What I wanted to discuss today Title: Thursday, September 4, 2008 RE was the issue of how the committee wanted to handle the submis- [Mr. Prins in the chair] sions it has received on Bill 23. It’s entirely up to this committee as to how it decides to deal with these submissions and whether it The Chair: Well, good afternoon, everyone. I’d like to call the decides to make them publicly available, and by publicly available meeting of the Standing Committee on Resources and Environment I mean whether the submissions would be available on the commit- to order, seeing that it’s 1 o’clock. What I’ll do is welcome tee’s external website. everybody. It’s good to see everybody back from the summer. I see Now, we all have a general awareness of the principles in the that we have most people back, anyway. What I’ll do is ask Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. I would like everyone to introduce themselves around the table, and for the ones to point out that although the Legislative Assembly Office itself is that are substituting for regular members, just indicate that on the a public body under that act, the Assembly and the committees, record. We’ll start over on this side here with Pearl. technically speaking, are not public bodies, so again it’s up to the committee to determine how it wants to handle its documents.

I would like to just walk you through the different categories of information that may be considered for severing. Last year the Dr. Massolin: Good afternoon. I’m Philip Massolin. I’m the policy field committees approved resolutions that addressed how its committee research co-ordinator, Legislative Assembly Office. submissions would be handled. Again, these aren’t binding precedents, but we would like you to just be aware of what happened Ms Staley: Diana Staley, research officer, Legislative Assembly last year. Office. First, where there was personal information contained in a submission – and by personal information I mean something beyond Ms LeBlanc: Stephanie LeBlanc, legal research officer, Legislative the name of the author of the submission: identifiable information Assembly Office. such as e-mail addresses, phone numbers, street addresses, and so on – it would be our recommendation that this information be severed Mrs. Kamuchik: Louise Kamuchik, Clerk Assistant, director of from the submission before it’s posted on our external site. The House services. reason is that it would just be too readily available in the public domain. Ms Sales: Tracey Sales, communications consultant with the The second category of information that should be given special Legislative Assembly Office. consideration is identifiable information about a third party. Now, with respect to the submissions on Bill 23 I don’t think that that is an Ms Friesacher: Melanie Friesacher, communications consultant issue. It has come up with some of the other committees where with the Legislative Assembly Office. they’re dealing with mental health issues or guardianship issues. Again, if the issue were to come up, we would recommend that the Mr. Griffiths: Doug Griffiths, MLA for Battle River-Wainwright. third-party information be severed because the third party, obvi- ously, has privacy rights. Mr. Berger: Evan Berger, MLA, Livingstone-Macleod. Another situation where information should be severed, in our view, is if the author of the submission has requested that the Mr. Elniski: Doug Elniski, MLA, Edmonton-Calder, filling in for submission not be made public. Diana McQueen. Finally, there are a few other categories. For example, sometimes there is potentially defamatory information in a submission. It Mrs. Sawchuk: Karen Sawchuk, committee clerk. would be prudent not to have this publicly available. It would be our position that the Assembly and the committee are likely protected The Chair: Thank you. I’m Ray Prins, MLA for Lacombe-Ponoka. with respect to any sort of lawsuit surrounding defamation, but it The next thing on our agenda is Approval of Agenda. I think would not be prudent to make public or post potentially defamatory everyone has it in front of them.

Ms Dean: Mr. Chair, given the nature of the submissions that you Before we go on, I believe there’s a member on the telephone line. have before you, I think that the motion that the committee needs to Is that correct? consider is simply giving direction with respect to severing the personal information, and I think that will cover what you need to Mr. Hehr: Yes.

I see none or hear none, so that is Mr. Mason: I have no difficulty with the personal information, but carried. when it comes to drawing the line between, you know, things that Another thing that came up during the time that we were receiving are offensive and things that are not, it raises a question for me, and submissions is that there were a couple of stakeholders that have the question is: who makes the decision? requested an extension to this deadline for the submissions because they missed the deadline, I guess. They’re asking if we could extend The Chair: I guess that’s a good question. Do you have an answer that.

    Toward a National Landscape Conservation Strategy1 Agenda April 16-17, 2009 Lincoln House 113 Brattle Street Cambridge, Massachusetts Purpose of the National Policy Dialogue In response to this growing interest in landscape conservation, the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy and the Center for Natural Resources and Environmental Policy are convening a two-day national policy dialogue to: 1. Clarify the reasons why landscape conservation is imperative as we move into the 21st century; 2. Synthesize what we know about landscape conservation; 3. Clarify the needs, interests, and plans of the Obama Administration along these lines; and 4. Develop a national strategy for large-scale land and water conservation. 1 In this context, landscape conservation refers to the social, economic, and environmental values associated with large-scale landscapes – both land and water ecosystems.

