  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

As a dynamic farmer-led organization based in Guelph, Ontario, OFA works to represent and champion the interests of Ontario farmers through government relations, farm policy recommendations, lobby efforts, community representation, media relations and more. OFA is the leading advocate and voice for Ontario farmers. Earlier this year, farmers and rural representatives from the Municipality of Port Hope raised concerns regarding a Renewable Energy Application (REA) planned solar installation scheduled for construction at 6330 Ganaraska Road. They sent the Solar By Stealth report and letters to OMAFRA, MOECC and IESO asking for assistance. As I understand, the Ministry of Energy, along Farms and Food Forever with MOECC, OMAFRA and IESO were to work closely to balance establishing renewable energy projects with protecting farmland and the environment.

  • IJV Submission to Anti-Racism Directorate
    January 31, 2017 Submission by Independent Jewish Voices Canada to the Anti-Racism Directorate Independent Jewish Voices Canada (IJV) is a national human rights organization that promotes a just peace in Israel and Palestine based on the application of international law. We represent progressive Jews in Canada who are deeply concerned with the Israeli state’s ongoing human rights violations. We are troubled by Israel lobby groups in Canada which falsely portray themselves as being representative of a vastly diverse Jewish community, while having no democratic foundation or accountability to community members. The Anti-Racism Directorate (ARD) should not consider the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement as falling under its mandate, since BDS is in no way racist (in fact, it is based entirely on the principles of anti-racism), and in no way signiPies systemic racism in Ontario. The presence of the BDS movement in Ontario could not possibly signify systemic racism emanating from the Ontario government or any governmental institutions’ treatment of Ontario residents, since neither the Ontario government nor any governmental institution participates in the BDS movement. We are confused, therefore, as to why the Ontario government has made repeated references to the ARD when questioned about its handling of the BDS movement. IJV is very concerned about the following issues pertaining to our organizational mandate, which we feel must be addressed by the ARD: 1) The recurrent exclusion of Palestinian, dissenting Jewish, and other human rights-supporting voices by the Ontario government, and repeated defamation and intimidation towards these communities by the Ontario government; 2) The adoption of a discredited and ultimately discriminatory dePinition of antisemitism by the Ontario government.

  • 1 April 28, 2017 the Honourable Glenn Thibeault Minister of Energy
    April 28, 2017 The Honourable Glenn Thibeault Minister of Energy 4th Floor, Hearst Block 900 Bay Street Toronto, Ontario M7A 2E1 Via: [email protected] Re: Supporting Oxford County in the next Long-Term Energy Plan Dear Minister Thibeault, We write to ask you to recognize and support Oxford County’s commitment to fight climate change by going 100% renewable in the next Long-Term Energy Plan (LTEP). Specifically, we ask you instruct the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) and Hydro-One to support Oxford County’s proposed Virtual Net Metering (VNM) demonstration project in the LTEP and affirm your intention to move forward with VNM and third party ownership within the province’s net metering regulation. Oxford County Council has approved investing up to $ 2.5 million in solar installations in its 2017 Business Plan and Budget. On April 12th 2017, Council supported in principle the development of VNM in Oxford County at its landfill facility. The proposed 0.9 MW solar facility would offset demand from municipally-owned facilities at other locations. It would be a step towards Oxford County’s goal of going 100% renewable to fight climate change. With the end of the Feed-In Tariff (FIT) and microFIT programs in 2017, we feel supporting and expediting Oxford County’s municipal VNM demonstration project is vital to ensuring the sustainability of the solar industry and community power in Ontario. In our view, community investment and participation in our energy system is essential for Ontario to successfully transition to a low-carbon society. As witnessed in many American states, VNM has enabled the growth of community-owned solar facilities.

  • Ontario Cycling Strategy, at Corridor Parry Sound to Sudbury, Letter To
    June 11, 2015 Steven Del Duca Minister of Transportation Ministry of Transportation Queen’s Park/Minister’s Office 77 Wellesley Street West Ferguson Block, 3rd Floor Toronto ON M7A 1Z8 Minister Del Duca, RE: Ensuring an Active Transportation corridor between Parry Sound and Sudbury Parry Sound Area Active Transportation Committee is delighted with the recent announcements from the Province to move ahead with implementation of the #CycleON strategy. Specifically, we are delighted that the priority investments for the $15million Provincial Cycling Infrastructure include investments on HWY 17 and HWY 6 on Manitoulin Island as these both support the expansion of the Great Lakes Waterfront Trail to include the Georgian Bay Cycling Route. The completion of this Route will greatly enhance cycling tourism and provide an economic boost to the Parry Sound Area. However, to fully complete the Georgian Bay Cycling Route will require implementing a continuous Active Transportation corridor between Sudbury and Parry Sound. To that end we strongly urge that the MTO: Require that the design for 4-laning HWY 69 between Sudbury and Parry Sound has an active transportation corridor to accommodate pedestrians and cyclists – this corridor is part of the Georgian Bay Cycling Route, a proposed expansion of the Great Lakes Waterfront Trail, but is currently a major gap. MTO has presented two concepts for this corridor, one of which accommodates Active Transportation while the other (labelled the preferred concept) does not. The #CycleON strategy has the potential to transform Active Transportation in the Province. The Great Lakes Waterfront Trail has the support of hundreds of Ontario communities who have invested to become part of the trail network.
