Ontario is providing over $27.5 million to support home care for over 7,400 more seniors and for expanded community health care services, including mental health supports, in the Central Local Health Integration Network (LHIN). This investment will support programs that reduce unnecessary emergency room and hospital admissions, including: . Improved access to culturally and linguistically appropriate mental health and addictions services, including enhanced crisis and trauma care through expanded services such as mobile crisis teams . Increased home care and an expansion of Home First, which helps patients move from hospital to home faster with additional community services . Additional spaces for supportive housing and assisted living services. Improving access to home care and community supports is a key priority of Ontario’s Action Plan for Health Care and helps to provide the right care, at the right time, in the right place. This is part of the Ontario government's economic plan to invest in people, invest in infrastructure and support a dynamic and innovative business climate. QUOTES “Our government is investing in health services that will help Vaughan residents get the quality care they need, closer to home.

  • Going Negative: Campaigning in Canadian Provinces
    Canadian Political Science Review Vol. 9, No. 1, 2015, 14-27 Going Negative: Campaigning in Canadian Provinces Alex Marland Department of Political Science, Memorial University of Newfoundland – Email address: [email protected] Abstract The study of political communication in Canada’s provinces suffers from an absence of pan-Canadian information. This descriptive article bridges the gap by documenting some observable trends. It submits that negative advertising is more intense in larger provinces than in smaller jurisdictions. Permanent campaigning is the new normal as electioneering ramps up in anticipation of a fixed date election. Provincial parties and citizens avail themselves of new technology by communicating with digital video, which is not subject to the same financial, technical, content or regulatory constraints as television. Similarities of political communication across Canada are noted, including copycatting of federal-level practices. Keywords provincial politics, political communication, negative advertising, permanent campaigning, fixed date elections, new information and communication technologies, video communication. Résumé: Les études en communication politique au Canada souffrent de l’absence d’observations pancanadiennes. Cet article descriptif comble cette lacune en documentant les tendances observables. Il soutient que la publicité négative est utilisée de manière plus intensive dans les grandes provinces que dans les plus petites juridictions. La campagne permanente est devenue la nouvelle norme, alors que l’électoralisme s’accélère dans l’attente d’une élection à date fixe. Les partis provinciaux et les citoyens tirent profit des nouvelles technologies en communiquant au moyen de vidéos, lesquels ne sont pas soumis aux mêmes contraintes financières, techniques et règlementaires qu’à la télévision. Les similitudes entre les pratiques de communication politique utilisées à travers le Canada sont constatées, incluant l’imitation des pratiques au niveau fédéral.

  • September 5, 2014 the Honourable Deborah Matthews Deputy Premier
    111 Peter Street – Suite 603 t: 416.408.4282 Toronto, Ontario f: 416.408.2991 M5V 2H1 www.johnhoward.on.ca September 5, 2014 The Honourable Deborah Matthews Deputy Premier and President of the Treasury Board Room 4320, 4th Floor, Whitney Block 99 Wellesley Street West Toronto, Ontario M7A 1W3 Dear Minister Matthews, On behalf of the John Howard Society of Ontario, I would like to extend congratulations to you on your recent re-appointment to the Cabinet. As you may be aware, the mission of the John Howard Society of Ontario is effective, just and humane responses to crime and its causes. Our 19 local offices, which are active in communities across the province, deliver vital services to Ontarians who are at risk or in conflict with the law. Our provincial office, through the Centre of Research, Policy & Program Development (The Centre), provides cutting-edge non-partisan research, evidence-based programming, policy development, and informative education material. A year ago today, the Centre released its report, Reasonable Bail?, which detailed how bail in Ontario has drifted far from its legislated purpose as outlined in the Criminal Code, resulting in significant costs to taxpayers and more people involved in the criminal justice system, with no benefit to community safety. In Ontario, we spend hundreds of millions of dollars detaining legally innocent people every year. Last year approximately 61,000 prisoners were admitted to our provincial jails. It costs, on average, $185 per day to incarcerate a person in Ontario’s jails. By comparison, supervising an individual in the community typically costs around $5 per day.

Resolution A11-4 - Promoting Public Health in Ontario The term “public health”, as it pertains to health protection, disease prevention and management, and health promotion, is not well understood by members of the public, potential partners, and policy-makers. It is nonetheless a key contributor to keeping Ontarians healthy, and we believe that a higher public profile can only strengthen the effectiveness of its contributions. We are therefore asking the Province to fund a single, centralized provincial public relations campaign to increase the profile of the public health system and what it does to address public health issues for Ontario residents. Resolution A11-5 - Reducing Barriers to the Provision of Public Health Services to Ontario First Nations In 2002, alPHa called for the establishment of an “Aboriginal Public Health system in and for Ontario First Nation citizens” that would “guarantee equitable and quality delivery of all aspects of the Health Promotion and Protection Act and to Ontario’s First Nation people (alPHa Resolution A02-10, also attached).

Premier Kathleen Wynne announced details of the community benefits declaration today at the Workers Health and Safety Centre in Toronto. The Premier was joined by several of the partners involved in reaching the agreement and delivering its economic benefits to the community. The partners have set a goal that 10 per cent of all trade and crafting hours needed for the project will be performed by apprentices and journey persons who live along the transit corridor and who have had trouble finding jobs. This valuable experience will offer them the opportunity to develop careers in the construction sector. The Eglinton Crosstown LRT is the first of several major transit projects that will include an agreement providing a range of social and economic benefits for communities. These include employment opportunities for youth and training programs. Community benefits programs are part of Ontario's plan to create jobs, grow our economy and help people in their everyday lives. QUICK FACTS BACKGROUND INFORMATION ADDITIONAL RESOURCES QUOTES "Infrastructure projects such as the Eglinton Crosstown LRT can create benefits for communities that go beyond simply building the infrastructure needed.

  • Draft Letter for Discussion Only
    DRAFT LETTER FOR DISCUSSION ONLY The Honourable Kathleen Wynne Premier of Ontario Room 281, Main Legislative Building, Queen’s Park Toronto, ON M7A 1A1 Dear Premier Wynne, As Chair of the Toronto Film Board, I met recently with representatives of FilmOntario, representing Ontario’s film, television and digital interactive sector. I want to take this opportunity to share with you some issues raised in that meeting and to ask for your support moving forward. Premier, at the City of Toronto we are proud that, since 1990, this sector has grown to be one of the most vibrant, high-quality screen-based industries in the world. It tells our stories, contributes to Ontario’s vibrant culture, and has become a pillar of the provincial economy contributing: • $1.6 billion in annual economic activity; • $290 million in annual direct local and provincial tax revenue; • 27,000 jobs supported throughout Ontario; and • production activity flourishing inside and outside of Toronto. While Ontario has the talent, infrastructure and training to compete globally, competition from other jurisdictions is stiff. Sadly, our industry took a significant blow and was destabilized by a cut to the Ontario Production Services Tax Credit (OPSTC) from 25% to 21.5% in last year’s budget. DRAFT Premier, I understand that the assumption behind the decision to cut the OPSTC was that recent currency fluctuations would provide the industry with a competitive boost to offset your government’s rollback. Unfortunately, while currency fluctuations play a role in sales cycles, they play no role in investment decisions. Our industry investors have affirmed as much.
