  • 2018 12 10 FINAL RHTF Rep
    1 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Housing is the foundation of healthy families and strong communities. Having a safe place to call home is a basic and critical need for every person and every family. Unfortunately, many people in British Columbia are struggling to find a safe and secure home they can afford. Longstanding issues with the laws and regulations that govern rental housing in B.C. have made the search for, and the provision of, secure, quality, affordable housing even more difficult. Weak protections, inconsistent enforcement, and other loopholes are leaving people vulnerable to abuse and exploitation. The residential tenancy laws, policies and services are not meeting the needs of renters and rental housing providers in British Columbia today as the Residential Tenancy Act has not undergone a comprehensive review in 16 years. The existing residential tenancy system can be difficult to navigate, is outdated and fails to serve those who need it. For instance, the fact that the Act does not allow landlords and tenants to serve each other documents over email is a small example of antiquated regulations that make solving disputes more time consuming, expensive and difficult. For these reasons, Premier John Horgan appointed a Rental Housing Task Force in April 2018, to advise on how to improve security and fairness for renters and landlords throughout the province. The Task Force is composed of three members. It is led by the Premier’s Advisor on Residential Tenancy, MLA Spencer Chandra Herbert. MLA Adam Olsen, and MLA Ronna-Rae Leonard complete the team. During the spring and summer of 2018, the Rental Housing Task Force conducted a provincewide engagement with landlords, renters and others concerned citizens.

    B.C. Today – Daily Report June 17, 2019 Quotation of the day “We need John Horgan and his government to step up and take action — any action — to help our small, forest-dependent towns get through this challenging time.” Liberal MLA Dan Davies (Peace River North) says the NDP government has not done enough ​ ​ to support forestry-dependent communities, as mills around the province continue to close and curtail production. Today in B.C. The House is adjourned for the summer recess. Committees this week The Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services is conducting public ​ consultations on Budget 2020 this week, starting with a session in Prince Rupert at the Highliner ​ Plaza Hotel and Conference Centre at 2 p.m. today. Committee members will also visit Kitimat, Prince George, Fort St. John and Quesnel before heading back to the Lower Mainland for a consultation in Abbotsford on Thursday. The consultation period ends on June 28. Mill closures and curtailments lead to political jousting As announcements of mill closures and curtailments pile up, the opposition B.C. Liberals are calling on the NDP government to slash stumpage rates and reduce the carbon tax for the province’s forestry sector. “To date, the John Horgan government has thrown up its hands and told forest-dependent ​ ​ communities there is nothing it can do to help them,” Liberal Leader Andrew Wilkinson said in ​ ​ a statement, released in tandem with a letter addressed to the premier last week. “This is failed leadership on the part of John Horgan — plain and simple.

Doug Donaldson Minister of Indigenous Relations Min. of Forests, Lands & Natural Res. RM 323, Parliament Buildings RM 248, Parliament Buildings Victoria, BC V8V 1X4 Victoria, BC V8V 1X4 Dear Minister, Our local school district has come to us with a problem that I am sure we, together, can help with. The Cameron Lake Outdoor Education Centre has been identified as a possible TLE to be transferred to the West Moberly First Nations. School District 60 has used this crown land, under lease from the BC Government, for almost 30 years and over that time has put close to $1 million into this facility to develop a successful Outdoor Education Centre. By considering the transfer of this land to West Moberly First Nations, places a tremendous amount of stress and unnecessary burden on a school district that is always wrestling to find money to improve our students’ education. Since 1990, School District 60 was granted a lease for a small camp on Cameron Lake. Over the last 29 years the district has invested close to $1 million and The centre is located in the natural boreal forest on the shores of Cameron Lake, 25 km from Hudson’s Hope on Highway 29. The centre is not only used by students but also district staff and the general public where such uses are compatible with the goals of outdoor education and environmental awareness.

