly reports x 1.0hrs per report + .50 hrs per report review and publishing)

1

Page 96 of 133

Based on this, an estimated 10.5 hrs of combined staff time per meeting goes into producing these reports each month. Over the course of a year the amount of time spent to produce 84 reports is 126 hrs or 18 days. * (the above does not include the amount of Council time spent reviewing and discussing the content of each report)

Report content: Based on observations over the past 5 months the content of the monthly reports prepared for Council is varied, sometimes repetitive and lacks content of relevance to Council. It is thought by reducing the frequency of reporting and identifying those key items that Council would like staff to report on, the COW meetings could be more efficient and effective.

Options for Council’s consideration:

1. Stat quo. Continue with monthly committee reports. Pros: Council continues to receive reports monthly Cons: Staff time required to generate and review reports remains the same. No staff or Council time savings achieved.

2. Move to quarterly reporting for all internal staff reports Pros: Reduces the number of staff reports from 84 to 28 and reduces staff time to produce the reports from 126 hrs per year to 42 hours per year or 6 days. Cons: Council only receives updates quarterly instead of monthly.

3. Move to reporting based on the following hybrid schedule:  Environmental Services: o Quarterly, Public Works Report or as requested by Chair  Finance: o Quarterly Finance Activity Report o Other reports as requested by Chair  General Government o As requested by Chair  Health o Monthly review of SDHU agenda and minutes o Other reports as requested by Chair  Parks and Recreation o Quarterly, or as requested by Chair  Planning and Development o Quarterly EDO Reports or as requested by Chair  Protection to Persons and Property o Fire Department - Quarterly o Building Control – Twice Annually o Canine Control - Twice Annually

Page 97 of 133 o Monthly review of OPP reports  Manitoulin-Sudbury District Services Board o Monthly review of agenda and minutes  Transportation Services Committee o Quarterly Public works report or as requested by Chair  Public Library Board o Monthly review of agenda and minutes  Sudbury East Planning Board o Monthly review of agenda and minutes  Sudbury East Municipal Association- Quarterly

Pros: Reduces the number of staff reports per year from 84 to 24 and reduces staff time to produce the reports from 126 hrs per year to 36 hours per year or 5.1 days. Cons: Council only receives updates quarterly instead of monthly and reports from Building and Canine control as reduced to twice a year.

Recommendation: That Council approve option #3 by resolution to produce Committee of the Whole Staff Reports.

Report Title: Elections Act Amendments - Ranked Ballots

Background: The purpose of this report is to provide an overview of changes to the Municipal Elections Act introduced through Bill 181 – The Municipal Modernization Act.

On June 9, 2016, Bill 181, Municipal Elections Modernization Act, 2016, received Royal Assent, making significant changes affecting the 2018 Municipal Election.

Analysis: Changes to the Municipal Elections Act are as follows:

Election Calendar and Timelines:

Note: Election Day is October 22, 2018.

Ranked Ballot Voting: The most extensive change to the 2018 Municipal election process is the added option of a ranked ballot election. Traditionally, elections in Ontario have been run using the “first past the post” system, whereby the candidate receiving the highest number of votes is elected. For ranked ballot voting, in a ward single member election, instead of voting for a single candidate, you rank the list of candidates in order of your preference (first choice, second choice, third choice, etc.). The first place votes are totaled and if a candidate receives 50% or more of the votes, they are declared the winner. However, if no candidate receives more than 50% of the first place votes, the contender with the fewest votes is dropped from the ballot and his or her supporters’ second choices are counted and added to vote totals for the applicable remaining candidates. This process continues until one candidate emerges with a majority. This helps to ensure that the winning candidate(s) receive support from a majority of voters more often.

