Despite the challenges presented by economic and political uncertainty, 2008 was a successful year for our Association. Our membership I increased; we strengthened existing relationships and established new partnerships; we advocated legislative reform; we host- ed conferences, workshops, and other events that provided opportunities for police to work with partners and supporters to build a better, safer future for all Canadians. Our successes are the direct result of an energized and enthusiastic membership who have taken on tough issues ranging from gang violence, emergency management and traffic in our local communities, to advocating for changes to lawful access legislation, to improving our abilities to collaboratively investigate global organized crime, child sexual exploitation, and financial crimes. Although progress in many areas is incremental, we are determined to continue our efforts to provide effective and responsible service to our communities. To all of you who have supported us by advertising in this Annual Review, a big thank you. Your contributions enable us to share some of the work we are doing with a much broader audience.

  • York Region District School Board Recognition of Heritage/Significant Months/Days
    YORK REGION DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD RECOGNITION OF HERITAGE/SIGNIFICANT MONTHS/DAYS Background: At the October 2016 Chair’s Committee meeting Corporate Communications shared research related to the recognition of heritage/significant months/days at Board meetings. During that Chair’s Committee proceedings, Corporate Communications was asked to bring back a fulsome list of months and days that the Board may consider recognizing at its Board meetings through formal motions on a monthly basis. Currently, York Region District School Board recognizes heritage months and celebrations through the following: Public website: recognize events identified in the holidays and observances calendar; and heritage months. Twitter: tweets regarding heritage months and tweeting to some specific events that may occur throughout the year at individual sites. Board meetings: recognition is done informally by the Director during “information items” and by trustees at their discretion during “announcements.” Rationale: Corporate Communications has reviewed the list of months and days recognized by the Province of Ontario (as listed on the Ministry of Citizenship website) and other significant days that the Board has recognized through the mediums listed in the Background. While other dates may be added on an ongoing basis, it is recommended that the Board recognize the months/days in the chart below. When Board meetings occur on dates following the significant day/month, it is also recommended that the Board pass a motion at its meeting preceding the month to be recognized. Where Board meetings occur on dates following the significant day/month, it is further recommended that the Board pass a monthly motion at its meeting preceding the month to be recognized.
