All Members of Parliament All Members of Provincial Parliament The Regional Municipality of Niagara Ontario Municipalities 5 To: Mayor and Members of Council From: Sue Connor, Director of Transit Cc: Tim Commisso, City Manager Heather MacDonald, Executive Director, Community Planning, Regulation & Mobility Date: June 15, 2021 Re: Briefing Note – Transit Fleet Modelling Study Burlington Transit engaged the Canadian Urban Transit Research & Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC) to model our fleet, to assist us in the planning for the introduction of electric vehicles. This work was completed in late 2020 as an addendum to our Five-Year Business Plan. This predictive modelling study calculated the energy usage and energy efficiency under three different duty cycles using two BEB (Battery Electric Bus) configurations: Bus #1 and Bus #2 and considered winter operations with diesel heaters as well. The modelling prediction showed that current BEB technology can fully electrify Burlington Transit’s fleet with a one-to-one replacement of diesel buses when applying both depot and on-street chargers. However, it is not currently possible to use depot-only charging to do so. To achieve 100 per cent electrification with depot-only chargers, Burlington Transit would need to purchase extra BEBs to replace the existing diesel buses. In March 2021, we received $78,000 in grant money from the Province’s Ministry of Economic Development Job Creation and Trade (MEDJCT) fund that was administered through CUTRIC for projects. This grant is being used to engage CUTRIC to do further modelling of our fleet to understand the benefits of hydrogen fuel cell bus technology (FCEB) which will allow us to determine the best path forward for Burlington Transit in terms of greening our fleet. On our behalf, CUTRIC applied in April 2021 for matching funding of $78,000 to FCM’s Green Municipal Fund to continue the predictive modelling and a detailed Zero Emission Bus (ZEB) rollout plan for Burlington Transit. This plan will include detailed rollout planning for BEBs and FCEBs including: capital costs (bus, charging infrastructure, fueling systems) and operational costs over the vehicle lifecycle. It will also review options for funding and/or financing for the City. We are currently waiting for approval of our FCM application. 1 6 Briefing Note – Transit Fleet Modelling Study June 15, 2021 Page 2 This work is scheduled to be completed in Q1 2022 and will be presented in detail to Council including the full report prepared by CUTIC. This detailed work will set the foundation for an informed decision by Council and will be documentation that will be the basis for funding opportunities from other levels of government. Please let me know if you have any questions on this update.

  • “They Demanded — Under Duress — That We Stop Supporting Belinda ​[​Karahalios​]. We Are Appalled at This Bullying An
    Queen’s Park Today – Daily Report August 20, 2020 Quotation of the day “They demanded — under duress — that we stop supporting Belinda [Karahalios]. We are appalled at this bullying and abuse ​ ​ ​ of power. It is a direct attack on our democracy!” The now-derecognized PC riding association in Cambridge sends out flyers attacking Premier Doug Ford and the PC Party over alleged "intimidation tactics." ​ Today at Queen’s Park Written by Sabrina Nanji On the schedule The house reconvenes on Monday, September 14. The roster for the Select Committee on Emergency Management Oversight — which will scrutinize ongoing extensions of emergency orders via Bill 195 — has been named. The ​ ​ majority-enjoying PC side will feature Bob Bailey, Christine Hogarth, Daryl Kramp, Robin ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Martin, Sam Oosterhoff, Lindsey Park and Effie Triantafilopoulos. The New Democrat ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ members are Gilles Bisson, Sara Singh and Tom Rakocevic; Liberal MPP John Fraser will ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ take up the Independent spot. The committee was struck as an accountability measure because the PCs empowered themselves to amend or extend the emergency orders for up to the next two years, without requiring a vote or debate in the legislature. Bill 195, the enabling law, also requires the premier ​ ​ or a designate of his choosing to appear at the special committee to justify any changes to the sweeping emergency orders. Premier watch An RFP for the next leg of the Eglinton Crosstown tunnelling project will be issued today. Premier Doug Ford announced the move in Mississauga Tuesday alongside cabinet’s ​ ​ transportation overseers Caroline Mulroney and Kinga Surma. ​ ​ ​ ​ Three construction consortiums have already been shortlisted and are now able to present their detailed costing plans to Infrastructure Ontario.

