  • Back in the Tower Again
    MUNICIPAL UPDATE Back In The Tower Again Angela Drennan THE SWEARING IN Toronto City Council was sworn in on December 4, 2018 to a Council Chamber full of family, friends and staff. The new Council is comprised of 25 Members including the Mayor, making it 26 (remember this now means to have an item passed at Council a majority +1 is needed, i.e. 14 votes). Councillor stalwart Frances Nunziata (Ward 5 York South Weston) was re-elected as the Speaker, a position she has held since 2010 and Councillor Shelley Carroll (Ward 17 Don Valley North) was elected as Deputy Speaker. The ceremonial meeting moved through the motions of pomp and circumstance with measured fanfare and Councillors, old and new, looking eager to get down to “real” work the next day during the official first meeting of City Council. Mayor Tory, during his first official address, stressed the need for Council consensus, not dissimilar to the previous term and reiterated his campaign positions on the dedication to build more affordable housing, address gun violence through youth programming and build transit, specifically the downtown relief line. Tory did suggest that the City still needs to take a financially prudent approach to future initiatives, as financial streams such as the land transfer tax have lessened due to a slower real estate market environment, a signal that cuts, reallocations or revenue tools will likely need to be revisited for debate during the term (the uploading of the TTC will help with the City’s financial burden, but isn’t enough). THE MAYOR’S OFFICE There have been some notable staff changes in Mayor John Tory’s Office, here are a few: We say goodbye to Vic Gupta, Tory’s Principal Secretary, who will be greatly missed but we say hello to Vince Gasparro, Liberal, Tory’s Campaign Co-Chair and longtime friend of the firm, who has taken over that position.

Rayna Porter: Today we are creating history. Sandra Klemet- N’guessan: Today we are creating history. Ann-Majella McKelvie: During a moment that has managed to both bring us together and push us apart in shared isolation, we are witnessing and reacting to events never experienced before. Rayna Porter: The unimaginable happened, a highly contagious virus began affecting communities worldwide at first it seemed like a distant worry too far off to really comprehend, until suddenly it was here in Canada, in Ontario and in our communities, Peterborough and Durham region. Then the unprecedented happened the World As We Knew It Started shutting down first, sporting events then, concerts and then businesses and institutions. Sandra Klemet- N’guessan: But this University born of community generosity in 1964 responded to the crisis with that same Community Spirit; donating personal protective equipment, food freezers, and even providing a home away from home for front-line workers. Rayna Porter: Trent students meanwhile showed our resilience, our strength, we persevered, we finished out our classes, we completed our exams, we became the first cohort to finish their education completely online and we should be proud. History will record how we responded to this adversity. Ann- Majella McKelvie: Which is why you are gathered here today, together apart to celebrate you, the graduates of 2020.

    May 18, 2021 Honourable Maryam Monsef Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Rural Economic Development 180 Kent Street, Suite 1100 Ottawa, Ontario K1P 9B6 Honourable Laurie Scott Minister of Infrastructure 777 Bay Street, 5th Floor Toronto, Ontario M7A 2J3 Dear Ministers: We are writing to you today, as heads of our local councils, to express our strong support for EORN’s Gig Project. We stand together with the Chairs of the Eastern Ontario Wardens’ Caucus, the Eastern Ontario Mayors’ Caucus, and the Eastern Ontario Regional Broadband Network in their efforts to urge you to get behind the Project. The Gig Project is the right one for eastern Ontario. It ensures that homes, businesses, schools, medical offices, and other institutions as well as seasonal properties get connected through fibre optic cable - the best technology for today and the future. EORN studies highlight the economic benefits that would come our way with its Gig Project. Job creation, additional employment income, more innovation, reduced health care costs among other things add up to a winning solution for the people of eastern Ontario. The EORN model works. Over the years, we’ve seen EORN successfully get more private sector investment than anticipated in its public private partnership projects. EORN is efficient, cost effective and nimble. You know you can rely on its professionals to get the job done. We appreciate the leadership you have both shown by securing historic levels of funding for building out broadband infrastructure. You have made this critical infrastructure a priority for 1 both Canada and Ontario by together earmarking $7 billion for broadband.

  • Fixing Ontario's Broken Waste System
    FIXING ONTARIO’S BROKEN WASTE SYSTEM 503-460 Richmond St. W T: 416.777.2327 : CleanProsperity.ca Toronto, Ontario F: 416.777.2524 : /cleanprosperity M5V 1Y1 E: [email protected] : @cleanprosperity Wednesday, June 1, 2015 The Honourable Glen Murray Minister of the Environment and Climate Change 11th Floor, Ferguson Block 77 Wellesley Street West Toronto ON M7A 2T5 Re: Planned revisions to the Waste Diversion Act Dear Minister Murray, Thank you to you and your staff for your efforts to fix Ontario’s broken waste management system and to replace the Waste Diversion Act with a system that will increase our diversion rates. Ontario’s economic and ecological realities mean that we need a solution that works for both our economy and environment, simultaneously stimulating growth while curbing waste. The strongest, most powerful forces available to us in that regard are competition and market forces. Just as the Ministry plans to price carbon pollution as a way of driving down waste and incentivizing innovation, so too will charging the full lifecycle costs for products and packaging incentivize better choices. It is our belief that Ontario should learn from the successful use of Individual Producer Responsibility (IPR) in other jurisdictions, to bring forward a system that: makes producers responsible for end-of-life costs and diversion targets; incentivizes competition; and has strong oversight and enforcement. Having worked with leading mayors and councillors on this issue, we recognize the need to ensure municipalities are treated fairly in transition to this new system. Our experience has been that the majority of elected municipal officials we spoke with supported full producer responsibility for both costs and operations, and that few are eager to hold on to the current broken system.
