The key question then becomes: change to what? democraticSPACE.com). All 103 Citizens’ Assembly members were Listening to the Assembly consultations, its own deliberations, sent a little blue book that outlined the proposal, “Giving a Voice to and our own discussions with people across Ontario, we believe Ontario’s Regions.” that a mixed-member proportional system clearly represents the best system for Ontario. While the most adamant PR supporters Since that time, the Assembly has held dozens of consultation endorse List PR and STV, we cannot recommend either for meetings, documented on the Assembly website and through Ontario. Consultations suggest that the elimination of all local TV Ontario’s video coverage. Advocacy groups such as Fair Vote ridings -- which pure List PR and STV systems do -- would not be Canada/Fair Vote Ontario have also become involved, setting up well received (and perhaps compromise local representation and a website to debate various proposals. And we continue to have accountability). Secondly, we believe that plurality, majoritarian debates on DemocraticSPACE about electoral reform.

These other alternatives have to the questions and concerns of Assembly members and the only local representation (providing accountability but sacrificing Ontarians at large. It is in that spirit that we submit our final, proportionality and voter choice) or only regional representation revised model for your consideration.

  • 'Turncoats, Opportunists, and Political Whores': Floor Crossers in Ontario
    “‘Turncoats, Opportunists, and Political Whores’: Floor Crossers in Ontario Political History” By Patrick DeRochie 2011-12 Intern Ontario Legislature Internship Programme (OLIP) 1303A Whitney Block Queen’s Park Toronto, Ontario M7A 1A2 Phone: 416-325-0040 [email protected] www.olipinterns.ca www.facebook.com/olipinterns www.twitter.com/olipinterns Paper presented at the 2012 Annual meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association Edmonton, Alberta Friday, June 15th, 2012. Draft: DO NOT CITE 2 Acknowledgements I would like to thank the following people for their support, advice and openness in helping me complete this research paper: Gilles Bisson Sean Conway Steve Gilchrist Henry Jacek Sylvia Jones Rosario Marchese Lynn Morrison Graham Murray David Ramsay Greg Sorbara Lise St-Denis David Warner Graham White 3 INTRODUCTION When the October 2011 Ontario general election saw Premier Dalton McGuinty’s Liberals win a “major minority”, there was speculation at Queen’s Park that a Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) from the Progressive Conservative (PC) Party or New Democratic Party (NDP) would be induced to cross the floor. The Liberals had captured fifty-three of 107 seats; the PCs and NDP, thirty-seven and seventeen, respectively. A Member of one of the opposition parties defecting to join the Liberals would have definitively changed the balance of power in the Legislature. Even with the Speaker coming from the Liberals’ ranks, a floor crossing would give the Liberals a de facto majority and sufficient seats to drive forward their legislative agenda without having to rely on at least one of the opposition parties. A January article in the Toronto Star revealed that the Liberals had quietly made overtures to at least four PC and NDP MPPs since the October election, 1 meaning that a floor crossing was a very real possibility.

    Public Registry of Designated Travellers In accordance with the Members By-law, a Member of the House of Commons may designate one person, other than the Member’s employee or another Member who is not the Member’s spouse, as their designated traveller. The Clerk of the House of Commons maintains the Public Registry of Designated Travellers. This list discloses each Member’s designated traveller. If a Member chooses not to have a designated traveller, that Member’s name does not appear on the Public Registry of Designated Travellers. The Registry may include former Members as it also contains the names of Members whose expenditures are reported in the Members’ Expenditures Report for the current fiscal year if they ceased to be a Member on or after April 1, 2015 (the start of the current fiscal year). Members are able to change their designated traveller once every 365 days, at the beginning of a new Parliament, or if the designated traveller dies. The Public Registry of Designated Travellers is updated on a quarterly basis. Registre public des voyageurs désignés Conformément au Règlement administratif relatif aux députés, un député de la Chambre des communes peut désigner une personne comme voyageur désigné sauf ses employés ou un député dont il n’est pas le conjoint. La greffière de la Chambre des communes tient le Registre public des voyageurs désignés. Cette liste indique le nom du voyageur désigné de chaque député.

    PRESENTATION OVERVIEWS 3 PARTICIPANT DISCUSSION 7 AGENDA 12 PRESENTERS 13 LIST OF PARTICIPANTS 14 2 Moderator: DAVID SPARLING, Professor and Chair of Agri-Food Innovation and Regulation, Richard Ivey School of Business Water and Food Innovation Driven by Economics The ability to link energy and water consumption to profits makes good business sense. Within the Ontario Food Processing Sector, differences exist in awareness and ability to adopt sustainable water use practices. The Ontario Food Processing Sector represents: • the 2nd largest manufacturing sector in Ontario; • 3 000 establishments and 114 000 employers; • 68% of firms having fewer than 20 employees; • 2 to 3% profit margin. Increased interest in the sector is resulting from: • high expectations in terms of feeding the global population, in a sustainable manner; • relative economic stability and protection from global recession as compared to other sectors; • continual, incremental improvements in efficiency, competitiveness and productivity. Drivers for efficiency in the Agriculture and Agri-Food industry relate to: • lack of scale and investment in the Canadian Food Processing sector, as compared with other regions; • exports, accounting for a large proportion of production, and adapting to a high Canadian dollar; • increased pressure by customers on suppliers for sustainably produced products. Drivers for innovation and competitiveness identified by the Ontario Food Processing industry include: • increasing market share and the desire to expand into new markets; • driving waste and costs out of the system, particularly in terms of water and energy; • meeting food safety and health regulations. Many companies are forming internal change groups, and different relationships with suppliers, customers, consultants, governments and university researchers, to address sustainability issues.
