Menard Seconded by Councillor G. Gower WHEREAS the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve and it remains unknown how long we will be dealing with the effects both locally and beyond; WHEREAS workplace spread of Covid-19 has been identified as a key component of community transmission; WHEREAS the federal government has recently introduced a form of sick leave benefit; WHEREAS the provinces govern workplace relations (outside of federal workers) and it is therefore first and foremost the jurisdiction of the provinces regarding access to sick leave benefits for workers; WHEREAS the federal benefit provides less than full wage recovery for days missed with other remaining gaps; WHEREAS these gaps include thresholds for days missed within a week (50%) to be able to apply for and possibly receive the benefit; WHEREAS workers can only apply for the benefit a week after they were sick, and only if they missed half or more of the preceding week; WHEREAS this excludes workers who need only miss two days or less in a week due to COVID-19 scares, or initial COVID-19 caregiving responsibilities; WHEREAS on March 17, 2020, the Government of the Province of Ontario made an order declaring an emergency under Section 7.0.1 (1) the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act, with a view to ensuring that Ontario had available “every power possible to continue to protect the health and safety of all individuals and families”; and WHEREAS the Province of Ontario subsequently issued a number of Orders pursuant to its authority under Section 7.0.1 (1) the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act; and WHEREAS on July 24, 2020, the Ontario Government enacted the Reopening Ontario (A Flexible Response to COVID-19) Act, thereby terminating the Province’s COVID-19 declared emergency but continuing as valid and effective those orders made under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act OTTAWA CITY COUNCIL 7 MINUTES 41 WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 14 2020 that had not otherwise been revoked before June 24, 2020, and also reserving a measure of authority necessary to amend and/or continue those orders; and WHEREAS on August 19, 2020, the Decent Work and Health Care Network issued its report, “BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE: How to Close the Paid Sick Days Gap During COVID-19 and Beyond”; and WHEREAS that report recommended that, “all provincial, territorial and federal jurisdictions update their employment standards to require employers to provide at least 7 days of paid emergency leave on a permanent basis”; and WHEREAS in the context of a global pandemic, and the known risk of workplace spread as a key source of community transmission, it makes sense now more than ever to establish these assurances for workers; THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT Council direct Mayor Watson to write a letter to Ontario Premier Doug Ford and Minister McNaughton requesting that the provincial government work with the federal government to establish seamless job-protected sick leave that allows workers access of up to 10 days leave related to COVID-19.

  • Letter to Premier Ford Reopening of Outdoor
    April 28, 2021 Dear Premier Ford, We are writing to you today to urge the Provincial Government to consider re-opening outdoor recreational activities that can be safely enjoyed in a physically distanced manner, including golf, tennis, and pickle ball. We would also support activities such as basketball, and skateboarding in skate parks, as long as good COVID-19 protocols are in place, such as physical distancing and mask wearing. The pandemic has stretched on for over a year now, and the residents of Ottawa are looking for safe ways that they can get outdoors to be physically active, and to maintain their mental health and wellbeing. The Stay-At-Home Order, and the necessary expansion of restrictions required to protect the health of our communities is not in question, and we are equally concerned about the current state of the pandemic, including the variants of concern which are taking a hold in our community. We also appreciate that the province is operating in a very challenging and ever- changing environment. Our concerns revolve around removing the few remaining safe ways that people can be active outdoors, in a physically distanced way. Activities such as golf, tennis, and pickle ball, all lend themselves to physical distancing. When distancing requirements are adhered to, these types of outdoor activities can be a safe way for people to enjoy public spaces during the pandemic. Golf courses in the Ottawa area have also gone to great lengths to introduce additional measures to ensure the safety of their guests. These include requiring golfers to remain in their vehicles until their tee time and removing the rakes from sand pits.

    2021-2022 Forecast Capital Construction - AAC (Long List) The list below shows a selection of capital construction projects for 2021/2022 in which the City of Ottawa Accessibility Design Standards will be applied to the greatest extent possible. Many of these projects contain exterior paths of travel for which the potention provision and placement of a rest area will be decided in the upcoming design phase of the project based on numerous factors, such as the results of the consultation, available space, property requirements, location of transit stops, and volume of pedestrian traffic. If a rest area is to be provided on an individual project, its design would follow the Accessibility Design Standards. Many of the projects listed have existing on-street parking areas which are available to Accessible Parking Permit holders.

  • Catherine Kitts Langues Parlées : Français, Anglais Candidature À Une Autre Élection : Municipale Site Internet
    En vue des élections partielles municipales du 5 octobre 2020, l’Association des communautés francophones d’Ottawa (ACFO Ottawa) a entrepris de sonder l’opinion des candidates et des candidats pour permettre à la communauté francophone d’Ottawa de faire des choix avisés lors du scrutin . Vous trouverez ci-dessous les réponses des différents candidat.e.s. Les candidat.e.s sont présenté.e.s en ordre alphabétique. Catherine Kitts Langues parlées : Français, Anglais Candidature à une autre élection : municipale Site Internet : https://fr.catherinekitts.ca/ Quelles sont les principales raisons qui vous ont incité à être candidate ou candidat aux élections municipales partielles de Cumberland ? J’ai vécu ici dans l'est de la ville toute ma vie. J'ai grandi à Orléans dans un foyer bilingue. Ma mère est franco-ontarienne et je crédite ma fibre franco-ontarienne pour une éthique de travail infatigable. Mes expériences personnelles et professionnelles, notamment mon expérience en tant que rédactrice en chef du journal Orléans Star, m’ont rendu extrêmement bien renseignée sur les enjeux de l'est de la ville. C’est ce qui m'a poussée, notamment, à me présenter aux élections municipales de 2018 dans le quartier d'Orléans (Quartier 1), où j'habitais à l'époque. Depuis lors, mon partenaire et moi avons déménagé à Navan. Sa famille sont agriculteurs dans la région depuis les années cinquante. Dès que la campagne fut annoncée, mon téléphone se mit à sonner, des membres de la communauté m'encourageant à me présenter à nouveau. Cette fois, pour représenter le quartier de Cumberland, croyant que, en raison de ce vécu dans l'est d'Ottawa, dans la banlieue comme dans les zones rurales, je suis bien placée pour représenter les valeurs du quartier tout entier.