To implement a ranked ballot election, the following would apply in addition to passing the required by-law :  Ranked ballots would be required to be used to elect all of the members of Council.  The by-law may specify the maximum number of rankings that an elector may make and may provide a different number of maximum rankings for each office.  If the by-law does not specify the maximum number of rankings, the default maximum is three (3).  If ranked ballots are authorized for a regular election, ranked ballots must also be used in any by-elections that are held to fill council vacancies during the council term.  Before passing a by-law, the Council of a lower tier municipality must hold at least one (1) open house to provide the public with information about how elections would be conducted, including a detailed description of vote counting; the estimated costs of conducting the election; any voting and

- 2 -

Page 100 of 133 vote-counting equipment that is being considered for use in the election; and any alternative voting method being considered for use in the election.  A municipality must also hold a public meeting to allow the public to speak to Council about the proposed by-law. The public meeting must be held at least 15 days after the open house is held. Notice of both the open house and public meeting must be issued 30 days prior to each event. The by- law must be passed no later than May 1 in the year before the year of the election (e.g. May 1, 2017 for the 2018 election).

A considerable amount of time and election funding would have to be dedicated to public education and resources to inform voters about this new system, as ranked balloting could lead to public confusion and increase the number of spoiled ballots in the election. It could also affect the amount of time needed to prepare and test the voting system in advance of the election. A ranked ballot would look different than a composite ballot and may require a voter to use multiple ballots. In order to be transparent with voting results, the Clerk would have to report more detailed information in addition to the number of ballots used (declined/rejected ballots/first round results and subsequent rounds/exhausted ballots, etc.). The requirement for this additional detail could cause time delays in the reporting of elections results.

Nomination Period and Process The nomination period has been reduced from 37 weeks to 13 weeks, with the opening of nominations occurring on May 1, 2018 and ending on the 4th Friday in July (July 27, 2018). Candidates will be required to obtain 25 endorsement signatures from eligible electors, with the following stipulations:  The 25 endorsement signatures must be provided at the time a candidate files his/her nomination paper.  A person providing an endorsement must be eligible to vote for the office on the day that the person endorses the nomination.  Individuals will be permitted to endorse more than one nominee. Endorsements will be in the form of a prescribed declaration (not defined yet);  The nominee may file for a different office on the same council (withdrawing previous nomination) without pursuing further endorsement.

The Act has also been amended to clearly indicate that a candidate is eligible to be nominated for an office in any ward of the municipality – and not just the ward in which they reside. While this is not a change, given the number of inquiries the Ministry had received about this matter, the Act was amended to clarify that a candidate may run in a ward in which they do not live.

Page 101 of 133 Campaign Finance

 Corporations and trade unions are no longer eligible to contribute to municipal election campaigns;  Candidates will be required to inform contributors of contribution limits;  After the 2018 Election, campaign deficits will not be carried forward from previous campaign;  A candidate will not have to open a bank account if they do not raise or spend money;  A candidate may now resubmit a financial statement to correct an error up until the filing deadline;  Clerk to release report naming candidates in default;  Nomination fee now refunded only if Financial Statement is filed on time’  30 day “grace period” for filing a Financial Statement and $500 late filing fee (no refund of Nomination Fee)

Third Party Advertising

 A third party advertisement is a message in any medium (billboard, newspaper, radio, etc.) that supports or opposes a candidate OR a “yes” or “no” vote on a question on the ballot. Third party advertising does not include issues-based advertising so groups that do public outreach can continue their issue-based advocacy work throughout the municipal election period.  Advertising that does not cost money to post or broadcast, such as comments made on social media, will not be considered to be third party advertising.  Individuals, corporations and unions can register as third party advertisers and make contributions to third party advertisers. Third party advertisers will need to register with the municipality where they want to advertise. If they want to advertise in more than none municipality, they have to register in each municipality.  Registration allows a third party advertiser to promote or oppose any candidate that the electors in the municipality can vote for (local council, school board trustee positions and regional or county council offices).  Third party advertising must be done independently of candidates who are not able to direct a third party advertiser. Candidates are not able to register as third party advertiser.  Rules for registration of third party advertisers, handling contributions, spending and contribution limits and financial reporting are similar to those for candidates. Corporations and trade unions will be permitted to make contributions to third party advertisers, but will not be permitted to make contributions to candidates.

