Reaction to Urban Meltdown Dear Editor, aving seen the article on the book launch of Clive Doucet’s “Urban Meltdown”, I found a copy on sale in one of our local shops. HBrowsing as I always do before a purchase, I was disconcerted to encounter on page 1 the following inaccuracy: “On November 10, 1997 I was to everyone’s astonishment elected to the City Council of the City of Ottawa......”. I read further to determine whether this was a simple oversight or editing error, but no. The inaccuracy was reinforced by the text and was repeated on page 236: “When I first arrived at Ottawa City Council in November of 1997.....”. In actual fact, Mr Doucet was not elected to Ottawa City Council in November 1997. The person elected to Ottawa City Council on that date was Inez Berg, who went on the serve the complete three-year term till 000. Mr Doucet was indeed elected in November 1997, but as a Regional Councillor, and in November 000, following amalgamation of City and Regional governments, he was elected as Capital Ward’s first City Councillor under the new amalgamated arrangements. It is interesting to speculate on Mr. Doucet’s motive for misrepresenting the facts in this way. A bit of poetic licence, perhaps? Or was he trying to build credibility by citing a 10-year record as City Councillor, without having to explain the esoteric details of how his initial election was actually to Regional Council, with amalgamation thereafter.

  • SPEAKING NOTES Mayor Jim Watson Budget 2019 Tabling Building a City with Better Roads, Housing, Transit and Safe Communities Wednesday, February 6, 2019 ********
    SPEAKING NOTES Mayor Jim Watson Budget 2019 Tabling Building a City with Better Roads, Housing, Transit and Safe Communities Wednesday, February 6, 2019 ******** Good morning everyone. Bonjour tout le monde. Today we are pleased to table the draft 2019 Budget for consideration and public input. The tabling of the Budget is the single most important discussion we have as a City each year. Page 1 of 54 C’est la discussion la plus importante que nous avons à chaque année. I had the pleasure of attending various ward consultations and I found that residents often have competing expectations regarding the City’s budget. However, they are also realistic about the City’s fiscal capacity – they know we have to set a limited number of priorities while living within our means. This year is particularly challenging given the compressed timeline resulting from the municipal election. Page 2 of 54 I am pleased to report that we are bringing forward a budget for 2019 that delivers on key commitments, namely: • reducing our infrastructure gap by boosting our spending on roads and sidewalks; • providing more affordable housing; and • making our communities safer and more resilient. Avec le budget 2019, nous investissons davantage dans nos routes et trottoirs et dans le logement abordable, et nous rendrons notre communauté plus sécuritaire. I want to start by sharing highlights of how Budget 2019 can help improve the lives of Ottawa residents. Page 3 of 54 Under Council’s direction, I believe we have assembled a spending plan for 2019 that balances key needs and priorities across our growing city.