RECOMMENDATION / ACTION: [All Directors – Corporate Weighted] That the Regional District purchase an annual subscription (10 issues) of the Composite Public Affairs newsletter for an amount of $87 including GST. BACKGROUND/RATIONALE: I feel the newsletter is worthwhile for the Board’s reference. ATTACHMENTS: January 4, 2019 issue Dept. Head: CAO: Page 1 of 1 January 31, 2019 R-2 Composite Public Affairs Inc. January 4, 2019 Karen Goodings Peace River Regional District Box 810 Dawson Creek, BC V1G 4H8 Dear Karen, It is my pleasure to provide you with a complimentary issue of our new political newsletter, The Composite Advisor. British Columbia today is in the midst of an exciting political drama — one that may last for the next many months, or (as I believe) the next several years. At present, a New Democratic Party government led by Premier John Horgan and supported by Andrew Weaver's Green Party, holds a narrow advantage in the Legislative Assembly. And after 16 years in power, the long-governing BC Liberals now sit on the opposition benches with a relatively-new leader in Andrew Wilkinson. B.C.'s next general-election is scheduled for October 2021, almost three years from now, but as the old saying goes: 'The only thing certain, is uncertainty." (The best political quote in this regard may have been by British Prime Minister Harold MacMillan who, asked by a reporter what might transpire to change his government's course of action, replied: "Events, dear boy, events." New research suggests that MacMillan never said it — but it's still a great quote!) Composite Public Affairs Inc.

  • LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY of BRITISH COLUMBIA
    LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY of BRITISH COLUMBIA John organ Premier of British Columbia Parliament Buildings V8V 1 X4 Dear Premier Morgan, We are writing you concerning today's introduction of the Electoral Referendum Act, 2018, a piece of legislation that will enable a province wide referendum that will ask British Columbians whether BC should adopt a voting system based on a form of proportional representation. As part of this announcement, it was outlined that the Attorney General will be acting as an independent official and that his office will be responsible for drafting the referendum process and question. It was further outlined that in order to ensure independence, the Attorney General will be recusing himself from Cabinet and/or caucus discussions regarding the referendum. We want to express our support for these measures that will ensure a fair, transparent, and legitimate referendum process and question can be developed. This question of independence also touches on the agreement outlined in the Confidence and Supply Agreement signed between our two caucuses, which creates a relationship that includes consultation on key policy measures. To further ensure that the Attorney General s office can operate with independence, we want to confirm in writing that the BC Green Caucus will not seek to consult with the Attorney General s office when it comes to evaluating submissions that are made to the ministry during the engagement phase, or on the subsequent decisions regarding the development of a referendum process and referendum question. We look forward to working with you and your caucus on directly engaging with British Columbians about the importance of changing to a system of proportional representation, and strongly campaigning in support of this once the process has been developed by the Attorney General.

  • BC Veterinarians Need Your Help Combined
    Hello If you wish to help BC veterinarians address the shortage of veterinarians, you may wish to write your local MLA and ask them to support and increase to the number of BC students trained as veterinarians. Below is a sample email for you to send to your local MLA. You can also add to the email or replace it with your own. After the sample email, on page 2 and 3, is a list of all MLA email addresses to help you to find your MLA contact information. Should you wish to learn more about the shortage of veterinarians and the need for additional BC students to be trained as veterinarians, please scroll down to page 4 to read our summary document. Your help is greatly appreciated! Dear MLA, I wish to add my name to the list of British Columbians who find the shortage of veterinarians in BC unacceptable. We understand that BC can add an additional 20 BC student seats to BC’s regional veterinary college, but that the government declined to do so, citing costs. In the interest of animal health and welfare issues including relief from suffering and unnecessary death, public health, and biosecurity for BC, we ask you to ask the Minister of Advanced Education Anne Kang to fund an additional 20 BC seats at WCVM effective immediately. As a BC resident, I want my voice added as an individual who cares about the health and welfare of animals and who wishes the government to provide funding to help alleviate the shortage of veterinarians in BC.
