Indicate its support for the Canadian libraries in their efforts to increase access to e-content for library users in the City of Pickering and across Canada; 2.

  • WHAT the NEW DOUG FORD GOVERNMENT MEANS for the ENERGY SECTOR – a DETAILED ANALYSIS Posted on July 4, 2018
    WHAT THE NEW DOUG FORD GOVERNMENT MEANS FOR THE ENERGY SECTOR – A DETAILED ANALYSIS Posted on July 4, 2018 Categories: Insights, Publications With a new majority provincial government now fully in control of Ontario’s policy landscape, McMillan LLP and McMillan Policy Vantage Group are pleased to provide their insight into what lies ahead for clients and investors in the Energy sector. The New Energy Minister Ontario’s new Minister of Energy already has significant experience with the job ahead, having served in the equivalent federal portfolio in the Cabinet of former Prime Minister Stephen Harper. In that role, Hon. Greg Rickford would have engaged somewhat more on the oil and gas file than the electricity file, but having been responsible for the National Energy Board, he will be very familiar with the nuances of managing a regulated portfolio, and a regulator. Minister Rickford is the MPP for Kenora-Rainy River, the most northerly of the PC Party’s 76 ridings. He is also among the most educated, holding a nursing diploma from Mohawk College, a Bachelor of Science degree from Victoria University, civil and common law degrees from McGill University, and an MBA from Université Laval. Working as a nurse early in his career, Mr. Rickford was stationed in remote First Nations communities across Northern Ontario. He continued to work with Indigenous groups in the north as a lawyer, and later as the federal MP. The fact that Minister Rickford is one of only three members of the Ford executive with any Cabinet-level experience at all will serve him well, as he assumes the responsibilities previously carried by no less than three of his Liberal predecessors; in addition to Energy, he also serves as Minister of Northern Development, Mines, and Indigenous Affairs.

  • '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.

  • Lessons Learned from a Massive Climate Achievement
    ONTARIO CLEAN AIR ALLIANCE RESEARCH Lessons learned from a massive climate achievement by Brad Cundiff April 2015 160 John Street Suite 300 Toronto, Ontario M5V 2E5 Phone: 416-260-2080 [email protected] ONTARIO CLEAN AIR cleanairalliance.org ALLIANCE RESEARCH Special thanks to the Ivey Foundation and the Metcalf Foundation for their generous financial support. Report distribution partner: Ontario’s Coal Phase Out: Lessons learned from a massive climate achievement ©2015 Ontario Clean Air Alliance Research Author: Brad Cundiff, Green Living Communications Cover photograph: Demolition of Lakeview coal plant by Toronto Star Preface When we started the campaign to get rid of dirty coal, few thought we would succeed. Eliminating coal use meant getting the province’s giant electric utility to abandon a source of cheap, albeit highly polluting, energy. It meant convincing political leaders that Ontario could make the transition to cleaner electricity sources without the lights going out and bills soaring. And it meant massively increasing public understanding of the threat posed by coal, its role in the province’s electricity system, and cleaner alternatives. Coal’s oversized pollution footprint, however, also made it a huge opportunity to drive massive improvements in air quality and to make major progress in reducing climate destabilizing emissions. The task, then, was to tell an effective story about what could be gained by shifting away from coal and how we could keep the lights on without it. Our success in doing that was thanks to efforts of many people and organizations who believed in our vision of a coal-free Ontario. I would particularly like to thank the Ontario Medical Association and the Toronto Public Health, especially the late Dr.
