Master's Research Paper Officers of the Assembly and the Ontario
Master's Research Paper Officers of the Assembly and the Ontario Legislature: Reconsidering the Relationship Jocelyn McCauley Student Number: 216280703 Dr. Peter P. Constantinou A Master's Research Paper submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Public Policy, Administration and Law York University Toronto, Ontario, Canada July 2020 Abstract Officers of Parliament, or as they are referred to in Ontario, “officers of the Assembly”, have emerged within Westminster systems as a recognized tool for enhancing parliamentary oversight and increasing transparency in government. However, in Ontario, the absence of a clearly defined relationship with the provincial legislature has meant that certain officers of the Assembly have felt it necessary to “lobby” individual members and committees, as well as the media, in order to carry out their accountability and oversight functions. This lack of clarity places unnecessary stress on the relationship between independent officers, the Ontario Legislature, and the public sector, and can also negatively impact the public’s perception of government overall. This paper looks specifically at the relationship between the Ontario Legislature and officers of the Assembly, in terms of their governance structures, their appearances in legislative committees, and references to their work in House and committee proceedings. It finds that reforms are needed in order to strengthen officers’ relationships with the Legislature. Independent officers possess few powers of enforcement and as such, strong ties to the Assembly are necessary to ensure that recommended action is taken by legislators defend public trust and dollars. 2 Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. -

White Paper on Francophone Arts and Culture in Ontario Arts and Culture
FRANCOPHONE ARTS AND CULTURE IN ONTARIO White Paper JUNE 2017 TABLE OF CONTENTS SUMMARY 05 BACKGROUND 06 STATE OF THE FIELD 09 STRATEGIC ISSUES AND PRIORITY 16 RECOMMANDATIONS CONCLUSION 35 ANNEXE 1: RECOMMANDATIONS 36 AND COURSES OF ACTION ARTS AND CULTURE SUMMARY Ontario’s Francophone arts and culture sector includes a significant number of artists and arts and culture organizations, working throughout the province. These stakeholders are active in a wide range of artistic disciplines, directly contribute to the province’s cultural development, allow Ontarians to take part in fulfilling artistic and cultural experiences, and work on the frontlines to ensure the vitality of Ontario’s Francophone communities. This network has considerably diversified and specialized itself over the years, so much so that it now makes up one of the most elaborate cultural ecosystems in all of French Canada. However, public funding supporting this sector has been stagnant for years, and the province’s cultural strategy barely takes Francophones into account. While certain artists and arts organizations have become ambassadors for Ontario throughout the country and the world, many others continue to work in the shadows under appalling conditions. Cultural development, especially, is currently the responsibility of no specific department or agency of the provincial government. This means that organizations and actors that increase the quality of life and contribute directly to the local economy have difficulty securing recognition or significant support from the province. This White Paper, drawn from ten regional consultations held throughout the province in the fall of 2016, examines the current state of Francophone arts and culture in Ontario, and identifies five key issues. -
Redefining Public Art in Toronto — Vision and Recommendations
Thus in contrast to Toronto, public art in Montreal is a core municipal and provincial service. Dedicated budgets, a compulsory per cent for art program, and ample staff provide resources for the city to integrate public art into the texture and fabric of urban experience and to experiment with both traditional and novel approaches to doing so. Figure 29. BGL, La vélocité des lieux, 2015. Crédit photo/photo credit: Guy L'Heureux, 2015. 88 In 2017, Montreal is celebrating Canada 150 (as is Toronto), the 375th anniversary of the founding of Montreal, and the 50th anniversary of Expo 67. While Canada 150 is generating a good amount of programming in both cities, it is not resulting in many public art projects in Toronto. In Montreal, however, Canada 150 and that city’s 375th anniversary celebrations have generated a good number of public art projects, such as La Balade pour la Paix, among others. There is a conscious effort by the City of Montreal to use the 375th anniversary as a platform for public art to generate international prestige. Key findings This section summarizes some of the main findings of our research. I. Collaboration between stakeholders While BAP and MCC are the two major public art stakeholders in Montreal, they operate alongside and in collaboration with other public institutions. These strong collaborative relationships are a crucial part of Montreal’s successful public art initiatives. Currently, there are two important clusters of collaboration between museums, universities, and the City. • Zone Éducation-Culture is a forthcoming public art hub on Bishop Street, a zone shared by the Quartier du Musée and the Quartier Concordia in the Ville-Marie borough. -
Public Sector Digest INTELLIGENCE for the PUBLIC SECTOR
Public sector digest INTELLIGENCE FOR THE PUBLIC SECTOR. THE OMBUDSMAN: ‘SCARY FUNCTIONARY’ OR SILENT GUARDIAN? TYLER SUTTON, PSD RESEARCH DECEMBER 2012 www.publicsectordigest.com © 2012 PUBLIC SECTOR DIGEST PROCESSES & MEASUREMENT THE OMBUDSMAN: ‘SCARY FUNCTIONARY’ OR SILENT GUARDIAN? TYLER SUTTON, PSD RESEARCH The Ombudsman of Ontario is first and foremost an Officer of the Provincial Legislature. The Ombudsman is independent of both government and political parties, and is responsible for ensuring that the administration of provincial government services has proper oversight. The word ‘ombudsman’ has its origins in an Old Norse word meaning ‘representative of the people’. The official role of an ombudsman was first adopted in the early 18th Century by King Charles XII of Sweden. The Swedish King was frequently abroad fighting wars and needed a trusted officer back home to ensure that his rules were being followed by government workers, judges and the military. Today, an ombudsman exists in most large organizations, working to strengthen accountability, and to provide a voice for the individuals or citizens that count on the services provided by these organizations. Mr. André Marin has been the Ontario ombudsman since 2005, having been reappointed for a second five-year term in 2010. Since taking office, Mr. Marin has introduced several changes to his own administration and has led the charge to improve the effectiveness and visibility of his office’s oversight of one area of government in particular: municipal council meetings. PUBLIC SECTOR DIGEST | DECEMBER 2012 THE OMBUDSMAN OF ONTARIO In Ontario, the Ombudsman’s powers are bestowed upon him by the legislation contained in the Ombudsman Act.
