Transit Week Challenge Toolkit Here
Transit Week Challenge Toolkit By Free Transit Ottawa We are a group of transit-concerned, socially minded Ottawans who advocate for free transit in Ottawa. 1 Transit Week Challenge Toolkit The Steps Pg. # Pick a direction 2 Start organizing 3 Contact councillors 6 Be media ready 9 After the event 17 2 Transit Week Challenge Toolkit 1. Pick a Direction It’s important to make sure that from the start your campaign works with your politics. Are you focusing on the quality of the service or too-high fares? Challenging councillors to take specific action or mobilizing the public? What are your demands? Will you invite only councillors, or other political and community leaders to take the challenge? If you’ll invite others, who and why? As an example, FTO focused on mobilizing the public and improving transit service. We encouraged people to use hashtags to share their complaints which demonstrated public support for transit improvements. We sent councillors a survey to complete each day and one at the end of the challenge, which allowed us to collect stories and examples of the issues with transit. Our survey asked questions about which demographics were best served by our transit system, and what issues they faced in their day. We also offered a sign-up for non-councillors, so that citizens could take part. Make sure you know your goals so you can design a coherent campaign. 3 Transit Week Challenge Toolkit 2. Start Organizing To encourage councillors to be involved and to capture a wide net for your media coverage, we recommend partnering with other organizations as “endorsers.” What this means is that they support the challenge, and may choose to promote it.

Ottawa Transit Challenge 2020
Transit Challenge 2020 Ottawa Transit Riders, Free Transit Ottawa, Ecology Ottawa, and Healthy Transportation Coalition Ottawa Transit Challenge 2020 Why the Transit Week Challenge? In 2019, Free Transit Ottawa organized a Transit Week Challenge that took place from Monday, February 4th to February 10th 2019 as a way to bring focus to transit issues within the city. Councillors were invited to rely on transit for one week – to experience the city the way many people in Ottawa already do every day. Participants were encouraged to ride transit to and from work, to shopping, to appointments, and to social events. The Challenge represented the daily reality of Ottawa’s transit dependent residents: students, commuters, low income bus riders, and others without access to vehicles. 2020 The second annual Transit challenge took place from Monday, February 17 to Sunday, February 23, 2020. It was organized by the Ottawa Transit Riders, Healthy Transportation Coalition, Ecology Ottawa, and Free Transit Ottawa. We also reached out to fellow transit advocates in other cities and were delighted that Edmonton decided to conduct a similar challenge. What was the difference between Transit Challenge 2019 and 2020? - Launch of the LRT - Expanded number of people invited (reached out to city managers and OC Transpo executives) - Tracked participation, not just agreement - Two surveys - Report released quickly after end of challenge 2 | Page Ottawa Transit Challenge 2020 Participants Most councillors agreed to participate.

Investigating the Need for Structural and Functional Reform of Ottawa Police Service and Ottawa Police Services Board
Investigating the Need for Structural and Functional Reform of Ottawa Police Service and Ottawa Police Services Board Dr. Barry Wellar Professor Emeritus, University of Ottawa President, Information Research Board http://wellar.ca/informationresearch/ POLICE REFORM PROJECT Report 1 Ottawa, Canada September 27, 2020 Investigating the Need for Structural and Functional Reform of Ottawa Police Service and Ottawa Police Services Board A. Police Reform Investigation Terms of Reference The call to “Defund the Police”, as well as related calls about disbanding, re-organizing, downsizing, reviewing, and re-designing police service organizations and police services boards have attained a great deal of traction in communities across Canada, including Ottawa. As a result of that broad interest and the wide variety of concerns, there are many different topics which are pertinent to investigations into the need for structural and functional reform of police service agencies and police services boards, and there are many different ways to undertake the investigations. For a mix of reasons, this investigation is limited in scope to Ottawa Police Service and Ottawa Police Services Board. Consequently, the politicians of initial interest are members of council, City of Ottawa. Further, and consistent with the pillars that define the purpose of the Information Research Board (http://wellar.ca/informationresearch/6Pillars.html), the focus of this investigation is on citizens having free, easy, timely, and direct online access to police service records, and those of Ottawa Police Service in particular. And, as a final introductory remark, the research design uses survey questions as the means to ascertain the positions of Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson and councillors regarding the need for structural and functional reform of Ottawa Police Service and Ottawa Police Services Board.

Civic Engagement of Residents
MAKING VOICES COUNT A KIT FOR ENGAGING CITY DECISION MAKERS ABOUT THIS KIT FALL 2016 This kit encourages the long-term civic engagement of residents. It helps residents bring community concerns to the attention of City decision-makers so that positive change happens. This kit originated from an initiative originally called Making Votes Count, funded by the Ontario Trillium Foun- dation and the Catherine Donnelly Foundation, engaging Ottawa residents living on low-income in elections (2013-2016). Currently called Making Voices Count (MVC), with additional funds from United Way Ottawa, MVC is an initiative of the Coalition of Community Health and Resource Centres, the City for All Women Initiative (CAWI), community partners and residents to work with City of Ottawa decision-makers to create a city for all. This Civic Engagement Kit was identified by the Coalition of Community Health and Resource Centres (CCHRC) as an important tool for its staff, Board members and advocacy groups to help the Coalition build the long-term civic engagement of residents and bring issues to the City of Ottawa for change. City for All Women Initiative (CAWI) remains committed to its history of training and support- ing women to have a voice in city decision making. In using this kit, we can influence and bring positive change for the health and wellbeing of all Ottawa residents. We especially want to engage residents whose voices are least likely to be heard by City decision makers, including women from diverse backgrounds, people who are racialized, Aboriginal, LGBTQ+, newcomers, older adults, youth, people living with a disability, and/or people living in poverty and rural residents.

The park block is proposed at the entrance to the subdivision, where Longfields Drive and Kilspindie Ridge intersect.

Surrounding land uses include the Stonebridge Golf Course, low-rise residential neighbourhoods to the north and west, agricultural lands to the south, and the Rideau River to the east.
