Purchased from Ryrie Bros. Ltd. of Toronto at a cost of $340.00, it is made of heavy gold-plated brass and is about four feet long. The head consists of a Royal Crown with the arches surmounted by a Maltese cross and bears the Royal Coat-of-Arms on the top indicating the Royal Authority. Each side is decorated with a sheaf of wheat, representing the province’s agricultural wealth, a beaver representing Canada and the monogram E.R. VII, representing the sovereign at the time, Edward VII. The shaft and base are ornamented with a shamrock, thistle and rose intertwined. A Latin inscription around the Royal Coat of Arms reads in English, “Edward the Seventh, by the Grace of God of British Isles and Lands beyond the sea which are under British rule, King, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India”.

KEY FINDINGS Council must adopt the capping parameters to be used for the multi-residential, commercial and industrial property classes as mandated by the province. Current Value Assessment (CVA) multiplied by the tax rate is CVA Tax. CVA Tax is the easiest, most equitable and transparent way to explain property tax to commercial and industrial property owners. At a minimum, a mandatory capping of 5% must be applied; additional options have been created allowing Municipalities to move to CVA Tax at a quicker pace.

  • Days of Action: Ontario's Extra-Parliamentary Opposition To
    Days of Action: Ontario's extra-parliamentary opposition to the Common Sense Revolution, 1995-1998 By Douglas James Nesbitt A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in History in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada May, 2018 Copyright ã Douglas James Nesbitt, 2018 Abstract From 1995 to 1998, Ontario was the site of a sustained political and industrial conflict between the provincial government of Premier Mike Harris and a loosely- coordinated protest movement of labour unions, community organizations, and activist groups. The struggle was aimed at the defeating the “Common Sense Revolution,” a sweeping neoliberal program advanced by the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario. The program designed to renovate the state, rationalize the social safety net, repeal barriers to capital accumulation, and decisively weaken the strength of organized labour. What became a union-led extra-parliamentary opposition drew in large sections of the population often aligned with a political culture of statist collectivism encompassing both social democracy and “Red Toryism”. The movement emerged at a time when the two major parties aligned with such ideas embraced neoliberal policies. Under the leadership of Mike Harris, the Red Tories were pushed out of the Ontario Progressive Conservatives in the early 1990s. Meanwhile, the one-term New Democratic government of 1990-95 made a decisive turn towards neoliberal austerity amidst a catastrophic recession, declining federal transfers, and employer hostility. Through the union-led “Days of Action” of large political strikes, mass demonstrations, and numerous militant protests, the implementation of the Common Sense Revolution was slowed and weakened and the government’s popularity greatly diminished.

Das Komitee bemüht sich, jedes Jahr Personen, Familien, oder Verbände zu ehren, die bedeutende Beiträge geleistet haben in der Entwicklung von Kitchener, dem Landkreis Waterloo, Ontario und darüber hinaus. Wir hoffen, dass die Information in unseren Broschüren zusammen mit den Veröffentlichungen der Museen zur Wertschätzung des euro-deutschen Erbes dieser Gemeinde und zum historischen Verständnis des besonderen Charakters unserer Gegend und der Einwanderer der zweiten Hälfte des letzten Jahrhunderts beitragen kann. In Kitchener und den umgebenden Gemeinden sind zwischen 10 und 25 Prozent der Bevölkerung deutscher Abstammung. Seit über 200 Jahren haben deutsche Einwanderer ihren Weg nach Waterloo County gefunden. Sie haben schwierige Umstände hinter sich gelassen, um für sich und ihre Kinder in Kanada ein neues Leben aufzubauen. Sie wurden dabei geleitet von ihren Prinzipien des Glaubens, sie fanden Stärke und Trost in der Ausübung von kulturellen Traditionen, und wandten ihr Arbeitsethos, ihre Fertigkeiten, und ihren Unternehmungsgeist dazu an, den Landkreis Waterloo und Ontario aufzubauen.
