SCOPE OF THE PUBLIC ACCOUNTS The 2002-2003 Public Accounts of the Province of Ontario comprise the Annual Report and Financial Statements and three volumes: Volume 1 contains the Consolidated Revenue Fund schedules and Ministry statements. The Consolidated Revenue Fund reflects the financial activities of the government’s ministries on a modified cash basis. Volume 2 contains the financial statements of significant provincial crown corporations, boards and commissions which are part of the government’s reporting entity and other miscellaneous financial statements. Volume 3 contains the details of ministry expenditure and the Ontario Public Service senior salary disclosure. 2. A GUIDE TO VOLUME 3 OF THE PUBLIC ACCOUNTS Details of expenditure are reported under the following categories for each ministry: (1) Voted Appropriations (a) Salaries and Wages Includes the total salaries and wages of those employees on staff. Also listed are temporary help suppliers who received payments accumulating to more than $50,000.

The travelling expenses of Ministers, Parliamentary Assistants and Deputy Ministers are included regardless of amount.

(2) Statutory Appropriations Amounts paid are listed by individual Statutory Appropriations. 5 PUBLIC ACCOUNTS, 2002-2003 7 ONTARIO PUBLIC SECTOR SALARY DISCLOSURE The Public Sector Salary Disclosure Act, 1996 requires employers in the public sector to disclose the names, positions, salaries and taxable benefits of those employees paid $100,000 or more during the previous calendar year. In accordance with the Act, the following information was made publicly available on April 1, 2003 and is provided again as part of the Province’s annual reporting. SALARY - The amount shown as “salary paid” in this compendium may not represent the employee’s annual rate of salary in 2002. The salary required to be made public under the Public Salary Disclosure Act, 1996 reflects the amount to be reported to Revenue Canada on the employer’s T-4 slip for the employee. The “T-4 amounts” may include components that relate to a year prior to 2002. These may result, for example, from retroactive revisions to salary scales, from grievance payments or from vacation pay-outs upon exit from employment. Note also that the “T-4 amounts” may exceed the employee’s annual rate of salary if the employee worked overtime during the year. The “T-4 amounts” may be less than the annual rate of salary if the employee worked only part of a year. TAXABLE BENEFITS - The amount shown as taxable benefits is the amount shown on the T-4 slip as prepared for Revenue Canada. These amounts can include free or subsidized housing, board and lodging, travel in a designated area, personal use of employer’s vehicle, interest free and low-interest loans, stock option benefits (generally not applicable to the public sector), other payments made on behalf of the employee such as relocation costs, employer contributions for basic life insurance and tuition reimbursements.

  • Do Good Intentions Beget Good Policy? Two Steps Forward and One Step Back in the Construction of Domestic Violence in Ontario
    Do Good Intentions Beget Good Policy? Two Steps Forward and One Step Back in the Construction of Domestic Violence in Ontario by April Lucille Girard-Brown A thesis submitted to the Department of Sociology In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen‟s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada January, 2012 Copyright ©April Lucille Girard-Brown, 2012 Abstract The construction of domestic violence shifted and changed as this issue was forced from the private shadows to the public stage. This dissertation explores how government policy initiatives - Bill 117: An Act to Better Protect Victims of Domestic Violence and the Domestic Violence Action Plan (DVAP) - shaped our understanding of domestic violence as a social problem in the first decade of the twenty-first century in Ontario. Specifically, it asks whose voices were heard, whose were silenced, how domestic violence was conceptualized by various stakeholders. In order to do this I analyzed the texts of Bill 117, its debates, the DVAP, as well as fourteen in-depth interviews with anti- violence advocates in Ontario to shed light on their construction of the domestic violence problem. Then I examined who (both state and non-state actors) regarded the work as „successful‟, flawed or wholly ineffective. In particular, I focused on the claims and counter-claims advanced by MPPs, other government officials, feminist or other women‟s group advocates and men‟s or fathers‟ rights group supporters and organizations. The key themes derived from the textual analysis of documents and the interviews encapsulate the key issues which formed the dominant construction of domestic violence in Ontario between 2000 and 2009: the never-ending struggles over funding, debates surrounding issues of rights and responsibilities, solutions proposed to address domestic violence, and finally the continued appearance of deserving and undeserving victims in public policy.

  • Selective Solidarity the Politics of Immigrants' Social Rights in Western
    Selective Solidarity The politics of immigrants’ social rights in Western welfare states By Edward Anthony Koning A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in Political Studies in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada April, 2013 Copyright © Edward Anthony Koning, 2013 ABSTRACT Recent research has cast doubt on the suggestion that immigration weakens the societal foundation of a redistributive welfare state: there is little evidence of a negative relationship between immigration-induced diversity and public support for social programs. This research has largely overlooked, however, that unease about immigration is likely to have a more selective effect on solidarity. In some countries, the public has become less willing to share benefits with newcomers, and policy-makers have acted upon that sentiment, implementing limits and restrictions on immigrants’ welfare access. By combining quantitative data analysis of fourteen countries and a qualitative comparison of the Netherlands, Canada, and Sweden, this research explores when and how such expressions of selective solidarity are most likely to occur. The main findings are threefold. First, there is no evidence that actual patterns of immigrant welfare dependence are an important driver of selective solidarity or immigrant-excluding welfare reforms. Second, more important is how those patterns are politically translated. In the Netherlands, high levels of immigrant welfare dependence are commonly described as a sign that immigrants are lazy welfare cheats. In Canada and Sweden, the discourse is less accusatory and divisive, and attempts at welfare exclusion are consequently rarer. Country characteristics, in particular the political strength of anti-immigrant parties, the nature of national identity, and the structure of the welfare state, explain why the political translation differs between countries.