Page 102 of 133 Clerk’s Authority

Changes to Municipal Election Act will provide greater administrative discretion and independence to the Clerk. The following matters, some of which previously required Council approval, will now be entirely under the discretion of the Clerk.

 Establish advance voting dates, locations and hours (by-law required in the past);  Management of the voters list, including removal of deceased persons, additions of new electors and amendments to existing electors, as well as, the method by which additions, amendments and deletions are completed;  Determine whether electronic filing of financial statements will be permitted and any conditions or lists associated;  Review financial statements and identify and report on contributions made to candidates and third party registrants in excess of established limits and refer report to Compliance Audit Committee.

Election Signs and Advertising

 An election campaign advertisement will be defined as an advertisement in any broadcast, print, electronic or other medium that has the purpose of promoting or supporting the election of a candidate;  Candidates must now include language on their signs/in their ads to make clear who is responsible for the messaging;  Broadcasters and publishers will be prohibited from causing an election campaign advertisement to appear if the candidate’s name, as well last he name, business address and telephone number of the individual who deals with the broadcaster or publisher hasn’t been provided. Broadcaster must retain this information for four (4) years).  Tenants in apartments/condo etc. now have the right to display campaign signs, subject to the condo corporation’s/landlord’s right to limit size, etc.  Municipalities will have the authority to remove advertisement or discontinue advertising if contraventions of the provisions occur.

Recounts

 Additional reporting information about Election Results is required with ranked ballots.  Section 28 of the Regulation provides: As soon as possible after voting day, the clerk shall make the following information about the election for an office available to the public on a website or in another electronic format:  1. The number of ballots cast.  2. The number of ballots that were declined.  3. The number of ballots in which the votes for the office were rejected.  4. The threshold calculated under section 19 for the office.

- 5 -

Page 103 of 133  5. The number of votes cast for each candidate at the first round of vote counting.  6. The results of each round of vote counting, including the number of votes received by each continuing candidate for the round and the number of exhausted ballots.

Accessibility Plan and Reporting Clerks will be required to prepare accessibility plans to identify, remove and prevent barriers that could affect voters and candidates with disabilities. The plan must be available to the public before voting day. The Clerk’s Report to Council after voting day about the identification, removal and prevention of barriers (not a new requirement) must also be made available to the public.

Budget Implications: Increased administrative costs are anticipated based on the following:  Paper ballot production costs will be substantially increased based on the size and number of ballot faces requires for each voter, as well as, in anticipation of more spoiled ballots and replacements needed;  Additional staff will be needed to support research, planning and implementation ranked voting with new processes and audit procedures;  Extensive public education will be needed to inform and assist voters and this will require additional staff, as well as promotional materials and communication  Additional Election Officials will be needed to assist voters who are unclear on the new voting method and to ensure wait times are not increased;  Additional training will be required on all Election Officials to ensure that they are knowledgeable on ranked balloting and can assist voters.

Next Steps: Reports and draft by-laws to be provided to Council regarding the use of Ranked Ballots and Alternative Voting Methods @ the March and April meetings of Council.

5.0 DELEGATION / PRESENTATION

i) No Time to Wait: Healthy Kids in the Sudbury and Manitoulin Districts Report Card Progress Update - Paula Ross, Public Health Nutritionist, Nutrition Physical Activity Action Team, Health Promotion Division

Today’s presentation was to provide Board members with an update on the progress the SDHU has made over the last three years since the release of its No Time to Wait: Healthy Kids in the Sudbury and Manitoulin Districts Report Card in 2013 and to highlight next steps. Copies of the 2013 report card were available for the Board members next to the Boardroom display.

