Government of Canada Canada’s Memorial on Jurisdiction September 21, 2020 I. INTRODUCTION 1. Tennant Energy, LLC (“Tennant” or the “Claimant”) is seeking to arbitrate a claim against the Government of Canada under NAFTA Chapter Eleven for an alleged breach of Article 1105. However, in doing so, the Claimant has completely disregarded the conditions precedent to Canada’s consent to arbitration. The NAFTA Parties only offered their consent to arbitrate certain investment disputes. Their consent is neither universal nor unconditional. The NAFTA Parties conditioned their consent on a claimant following certain procedures and meeting the specific requirements set out in Articles 1116 to 1121 when submitting a claim to arbitration. These conditions precedent to each Party’s consent are a fundamental part of the agreement reached by the NAFTA Parties, and they cannot be ignored or simply set aside because they prove inconvenient to a potential claimant. 2. The Claimant has spent almost 250 pages laying out its claim, yet its claim is quite simple. The Claimant is asking this Tribunal to award it damages because it failed to receive a Feed-in Tariff contract (“FIT Contract”) in 2011. It bases its claim on three groups of measures that together result in an alleged breach of NAFTA Article 1105. First, measures arising out of the Green Energy Investment Agreement (“GEIA”) signed between the Government of Ontario (the “Government” or “Ontario”),

    HARM REDUCTION AND SUBSTANCE USE: EXAMINING THE POLITICS AND POLICY IMPACTS Yuna C. Kim A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Public Policy. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Krista M. Perreira Christine P. Durrance Daniel P. Gitterman Jeremy G. Moulton Jonathan Oberlander © 2016 Yuna C. Kim ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Yuna C. Kim: Harm Reduction and Substance Use: Examining the Politics and Policy Impacts (Under the direction of Krista M. Perreira) This dissertation evaluates the impacts and political dynamics of harm reduction policies concerning substance use in North America. In doing so, this three-essay dissertation focuses on two substance use policies: medical marijuana laws (MMLs) and supervised injection services (SISs). The first two essays evaluate the unintended impacts that result from the implementation of MMLs in the U.S. The first essay evaluates the impact of state-level MML implementation and specific policy dimensions (i.e., dispensaries, patient registries, and in-home cultivation) in the U.S. on non-drug related arrest rates and crime rates for violent and property crimes. The second essay analyzes the effect of each MML policy dimension on the probability of cigarette smoking among U.S. adults. Considered together, these two essays highlight various unintended downstream impacts that need to be taken into consideration as policymakers adopt and implement MMLs. The third essay is a political evaluation of the barriers to adopting SISs in North America. The dearth of SISs in North America is puzzling considering the wealth of evidence suggesting their effectiveness in preventing overdoses and connecting injection drug users with treatment resources.

  • Focus on Finance Victor Fedeli, Mpp Official Opposition Finance Critic
    A little bit about Victor Fedeli ... Victor Fedeli is a life-long entrepreneur, specializing in communications. He opened his first company in 1978 and grew the firm into a wildly-successful full-service marketing company. In 1989, his Fedeli Corporation was named 34th in the 50 Best Places to Work in Canada! In 2003, Vic successfully ran for Mayor of the City of North Bay, and served two terms. Few people get an opportunity to re-shape a City, and Vic took great advantage of his opportunity while Mayor. Simply put, he and his wonderful team of Councillors restored hope and restored solvency. In 2011 Vic was elected as MPP for Nipissing. He was named Official Opposition Energy Critic, eventually heading up the Gas Plant Scandal Hearings. After serving two years, he was named Finance Critic. FOCUS ON FINANCE 4 In this role, Vic began publishing Fedeli Focus on Finance, a monthly series of newsletters offering an in-depth look into the finances of Ontario. His shocking revelations – through once-confidential internal government documents released in the Gas Plant Scandal Hearings – are what prompted the writing of the first Focus book. As witnessed throughout the pages of this 4th book, the documents are still revealing startling facts about the inner workings of the government. | A LOOK INTO ONTARIO’S FINANCES MPP Victor Fedeli joins Official Opposition Leader Patrick Brown in the Queen’s Park Media Studio, as Patrick answers a reporter’s question.

  • Working Paper: Do Not Cite Or Quote Without Permission Competing
    Working Paper: Do Not Cite or Quote without Permission Competing Paradigms, Policy Windows and the Search for Sustainability in Ontario Electricity Policy. Mark Winfield and Becky MacWhirter Faculty of Environmental Studies York University, Toronto Canada The design and role of Ontario’s electricity system have been central elements of debates about the province’s economy and environment since the system’s origins at the beginning of the Twentieth Century. Although electricity accounts for only one quarter of the province’s total energy consumption, questions around the generation, distribution and conservation of electrical energy dominate the Ontario’s energy policy discourse (Joshi, 2012). The scale of Ontario’s electricity system is substantial. The province plans expenditures in the range of $87 billion over the next thirty years on its maintenance and expansion (Ministry of Energy, 2010), a level of investment comparable to that anticipated in the development of Alberta’s oil sands.1 The consequences of the decisions made about the Ontario system’s direction are of no less economic, social and environmental importance to Canada’s future.2 For the first seventy years of their existence, the institutions and policies that defined the province’s electricity system operated in an environment of relative stability. In contrast, the past three decades have been characterized by growing instability. Since the late 1970s Ontario has moved through a succession of apparently contradictory policy models: supply planning; “soft” energy paths and integrated resource planning; a “market” model; a “hybrid” model combining market and planning elements; a renewable energy paradigm centred around the 2009 Green Energy and Green 1 The Government of Alberta currently estimates domestic and international investment commitments to the oil sands in the range of $100 billion (Alberta, 2012) 2 Total installed generating capacity in Ontario as of 2011 was 35,858MW.

Synopsis The Peel District School Board is one of Canada’s largest public school boards with more than 153,000 students in 242 schools. We serve 1.3 million residents in three municipalities in the Region of Peel, located immediately west of Toronto. In the past two years, the board has seen an overall decline in student enrolment. With education funding in Ontario provided on a per student basis, a key priority for the organization is to attract and retain new students – starting in kindergarten. In September 2010, Ontario's Ministry of Education implemented a five-year plan to bring full-day kindergarten programming for four- and five-year-old students to all elementary schools. The 2014-15 school year marks the final phase of implementation and the first year that the program will be available to all kindergarten students in Peel. In September 2014, 51 schools, more than 25 per cent of the board’s total elementary schools, will add full-day kindergarten classes with approximately 35,000 four- and five- year-old students enrolled across the system.

Heinz. Kellogg’s. Caterpillar. These are all companies that recently announced they’re shutting their Ontario operations and heading for greener pastures. Oh, they’re still making ketchup, cereal, and earth moving equipment. They’re just not making them in Ontario. With Ontario boasting amongst the highest energy prices in North America, the highest payroll taxes in Canada, 87 consecutive months with unemployment higher than the national average, and a government about to raise corporate taxes, is it any wonder companies are abandoning Ontario in record numbers? In addition, other companies are bypassing Ontario, as they search for a place to set up shop. What happened to this once-powerful province; the envy of all Canada? Ontario, once the economic engine of Confederation, has become a ‘have-not’ province, relying on equalization payments from the federal Government.
