It is the intention of this report to highlight areas of strength, as well as weakness in school readiness in conjunction with the current reach of OEYC programs and services and the demographic and socio-economic context within which the OEYC operates. The EDI is a tool that helps communities to understand how they are preparing children for Grade one. OEYCs are key members of this community which help in preparing children for success in school. Taken together, the EDI, Census and client participation information can be used to support OEYC program planning to ensure that key areas of child development are supported in programs delivered by OEYCs. This report provides comparisons of the status of the Brampton West-Mississauga Riding with that of Peel Region using Census 2001 and Census 2006 data. Key findings are highlighted to keep the OEYC in tune with the evolution of the communities they serve and the school readiness needs of children within the Riding. A number of maps are appended at the end of this report and referenced through the different sections of the report, to aid in the interpretation of data presented. The report ends with a discussion of how the data provided can be used in practical ways to support OEYC service and program planning and delivery. - 1 - Map of Selected Peel Early Years Sites The map below illustrates selected Peel Early Years Services including the location of OEYC main and satellite sites. - 2 - Brampton West-Mississauga Riding Selected Early Years Services Map The map below illustrates selected Brampton West-Mississauga Riding Early Years Services with the OEYC main and satellite sites indicated along with other early year services. - 3 - OEYC Participant Map The map below illustrates the location of clients using the Brampton West-Mississauga OEYC between April 1- December 31, 2008.

  • The ONTARIO ENERGY REPORT Bruce Power Is Helping Ontario Achieve a Number of Important Policy Goals While Simultaneously Advancing Nuclear Medicine and Human Health
    The ONTARIO ENERGY REPORT Bruce Power is helping Ontario achieve a number of important policy goals while simultaneously advancing nuclear medicine and human health. Bruce Power is and will remain a key contributor to keeping Ontario’s electricity system clean, while providing low-cost electricity rates that help Ontario business grow and families prosper. ONTARIO’S SUPPLY MIX Electricity supply in Ontario comes from a diverse mix of different fig. 1 Ontario’s Electricity Production in 2019 fuel types: wind, solar, hydro (waterpower), natural gas, and nuclear. These fuel types have different supply characteristics, all of which Biofuel 0.45% Solar 0.25% Wind 7.4% are needed to meet the province’s demand. Managing a balanced supply mix which is flexible, reliable, affordable, and low-emitting as possible ensures Ontario always has the electricity it needs to keep the lights on. Hydro ONTARIO’S SUPPLY MIX INCLUDES: 24.5% • Base-load supply includes sources like nuclear and hydro. They are low-cost, reliable, Greenhouse Gas Emission (GHG)-free and supply electricity 24/7. Nuclear 61% • Intermittent supply includes sources like wind and solar. They Gas 6.4% provide electricity when the wind is blowing and the sun is shining. This output is highly variable. Source: IESO • Peaking supply sources like natural gas and peaking hydro are used when demand is at its highest. They are flexible and can come online quickly should the need arise. fig. 2 Ontario Generation (2007-2019) • Flexible nuclear from the Bruce Power site. Bruce Power's Nuclear Natural Gas Hydro Coal Non-hydro renewables eight-unit site adds flexible, dynamic capability.

  • Members to Vote on Bylaw Change That Realign RNAO's Chapter Boundaries
    Members to vote on bylaw change that realign RNAO’s chapter boundaries t a meeting of RNAO’s board of directors held Feb. 22, 2020, and following consultation with members at the Feb. 21, 2020 assembly meeting, a motion was passed to approve a proposed amendment to ABylaw 3.0. The board proposal would alter chapter and region boundaries so they follow boundaries of Ontario’s provincial electoral ridings. The proposed change is designed to better position how RNAO’s membership is organized geographically across the province with the political activities of the association. Ontario changed its riding boundaries ahead of the 2018 provincial election so its ridings were more closely aligned with federal ridings, which changed for the 2015 federal election. The board believes the proposed change would continue to foster and strengthen relationships members and chapter executives, in particular, have created with MPPs and MPs and facilitate future political action at the municipal level where responsibility for so many issues related to determinants of health lies. Currently, ridings in some chapters crossover into neighbouring chapters, which can lead to confusion and splits responsibility for organizing political action events among chapters. Realigning chapters would also provide members with the opportunity to create stronger relationships with their community leaders and local media. Under the proposed amendment, no new regions would be created; however, chapter boundary changes will have implications for region boundaries thereby triggering the need for the bylaw change. Four new chapters would be created: York East, York West, Mississauga and Brampton. The proposed realignment would add four consultation representatives to RNAO’s network of voting delegates.

This research study uses spatial and statistical analyses to test patterns of association between the electoral support for the three major parties and presence of ethnic and visible minority communities.