P. Ross began by noting that childhood obesity is a complex health issue that has major implications for society.

Board members were reminded that in 2012, the provincial government struck a Healthy Kids Panel (HKP) that consisted of multi-sectoral experts to inform the development of a strategy that would reduce childhood obesity in Ontario by 20% over five years. The SDHU was extremely proud to have Dr. Sutcliffe participate on the HKP as the only local public health representative. Following the release of the HKP recommendations in 2013 which included a comprehensive three-pronged strategy, the SDHU undertook a process of self-reflection and evaluated its efforts and actions against the HKP recommendations through a Healthy Kids in Sudbury and Manitoulin Districts report card with a resulting Grade B.

Page 107 of 133 Sudbury & District Board of Health Unapproved Minutes January 19, 2017 Page 4 of 14

Key SDHU actions that have taken place since the release of this local report card were outlined. These focus on starting all kids on the path to health, changing the food environment, and creating healthy communities. In order to have the greatest positive impact on child health, concerted, coordinated and collaborative efforts across all sectors of society have been important.

Over the next 2-3 years, the SDHU will continue to work with community partners and encourage their involvement in a community wide evaluation that will be more comprehensive and inclusive.

Questions were entertained and P. Ross was thanked for her presentation.

01-17 APPROVAL OF CONSENT AGENDA Moved by Myre – Lemieux: THAT the Board of Health approves the consent agenda as distributed. CARRIED

It was clarified that the financial control checklist was introduced by the Ministry as part of the 2015 Program Based Grant (PBG) process and submitted with the Board Chair’s signature along with our 2015 PBG request. For 2016, the checklist was requested as part of our quarterly financial reporting. New to the process is the requirement to insert on the form the date of the Board meeting at which it is shared.

The objective of the checklist per Ministry is to provide boards of health with an informative tool to be assured of key internal controls. The financial controls checklist deals mainly with the day-to-day operating financial processes of the organization. It helps provide the board assurance that the organization has adequate financial controls in place and practice. It is being shared for the Board’s information and will be brought forward to the next Board Finance Standing Committee in the context of its discussion of the organization’s management financial policies and practices.

Board members are pleased to see the ongoing advocacy taking place throughout the province as it relates to all aspects of the nutritious food baskets.

Dr. Sutcliffe clarified that the immunization rates referenced in the January Board report are not lower than the numbers reported at the same time last year. End of season will be also be compared with last year’s end of season.

Dr. Sutcliffe described the impacts of contraband tobacco campaigns and strategies from the tobacco industry.

03-17 ANTI-CONTRABAND TOBACCO CAMPAIGN Moved by Myre – Lemieux: WHEREAS the Sudbury & District Board of Health has reviewed information indicating that recent anti-tobacco contraband campaigns from the National Coalition Against Contraband Tobacco and the Ontario Convenience Store Association were supported

Page 112 of 133 Sudbury & District Board of Health Unapproved Minutes January 19, 2017 Page 9 of 14

by the tobacco industry with the intention of blocking tobacco excise tax increases and regulation of tobacco products generally; and

WHEREAS Ontario municipalities including the City of Greater Sudbury have endorsed such campaigns without being informed of tobacco industry support; and

WHEREAS municipalities within the SDHU service area are longstanding advocates for measures to protect the public from exposure to environmental tobacco smoke;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT the Sudbury & District Board of Health advise area municipalities of this information and urge municipalities to not endorse tobacco industry supported campaigns; and

THAT the Sudbury & District Board of Health request municipalities to call on the Ontario Ministry of Finance to raise tobacco excise taxes and enhance enforcement activities designed to reduce the presence of contraband tobacco in Ontario communities; and

FURTHERMORE THAT this resolution be shared with municipal councils, local MPPs, the Ontario Ministry of Finance, the Association of Local Public Health Agencies, Ontario public health units, and the Ontario Campaign for Action on Tobacco. CARRIED vi) Cannabis Regulation and Control - Letter from the Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit to the Minister of Health and Long-Term Care dated December 15, 2016

Dr. Sutcliffe noted that there is the ability within the current legislative regulations to prescribe certain substances for which regulations would be applicable. The proposed motion advocates that these would be subject to the same restrictions as tobacco. It is felt to be an important control measure to protect health.

