(Bob) Bratina Mayor City of Hamilton 71 Main Street West, 2nd Floor Hamilton ON L8P 4Y5 Dear Mayor Bratina! The Honourable Kathleen Wynne, Premier of Ontario, has forwarded your correspondence of September 27, 2013, about a City of Hamilton council motion that requests copies of past provincial funding agreements for the purchase of conducted energy weapons (CEWs) and the training of sworn personnel. I am also responding to your correspondence dated October 24,2013, addressed to Premier Wynne and me, regarding funding for CEWs and public consultation on CEW use. While I do appreciate your inquiry about provincial funding agreements, the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services does not have the records you are seeking. Police services are responsible for purchasing CEWs and other equipment their officers use. The ministry is confident that police, services will make decisions that are fiscally feasible and in the best interests of their communities.. Similarly, the ministry is not providing funding to police services for the purchase of CEWs or for training on the use of CEWs. To support the delivery of in-service CEW training, the ministry has issued standards for all levels of CEW training, including standards for users, trainers, requalification training, familiarization training, trainer re-certification, and Instructor Trainers. In addition, the Ontario Police College offers an Instructor Trainer Course and provides training materials to CEW trainers. Police services that do not have their own training facilities or resources can make arrangements with another police service to deliver the necessary training required by the ministry. Lastly, the ministry strongly encourages police services boards to invite input from their local community regarding any plans to expand the use of CEWs. I am confident that police services boards will determine the best way in which to capture that input, as they decide on whether to develop local policy. Thankyou for bringing City Council's requests to our attention.

  • Policing and Surveilling the Black Community in Toronto, Canada, 1992-2016
    From the Yonge Street Riot to the Carding Controversy: Policing and Surveilling the Black Community in Toronto, Canada, 1992-2016 By Maria Kyres A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Program in Cultural Studies in Conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada September, 2017 Copyright © Maria Kyres Abstract In the last decade, the conversation surrounding racial profiling and carding in the city of Toronto garnered much public and scholarly attention. Many journalists, academics and activists have examined the Community Contacts Policy, also known as carding, as well as mass incarceration and the police shootings and killings of unarmed, young Black men. The Yonge Street Uprising and the carding controversy in Toronto serve as two case studies to explore the ways that Black men have been disproportionately profiled, policed and surveilled in this country, particularly in the province of Ontario. Despite the fact that the Yonge Street Uprising and the carding controversy occurred decades apart, a common thread throughout both cases was the narrative of Black male criminality. In addition, it became apparent that many of the practices employed in contemporary society, such as racial profiling, carding and mass incarceration were derived from slavery, with the goal of limiting the freedom and mobility of Black people. Therefore, an examination of Canada’s historical treatment of Black people is necessary in order to demonstrate how practices rooted in slavery, such as, fugitive slave advertisements and historical representations of Black criminality helped inform current police practices. Through an analysis of historical, legal, criminological, and critical race scholarship, this work seeks to examine how and why Black people, specifically Black men, were and continue to be disproportionately more likely to be policed, surveilled and incarcerated.

  • Hudak Headed for Majority in Ontario: Poll
    Hudak headed for majority in Ontario: poll Peter Kuitenbrouwer | Jun 26, 2011 – 4:35 PM ET | Last Updated: Jun 26, 2011 5:17 PM ET Tim Hudak’s Progressive Conservatives are heading to a majority government in the Ontario election on Oct.6, a new poll by Forum Research suggests. The poll of 3,198 people, a large sample size, suggests that 41% of Ontario voters will vote for the PCs, 26% support the reigning Liberal Party, 22% want the NDP to win, and 8% back the Green Party. The poll found the Tories and Liberals neck-in-neck in Toronto, whereas in Eastern Ontario 50% support the Tories compared to just 25% for the Liberals in that region. Lorne Bozinoff, president of Forum Research, said Sunday that, although the election is still over three months away, much of that is during the sleepy summer months, giving the Liberals precious little time to make up the wide gap in voter preference. “We did learn from a couple of months ago [in the federal election] that campaigns do matter,” Mr. Bozinoff said. “Nobody predicted what happened with the NDP. Still, it’s hard to see how the Ontario Liberals are going to gain traction if they release their platform in the summer.” He said the poll, conducted last Tuesday and Wednesday, suggests that conservatism in Ontario is “the new norm,” with the provincial intentions mimicking strong support for Rob Ford in Toronto and for Conservatives federally. The poll suggests the Liberals will get their clocks cleaned in greater Toronto, losing 16 of their 905 seats and 11 of the seats they hold in the 416.

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.
