In Fort St John alone, 125 people have been unemployed. The closures have had a lasting impact on workers and their families in all of our communities, with no indication of when they may be able to return to work. While this carries on, we have residents who have now gone online and most likely online overseas for this activity. What does that do in our community? • There is no income for the impacted families • Gaming revenue to support healthy activity in the community has diminished significantly • UNLIKE our in-person Casino, there is no support available to those with gambling addiction There is no request for any special treatment; we wish to reiterate what we said in our previous letter, we understand that safety is the number one priority. The casino has gone above and beyond other enterprises to ensure this. I would be happy to take you on a virtual tour. Workers and their families deserve to know what the Province is doing to get them back to work as quickly and safely as possible.

Business Arising Out of the Minutes: Administration Report No. 0029/21 2021 NCLGA Proposed Resolutions Mayor Ackerman shared that she sent the NCLGA proposed resolutions to regional colleagues. A suggestion was made to remove the word local from the last paragraph of the RCMP Cost for Municipalities resolution. Councillor Klassen asked if taking out the word ‘local’ was going to broaden the topic so much that the specific intent will be lost. Mayor Ackerman noted that municipalities have seen increased levels of cost for RCMP services whereas the Province has not seen the same level of increased cost. The intention of the proposed amendment is to distribute RCMP costs equitably across local and higher levels of government. The CAO expressed support for the proposed amendment to address the issue of inequitable distribution. RESOLUTION NO. 71/21 MOVED/SECONDED "THAT, the last paragraph of Resolution No. 67/21 regarding RCMP Costs for Municipalities be amended as follows: THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the NCLGA and UBCM be requested to lobby the Provincial Government to implement a police funding formula that fairly and equitably distributes RCMP expenses to all governments throughout the Province.” CARRIED OPPOSED Councillor Klassen February 22, 2021 Regular Council Meeting Minutes Page 8 of 24 AGENDA ITEM #4.1 City of Fort St John Regular Council February 22, 2021 Page 3 7.

The Recreation Manager thanked everyone for participating in the 2021 Mayor’s Carving Challenge. The recreation department received hundreds of votes on the challenge. The Recreation Manager, Frozen John and Olaf announced Councillor Klassen as the winner of the 2021 Mayor’s Carving Challenge and presented him with an award. Council commended Councillor Klassen on the achievement and thanked recreation staff for the opportunity to participate in the High on Ice Festival. The Recreation Manager, Frozen John and Olaf left the meeting. 8. Development Variance Permits / Temporary Use Permits Administration Reports: Administration Report No. 0015/21 ABC Medical Clinic Development Variance Permit Application - 9842 - 101 Avenue The applicant was not present to make comment on the application. RESOLUTION NO. 72/21 MOVED/SECONDED "THAT, the applicant be invited to address Council regarding the Development Variance Permit application for 9842 101 Avenue at this time." CARRIED A letter of comment from Grant and Lucy Timmins was attached to the agenda and reviewed by Council. Councillor Hansen asked if a compromise of the applicant donating or planting a tree in a park area would be possible as they are unable to adhere to the landscaping requirement at their location. Mayor Ackerman clarified that the bylaw outlines the landscaping requirement. The Director of Planning and Engineering stated that he does not think the bylaw provides direction to put landscaping somewhere else. There would have to be changes to provisions in the bylaw to state they can contribute cash in lieu or something similar for a change to take place.

    Canadian eview V olume 42, No. 4 Right to BaRe Arms Dress Guidelines in British Columbia’s Legislative Assembly p. 6 2 CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/SUMMER 2019 There are many examples of family members sitting in parliaments at the same time. However, the first father-daughter team to sit together in a legislative assembly did not happen in Canada until 1996. That is when Sue Edelman was elected to the 29th Yukon Legislative Assembly, joining her re-elected father, Ivan John “Jack” Cable. Mr. Cable moved to the North in 1970 after obtaining degrees in Chemical Engineering, a Master’s in Business Administration and a Bachelor of Laws in Ontario. He practiced law in Whitehorse for 21 years, and went on to serve as President of the Yukon Chamber of Commerce, President of the Yukon Energy Corporation and Director of the Northern Canada Power Commission. He is also a founding member of the Recycle Organics Together Society and the Boreal Alternate Energy Centre. Mr. Cable’s entry into electoral politics came in 1992, when he successfully won the riding of Riverdale in East Whitehorse to take his seat in the Yukon Legislative Assembly. Ms. Edelman’s political presence had already been established by the time her father began his term as an MLA. In 1988, she became a Whitehorse city councillor, a position she held until 1994. In her 1991 reelection, she received more votes for her council seat than mayor Bill Weigand received. Following her time on city council, she was elected to the Selkirk Elementary School council. In the 1996 territorial election, she ran and won in the Riverdale South riding.