Discussion ensued regarding the possibility of municipalities establishing municipal by-laws prior to provincial measures being put in place, similar to the municipal tobacco by-laws being put in place prior to having provincial laws.

Further questions were entertained and the Board consented to a friendly amendment to include municipalities as community partner in the last paragraph.

04-17 CANNABIS REGULATION AND CONTROL Moved by Thain – Pilon: WHEREAS the Final Report of the Task Force on Cannabis Legalization and Regulation, A Framework for the Legalization and Regulation of Cannabis, recommended to the federal government that

Page 113 of 133 Sudbury & District Board of Health Unapproved Minutes January 19, 2017 Page 10 of 14

current restrictions on public smoking of tobacco products be extended to the smoking of cannabis products and to cannabis vaping products; and

WHEREAS the recently amended Smoke Free Ontario Act permits certain products and substances to be prohibited under the regulatory framework of the Act; and

WHEREAS Sudbury & District Board of Health motion #54-15 called for a public health approach to the forthcoming cannabis legalization framework, including strict health-focused regulations to reduce the health and societal harms associated with cannabis use; and

WHEREAS a public health approach focuses on high‐risk users and includes strategies such as controlled availability, age limits, low risk use guidelines, pricing, advertising restrictions, and general and targeted prevention initiatives and allows for more control over the risk factors associated with cannabis‐related health and societal harms; and

WHEREAS by prohibiting the smoking of all cannabis in all places where the smoking of tobacco is prohibited, children, youth and adults in our communities will result in reduced public and second-hand exposure to cannabis;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT the Sudbury & District Board of Health call for the inclusion of marijuana (medicinal and recreational) as a prescribed product or substance under the Smoke Free Ontario Act; and

FURTHER THAT this resolution be shared with the Honourable Prime Minister of Canada, local Members of Parliament, the Premier of Ontario, local Members of Provincial Parliament, Minister of Health and Long-Term Care, Federal Minister of Health, the Attorney General, Chief Medical Officer of Health, Association of Local Public Health Agencies, Ontario Boards of Health, Ontario Public Health Association, the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, and local community partners, including constituent municipalities. CARRIED with friendly amendment

vii) Sugar Sweetened Beverages and Menu Labelling - Position of Dietitians of Canada – Taxation and Sugar-Sweetened Beverages, February 2016

The proposed motion is a call to endorse a well researched position paper that addresses the impact of sugar-sweetened beverages on children. The motion also speaks to the effective practice of taxation and positive impacts of policies which aim

Page 114 of 133 Sudbury & District Board of Health Unapproved Minutes January 19, 2017 Page 11 of 14

to decrease the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages. The position statement effectively addresses potential critiques of increased taxation.

It was acknowledged that this is only one element of a comprehensive strategy that needs to be put in place to address obesity and, for today’s motion, childhood obesity. Dietitians chose to develop this specific position statement knowing other strategies are as important and also being explored. It was pointed out that the Healthy Kids Community Challenge (HKCC) places a strong emphasis on the use of community water.

Dr. Sutcliffe referenced the Ontario Public Health Standards which establish the minimum requirements for fundamental public health programs and services to be delivered by Ontario's 36 boards of health. It is unknown whether the current review for the modernization of the OPHS will expand its reach to include elder programs/services.