  • Premier Stelmach Sets out Priorities; Names New Cabinet, Reorganizes Portfolios Changes to Government Structure Reflect Government Priorities
    March 12, 2008 Premier Stelmach sets out priorities; names new Cabinet, reorganizes portfolios Changes to government structure reflect government priorities Edmonton... Premier Ed Stelmach has laid out the priorities for his new administration, reorganizing portfolios and adding four new ministries. The Premier also named his new Cabinet which features new faces and new assignments for previous members, and introduces the role of parliamentary assistants who will help support ministers on key projects. "This Cabinet and new government structure will focus on building a stronger Alberta and improving the lives of Albertans,” said Premier Stelmach. “The Cabinet team balances experience and new perspectives and is well skilled for the work ahead.” The new Cabinet will be focused on five priorities: ensuring Alberta’s energy resources are developed in an environmentally sustainable way; increasing access to quality health care and improving the efficiency and effectiveness of health care service delivery; enhancing value-added activity, increasing innovation, and improving the long-run sustainability of Alberta’s economy; reducing crime so Albertans feel safe in their communities; and providing the roads, schools, hospitals and other public infrastructure to meet the needs of a growing economy and population. Changes to the government structure will help better meet these priorities. Government’s increased focus on culture is reflected in the new Ministry of Culture and Community Spirit which also has responsibility for the voluntary sector and the Human Rights Commission. The new Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs will help fulfill government’s plan to ensure affordable housing is available to all Albertans and to address emerging urban issues.

  • Alberta to Better Integrate Oil and Gas Policy and Regulatory System Regulatory Enhancement Task Force Delivers Report to Government
    January 28, 2011 Alberta to better integrate oil and gas policy and regulatory system Regulatory Enhancement Task Force delivers report to government Calgary... Coordinated policy development and an integrated regulatory system for upstream oil and gas highlight a report from the task force established to review Alberta’s regulatory system. “I would like to thank Diana McQueen, Cal Dallas, and Evan Berger for their excellent work,” said Energy Minister Ron Liepert. “Government has accepted the report. The recommendations will now be immediately taken through the appropriate government review process for implementation. Legislation will be introduced this spring to begin implementation of the task force report.” The task force report and recommendations include: Establishing a new Policy Management Office and ensuring integration of natural resource policies; Creating a single oil and gas regulatory body; Providing clear public engagement processes; Using a common approach to risk assessment and management; Adopting performance measures to enable continuous system improvement; and Creating a mechanism to help resolve disputes between landowners and companies, and enforce agreements where required. “To maintain Alberta’s competitiveness the regulatory system must be effective, efficient, adaptable, predictable, fair and transparent,” said task force chair, Parliamentary Assistant for Energy Diana McQueen. “We will not compromise our responsibilities to environmental stewardship and the protection of public safety and public interests.” The review included analyses of all processes in place to develop and ensure compliance with provincial policies around upstream oil and gas development, and extensive engagement of First Nations, the oil and gas industry, and individuals from landowner, municipal, and environmental groups. Between March 31 and October 1, 2010 the task force hosted three rounds of engagement through a series of briefings, meetings, workshops and a forum.

  • 911 Dispatch Issues & Rural EMS Strategies May 14, 2012 Report
    We’re Working On It! 911 Dispatch Issues & Rural EMS Strategies May 14, 2012 Report Dear Residents: This is a report about ongoing cooperative effort which is affecting you! As a result of centralizing ambulance dispatch and challenges which have emerged in service to our residents, a number of people are putting in a lot of effort to work towards solutions, to manage costs, better support our 911 dispatch centres and effect better coordinated responses of ambulance and fire first response. On behalf of the MD of Foothills and our Foothills Regional Emergency Services Commission, I am working with many people who are interested in finding and advocating solutions to these complex matters. Our Foothills Regional Emergency Services Commission (FRESC), who owns and operates our Foothills 911 Call centre, is operating out of the Black Diamond Hospital. We serve 26 Municipalities and 32 Fire Departments in Southern Alberta, including the communities of Okotoks, High River, Turner Valley, Black Diamond, MD of Foothills, and 21 more... Your 911 Calls are answered at this Public Safety Answering Point and are further directed to Calgary PSC for AHS Ambulance – Emergency Medical Services (EMS), to the RCMP dispatch in Red Deer for police service, or if Fire Department response is required, dispatched directly from our location. We receive land line and cell phone calls within our area, and calls that are transferred to us from cell phone or VOIP calls received by other operators but require a response in our area. Although we have experienced some changes from the service we were used to before transition, we continue to work towards affecting the change we need to provide the best service possible to our residents.
