  • March 8, 2019
    Queen’s Park Today – Daily Report March 8, 2019 Quotation of the day “Lisa, listen to us!” A woman yells at Children Services Minister Lisa MacLeod as she’s escorted from the chamber ​ ​ while hundreds descended on the south lawn in protest of the PC’s revamped autism system. Today at Queen’s Park On the schedule MPPs are heading back to their ridings for the March Break constituency week. The House is adjourned until Monday, March 18. Thursday’s debates and proceedings MPPs considered Bill 74, People’s Health Care Act, before question period. The legislation to ​ ​ ​ ​ establish an Ontario Health super-agency needs roughly two more hours of debate before a second-reading vote can be called. A Tory backbench bill and motion, as well as inaugural Ontario Green legislation, chugged forward during the afternoon’s private members’ business: ● PC MPP Christine Hogarth’s Bill 65, Protecting Our Pets Act, will go under the ​ ​ ​ ​ microscope at the Standing Committee on Justice Policy. The bill would establish an advisory committee to report on the quality of care for companion animals kept for entertainment, breeding, exhibition, boarding, hire or sale. ● PC MPP Donna Skelly’s motion — calling on the government to design a plan to ​ ​ ​ ​ promote a no-cost program that encourages unwanted clothing and textiles be donated to local charitable and non-profit organizations — passed after debate. (Motions are non-binding but have symbolic value — and Skelly’s got a dedicated hashtag from the premier: “#DontDumpDonate.) ​ ​ ● Green Leader Mike Schreiner’s Bill 71, Paris Galt Moraine Conservation Act, to protect ​ ​ ​ ​ the drinking water supply in Guelph, Wellington County and Waterloo region, is off to be studied by the general government committee.

    November 25, 2020 Hon. Sylvia Jones Solicitor General George Drew Building,18th Floor 25 Grosvenor St. Toronto, ON M7A 1Y6 Re: Schedule 6 of Bill 229 - Open Letter to the Honourable Sylvia Jones, MPP for Dufferin-Caledon Dear Honourable Sylvia Jones: Mono Council unanimously passed a resolution at its meeting of November 24, 2020 and we append a copy of it to this letter. Mono is a member of three conservation authorities – Toronto Region, Credit and the Nottawasaga. We value the services provided – all services but in particular the assistance in making planning decisions that protect our drinking water, that protect us from developing in flood-prone areas and that protect our wetlands and aquifers. In 2021 Mono will spend $133,365 on conservation authorities. If we had to hire our own employees – engineers, planners, ecologists, hydrogeologists, foresters, outdoor educational staff, etc. – to do its own work, we would spend much more than $133,365 for these services We were not impressed with Schedule 6 to Bill 229. It undermines the power of conservation authorities to do their job. And we were particularly unimpressed when your government slipped these proposed changes to the Conservation Authorities Act into a Budget Bill. We are concerned that Schedule 6 undermines the ability of conservation authorities to make non-political, technical decisions based on science. It does this by allowing the Minister to over- rule the decisions of conservation authorities. Schedule 6 will also interfere with the fiduciary duty of a conservation authority board member. Board members have to think of watershed- wide interests in making decisions.

Our vision is for an accessible, affordable, accountable and high quality post-secondary education in Ontario. OUSA’s approach to advocacy is based on creating substantive, student driven, and evidence-based policy recommendations. INTRODUCTION Student leaders representing over 150,000 undergraduate students from across Ontario attended OUSA’s annual Student Advocacy Conference from November 16th to the 19th. Delegates met with over 50 MPPs from four political parties and sector stakeholders to discuss the future of post-secondary education in Ontario and advance OUSA’s advocacy priorities. Over five days, the student leaders discussed student financial aid, quality of education, racial equity, and student mental health. As we navigate the global pandemic, OUSA recommends improvements to the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP), guidance and support for quality online learning, training and research to support racial equity, and funding for student mental health services.

Christine Elliott Deputy Premier and Minister of Health and Long-Term Care Ministry of Health 5th Floor 777 Bay St. Toronto, Ontario M7A 2J3 Dear Minister Elliot: Over the last few days, our Association has received additional concerns from many of our members about their safety and the safety of their patients and clients should a return to work be implemented by the Ontario Government in the near future. In particular, there were concerns about lack of time to make needed preparations to ensure the safety of their patients. The experience of long-term care where many staff have been infected and a number have died, emphasizes the risk of exposing staff too early and especially without proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) readily available. A phase one return may not be appropriate because of the need to prepare for safe working conditions for RMTs and patients. I remain confident that the Government will prioritize a return to work strategy that ensures the safety of both workers and the people they come in contact with, in the case of RMTs – their patients. RMTs are an important part of the health care of Canadians, providing critical treatments including but not limited to post-surgical rehabilitation, manual lymph drainage that can keep people out of hospital emergency rooms, and relief of the physical symptoms of stress, which is of particular concern to Ontarians and especially frontline workers to help get through this difficult time.

As we gather on the traditional territory of the Tsleil-Waututh, Musqueam and Squamish peoples, we thank them for their extraordinary hospitality and generosity. Politically, British Columbia used to be known as the Left Coast, but it is clear that this is now the Green Coast! Saanich-Gulf Islands was our first federal seat – but now Andrew Weaver leads a caucus of Greens in the B.C. legislature. My own MLA, Adam Olsen, is speaking this weekend on his work to protect wild salmon, and Sonia Furstenau, MLA from Cowichan Valley, will share her deep understanding of the case for proportional representation. Still, our claim to be the Green Coast may be disputed by David Coon (Leader, Green Party of New Brunswick) and Peter Bevan-Baker (Leader, Green Party of Prince Edward Island). With elected Greens in two legislatures and the P.E.I. Greens now in first place in province-wide polling with the highest-ever numbers of any Green Party in Canada — 38 percent! — they could certainly argue that the Atlantic is our true Green Coast.