05-17 SUPPORT FOR THE POSITION OF DIETITIANS OF CANADA ON TAXATION AND SUGAR-SWEETENED BEVERAGES AS PART OF A COMPREHENSIVE HEALTHY EATING APPROACH Moved by Pilon – Noland: WHEREAS obesity results from a complex interaction of many factors including genetic, social and environmental; and

WHEREAS 32% of Canadian children and youth have excess weight or obesity; and

WHEREAS intake of sugar-sweetened beverages is one of the dietary factors leading to increased rates of overweight and obesity; and

WHEREAS children with high intakes of sugar sweetened beverages are 55% more likely to have obesity or excess weight in comparison to those with low intakes; and

WHEREAS available evidence suggests that policy efforts which decrease the consumption of sugar sweetened beverages have the potential to positively impact the health of Canadians; and

WHEREAS the Dietitians of Canada position statement on Taxation and Sugar-Sweetened Beverages identifies sugar-sweetened beverage taxation as a public health intervention with potential positive health impact, especially when combined with further policy efforts; and

WHEREAS Dietitians of Canada recommends that an excise tax of at least 10-20% be applied to sugar sweetened beverages sold in Canada; and

Page 115 of 133 Sudbury & District Board of Health Unapproved Minutes January 19, 2017 Page 12 of 14

WHEREAS a number of influential Canadian national organizations support a tax on sugar sweetened beverages including the Association of Local Public Health Agencies, the Childhood Obesity Foundation, Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, Chronic Disease Prevention Alliance of Canada, and the Canadian Diabetes Association;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT the Sudbury & District Board of Health endorse the Position of Dietitians of Canada on Taxation and Sugar- Sweetened Beverages, and urge the federal government to implement an excise tax on sugar-sweetened beverages; and

FURTHER THAT copies of this motion be shared with key provincial and national stakeholders. CARRIED

Meeting Date: Report Date: February 15, 2017 February 7, 2017 Decision Requested: Priority: Yes High Direction Only: Type of Meeting: Open

Subject: 2017 Canada Day 150 Celebrations

Background: For several years, the Municipality of St. - Charles has planned, organized and operated Canada Day celebrations for the residents of St.-Charles and area. This year marks the 150th year celebration of Canada which falls on Saturday.

In 2016, largely because of poor weather conditions, the event was poorly attended. The cost to host the event was $9,073 which was offset by revenues of $4,241 including a $3,000 grant. Without the grant, the total cost to host this event was $6,073.

In previous years and under better weather conditions, the net cost to hold Canada day events was in the range of $7,997 in 2014 to $3,573 in 2015.

Traditional activities at the Canada Day Celebration include activities for children (bouncy castle), music (karaoke), a fish fry held by the Fire Department, and fireworks. The success of these activities /events has been very dependent on the weather and the day on which Canada Day falls (weekdays vs. long weekends).

A considerable amount of municipal staff time goes into the planning and organizing this event including reserving entertainment, purchasing liquor and fireworks, obtaining permits for food serving and alcohol sales, providing notification to local agencies e.g. OPP, Building Department, plus the setup, clean up and staff supervision during the event.

Analysis: Given that it is Canada’s 150th Birthday, it is anticipated that a larger number of communities will be hosting/organizing Canada day celebrations across the Country. Locally, it is known that the Municipalities of French River, Markstay-Warren and Killarney will be hosting celebrations and larger celebrations are planned for Timmins, Sudbury, and North Bay. The events in both Killarney and Markstay- Warren are largely run by local volunteers with little municipal involvement and the Municipality of

1

Page 119 of 133 French River has advised that after five years of municipal involvement in coordinating the Canada Day activities, they are re-thinking this approach due to the lack of staff resources.

Following the 2016 Canada Day celebrations, a staff report was provided to Council (see attached) with recommendations provided regarding budget and security. It is widely understood that events that offer liquor sales present a higher degree of risk for the host and its guests and a greater degree of security is required. At last year’s event, only one municipal staff person was on duty.

At this point, requests for grant funding to hold a Canada Day event have not been submitted.

Given these circumstances Council must decide on if it wants to: a) allocate staff time to plan/organize the Canada Day Celebrations; b) fund the Canada Day activities and c) allocate staff time to oversee and supervise the event.

