Reproduction of this document in whole or in part is permitted, provided the source (Christopher Twardawa and www.ctess.ca or www.TwardawaModel.org ) is fully acknowledged. © Christopher Twardawa, 2007 TwardawaModel.org CTESS.ca Sometimes the simplest solution is the best. Christopher Twardawa Electoral System Solution ii TwardawaModel.org CTESS.ca About CTESS The Christopher Twardawa Electoral System Solution (CTESS) is the creation of its author – Christopher Twardawa and is designed to provide a better electoral system than what Canada and its provinces now have. With the belief that the current system is good but requires improvements, CTESS strengthens it by identifying deficiencies and proposing innovations. Unlike any other electoral system currently in use and which all have tradeoffs, CTESS has no tradeoffs and therefore eliminates the need to change electoral systems as a whole. Christopher first started thinking about this after the 1993 Canadian federal elections, since the results of those elections appeared to him to be inconsistent with how the voters voted. Ten years later in 2003, while still in university, he came up with the current model (the Twardawa Model) which is a simple yet considerate and sophisticated model. It can be applied to any democratic state under the Westminster model of government and similar systems.

Laurel Broten Minister, Children and Youth Services 14th Floor 56 Wellesley Street West Toronto, Ontario M5S 2S3 Dear Minister Broten: Re. Healthy Babies Healthy Children Program On behalf of member Medical Officers of Health, Boards of Health and Affiliate organizations of the Association of Local Public Health Agencies (alPHa) I am writing to provide you with background information regarding the Healthy Babies Healthy Children (HBHC) Program. I hope that this material will be useful to you in preparation for our meeting on July 28. The Ontario Public Health Standards make it very clear that children’s growth and development are critically important factors in health throughout the lifespan, which are in part dependent on reaching accepted milestones in their ability to learn, understand and communicate. This standard reflects the incontrovertible evidence that demonstrates the magnitude of early child development in setting the foundation for lifelong learning, behaviour and health. The Healthy Babies Healthy Children program was conceived as a means to ensure that every child (pre- natal to age six) born in Ontario that may be at vulnerable to physical, cognitive, communicative and psychosocial risk factors to healthy development could be identified, assessed and connected to the interventions that are designed to prevent associated adverse developmental outcomes. It was also designed as a means to draw existing service providers – such as child care resource centres, peer support groups, mother and infant programs, women’s shelters, counseling services, Aboriginal programs and many others – into integrated local networks that would more effectively link at-risk families to the services that meet their particular needs.

This was most of my parents’ life savings …My father became depressed from losing all of his money. Coupled with the cancer that he had, this caused him to take his own life”. – A small investor Source: e-mail received by SIPA February 2006 May 4, 2006 Standing Committee on Justice Policy Room 1405, Whitney Block, Queen's Park Toronto, Ontario, M7A 1A2 Reference: Bill 14, An Act to promote access to justice by amending or repealing various Acts and by enacting the Legislation Act, 2005. Hon. Mr. Bryant. (Referred April 11, 2006). Dear Sir, We are pleased that the Standing Committee on Justice Policy is reviewing various acts to promote access to justice. Although we missed having the opportunity to make an oral presentation, we appreciate being able to make a written submission. We are quite concerned that legislation was passed reducing the limitation period from six years to two years. It is improbable that any organization dealing with victims’ issues was consulted prior to passing this legislation. The Small Investor Protection Association is particularly concerned about the treatment of victims of investment industry wrongdoing, however victims of other life altering events must also receive consideration.