    B.C. Today – Daily Report June 17, 2019 Quotation of the day “We need John Horgan and his government to step up and take action — any action — to help our small, forest-dependent towns get through this challenging time.” Liberal MLA Dan Davies (Peace River North) says the NDP government has not done enough ​ ​ to support forestry-dependent communities, as mills around the province continue to close and curtail production. Today in B.C. The House is adjourned for the summer recess. Committees this week The Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services is conducting public ​ consultations on Budget 2020 this week, starting with a session in Prince Rupert at the Highliner ​ Plaza Hotel and Conference Centre at 2 p.m. today. Committee members will also visit Kitimat, Prince George, Fort St. John and Quesnel before heading back to the Lower Mainland for a consultation in Abbotsford on Thursday. The consultation period ends on June 28. Mill closures and curtailments lead to political jousting As announcements of mill closures and curtailments pile up, the opposition B.C. Liberals are calling on the NDP government to slash stumpage rates and reduce the carbon tax for the province’s forestry sector. “To date, the John Horgan government has thrown up its hands and told forest-dependent ​ ​ communities there is nothing it can do to help them,” Liberal Leader Andrew Wilkinson said in ​ ​ a statement, released in tandem with a letter addressed to the premier last week. “This is failed leadership on the part of John Horgan — plain and simple.

As local MLA’s for the Thompson Regional Hospital District (TRHD) Board several questions have arisen, and we are looking for clarification to be able to provide accurate answers to our constituents. What is the expected operational date for the Cancer Care Centre? Has the planning for the new Cancer Care Centre started? What is the scope of Cancer treatment services that will be provided in the new Centre, and will said scope be inclusive of at least two linear accelerators? Where will the new Cancer Care Centre be located? Is the money for the planning being provided by Interior Health Authority (IHA) or the Ministry of Health? Who will be the lead agency in this project, Ministry of Health, IHA or BC Cancer? Given previous Cancer Centre’s have been a collaboration between the Province and BC Cancer, is this the intended model for the Kamloops Cancer Care Centre? Given previous Cancer Centre’s were not funded by local Hospital Boards, will the TRHD be expected to commit capital dollars or will the new Cancer Care Centre be funded by the Province and BC Cancer? If the intention is to seek capital dollars from the TRHD, what is the contribution expected to be? Will Hospital Foundations be expected to fundraise for the new Cancer Care Centre?

  • BC Veterinarians Need Your Help Combined
    Hello If you wish to help BC veterinarians address the shortage of veterinarians, you may wish to write your local MLA and ask them to support and increase to the number of BC students trained as veterinarians. Below is a sample email for you to send to your local MLA. You can also add to the email or replace it with your own. After the sample email, on page 2 and 3, is a list of all MLA email addresses to help you to find your MLA contact information. Should you wish to learn more about the shortage of veterinarians and the need for additional BC students to be trained as veterinarians, please scroll down to page 4 to read our summary document. Your help is greatly appreciated! Dear MLA, I wish to add my name to the list of British Columbians who find the shortage of veterinarians in BC unacceptable. We understand that BC can add an additional 20 BC student seats to BC’s regional veterinary college, but that the government declined to do so, citing costs. In the interest of animal health and welfare issues including relief from suffering and unnecessary death, public health, and biosecurity for BC, we ask you to ask the Minister of Advanced Education Anne Kang to fund an additional 20 BC seats at WCVM effective immediately. As a BC resident, I want my voice added as an individual who cares about the health and welfare of animals and who wishes the government to provide funding to help alleviate the shortage of veterinarians in BC.