For 2017, municipal staff has volunteered to work with a committee of volunteers to organize and run the event providing the community is prepared to step up.

Options for Council’s consideration:

1. Do not organize, host or operate a Canada Day 150 event. 2. Seek community volunteers to work in conjunction with municipal staff volunteers to host the event. 3. Turn the funding, planning, organization and delivery of the event over to a volunteer organization.(i.e. St.-Charles Fire Department)

Recommendation: Option 2: Seek community volunteers to work in conjunction with municipal staff volunteers to host the event for 2017.

Direction Only: Type of Meeting: Open

Report Title: 2016 Canada Day

The St.-Charles Canada Day event faced many challenges in 2016. The weather prevented the municipality from holding the usual fireworks display and the kid’s zone. Heavy rain prevented the kid’s zone supplier from setting up and the community arena could not be used to hold the kids zone. Opening the arena on Canada day would have required calling in at least 2 more employees to ensure that the arena was ready for the kid’s zone and to ensure that someone was available to address any issues that might have arisen.

Unfortunately the turnout for Canada Day was down due to the weather which impacted the revenues forecasted for this event.

Expenses Special Occasion Permit $75.00 Bar supplies $263.75 Fireworks $2992.30 Karaoke Services $625.00 Karaoke prizes $350.00 Kids Zone $4407.00 Float $700.00 LCBO order $412.96 Total $9,413.05 Harmonized Sales Tax Reimbursement -$752.12 Total Expenses = $9,073.89

Revenue Bar sales / Cash box $1241.00

Canada day grant $3,000.00

Page 121 of 133 Total $4,241.00 - 1 - Total Cost = $4,832.89

Issues for consideration in 2017

Budget A budget will need to be created and approved before any preparation for 2017 can begin. Kid’s zone reservations cannot take place until a budget is created and approved. There are considerations that must be included in deliberations for a 2017 Canada Day Event this includes security for the event. Grants cannot be applied for until a budget is completed as we need to know the contribution the municipality will put forward.

Security It is recommended that security services be budgeted for in 2017. Options for security services include off duty Ontario Provincial Police or private security companies.

Ifthe trailer is there more than aI'-'iJ'-III".-‘I-'?'dweek, up to a maximum to be determined, only one trailerI?-In:-I.would be allowed.

Page 127 of 133 Mr. McCann stated that he has 10 orders to comply with various situations. Some have waterfront access, one has five trailers on one lot, some have a primary residence and another has three trailers on a vacant lot. Member Schoppmann asked if perhaps a user fee could be instituted. Member Rook said that trailers have no septic plan and grey water cannot be dumped in a lake. Member Schoppmann asked if French River had a dumping station. Member Bigras said yes, at the Esso in Noelville. Member Schoppmann stated that St. Charles does not have a dumping station yet. Member Sharp advised that if someone wants to put a trailer on a Waterfront Residential or Rural property they should have a trailer plan in place for septic and grey water disposal.

Mr. McCann pointed out that most property owners are above board and want to do the right thing. Guest cabins are allowed on waterfront residential properties but are sometimes costly and are assessed for taxes. The homeowner is upset when the neighbour brings in an RVfor free, no building costs and not assessed for taxes.

Member Bigras thanked everyone for their comments and asked how the Board willaddress this issue. Member Sharp suggested a simple permit with requirements such as minimum lot area larger than the average waterfront lot. Mr. McCann stated that under the Zoning By-law, the trailer is considered a structure and would be included as a percentage of lot coverage.

Member Lemmon said that in the Unincorporated there was a person living in a travel trailer, built an addition and then brought in another travel trailer, the property was a real mess. The Director of Planning said that there was a process for the Unincorporated Townships for trailer contraventions and it is based on complaints received.

Member Bigras asked all of the Planning Board members to take the report back to their respective Councils and ask for opinions on the travel trailer issue. Bring these comments and opinions back to the Planning Board meeting in February.