  • WHAT the NEW DOUG FORD GOVERNMENT MEANS for the ENERGY SECTOR – a DETAILED ANALYSIS Posted on July 4, 2018
    WHAT THE NEW DOUG FORD GOVERNMENT MEANS FOR THE ENERGY SECTOR – A DETAILED ANALYSIS Posted on July 4, 2018 Categories: Insights, Publications With a new majority provincial government now fully in control of Ontario’s policy landscape, McMillan LLP and McMillan Policy Vantage Group are pleased to provide their insight into what lies ahead for clients and investors in the Energy sector. The New Energy Minister Ontario’s new Minister of Energy already has significant experience with the job ahead, having served in the equivalent federal portfolio in the Cabinet of former Prime Minister Stephen Harper. In that role, Hon. Greg Rickford would have engaged somewhat more on the oil and gas file than the electricity file, but having been responsible for the National Energy Board, he will be very familiar with the nuances of managing a regulated portfolio, and a regulator. Minister Rickford is the MPP for Kenora-Rainy River, the most northerly of the PC Party’s 76 ridings. He is also among the most educated, holding a nursing diploma from Mohawk College, a Bachelor of Science degree from Victoria University, civil and common law degrees from McGill University, and an MBA from Université Laval. Working as a nurse early in his career, Mr. Rickford was stationed in remote First Nations communities across Northern Ontario. He continued to work with Indigenous groups in the north as a lawyer, and later as the federal MP. The fact that Minister Rickford is one of only three members of the Ford executive with any Cabinet-level experience at all will serve him well, as he assumes the responsibilities previously carried by no less than three of his Liberal predecessors; in addition to Energy, he also serves as Minister of Northern Development, Mines, and Indigenous Affairs.

Municipalities are working around the clock to support our communities through the pandemic, keep residents safe and help people and businesses through these economic challenges. We are all taking extraordinary measures to support our residents, including our most vulnerable. Halton staff, whether in paramedic services, long-term care or public health, have been working tirelessly to protect the health and safety of our residents. We have been collaborating with the Ministry of Health on reporting, requesting and securing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for Halton’s needs. Internally, we have been working diligently to prioritize, manage as well as secure our own PPE supplies to meet the growing needs of our staff and residents in long-term care. I would ask for your formal assistance to expedite the provision of the PPE that we need to be able to deliver increased testing requirements and protect our front line health care workers. Specifically, we are requesting Nasal Pharyngeal swabs, N95 and surgical masks, sanitizer wipes and gel. We have been working with the Ministry of Health to request these supplies. However, some of our PPE delivery remains outstanding and it is critical that we receive these supplies as soon as possible.

    Queen’s Park Today – Daily Report March 11, 2019 Quotation of the day “Doug Ford has been ducking work and ducking accountability.” NDP MPP Catherine Fife criticizes the premier for being MIA in question period more than half ​ ​ of the time since December.

Premier watch This weekend Premier Doug Ford hit up a youth-focused roundtable discussion with ​ ​ Mississauga-Malton MPP Deepak Anand and visited IBM Canada’s headquarters in Markham. ​ ​ Ford trumpeted his government’s work to make Ontario “open for business” and “life more affordable for university and college students” on his social media feeds. But NDP MPP Catherine Fife says the premier has been “ducking work and ducking ​ ​ accountability” over the Ron Taverner controversy, pointing out Ford was MIA for 11 of 18 ​ ​ question periods since December.

  • Letter Sent Via Email May 2, 2021 to the Addresses Below Trained
    Letter sent via email May 2, 2021 to the addresses below Trained Personal Support Workers who have full time jobs with benefits including sick days are key to the improvement and recovery of the Long-Term Care (LTC) sector, staffing levels adequate to provide a minimum of 4 hours of care per resident by December 2022, and on-site unannounced inspections are recommendations from a Spring 2021 survey, Long Term Care in Ontario, with 1272 respondents covering 195 towns and cities in Ontario, from Ottawa to Oakville to Stratford and Windsor. The survey was done by CFUW Stratford in cooperation with CFUW chapters of Windsor, Oakville and Kitchener-Waterloo. These are members of the Canadian Federation of University Women (CFUW) Ontario Council, a voluntary, self-funded, non-profit organization with 49 chapters across the province. While fatalities in LTC have been declining since residents have begun to receive vaccines, this survey of well over 1000 people from across the province, proves that Ontario voters believe that the state of our homes for elders presents a grave humanitarian crisis. Staffing of our LTC facilities is considered a hugely important factor. An overwhelming majority do not believe that fully budgeting for adequate individual care should be delayed until 2024. We wonder why the deadline is 2024, and not earlier. While we also recognize that funding is being provided for training, given that training is only a year in length, again why the 2024 date? There is also distinct recognition that trained Personal Service Workers who have full time jobs with benefits including sick days are key to improvement and recovery in this sector.
