    2017 Municipal Social Media Survey By now, Ontario municipalities recognize that to get in front of their audiences, they have to be on social media. Municipalities are becoming more creative, sophisticated and engaging on social media. A significant portion of municipal Heads of Council are getting social online, too. Read on for a comprehensive look at how Ontario’s municipalities are using social media. 81% of municipalities are on social media Ontario Municipalities on Social Media 361 Year over year 321 300 2017 271 2016 240 2015 2014 193 2013 127 2012 2011 25 2010 Social Media Use by Channel Which social media channels do municipalities use the most?* 98% 22% 71% 31% 8% From 2016 to 2017, Facebook use grew even more – with almost all social municipalities using it. Twitter use decreased, but still remains prevalent. Instagram began to gain rank as the third most popular channel for municipalities. *Data was gathered by actively searching for Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts for each municipality. Data for YouTube and LinkedIn was recorded when municipalities promoted these channels on their website or through other social media accounts.

Centralized Municipalities with just one main account per social media channel 30% Centralized Mixed Municipalities that use a central account 49% and up to three specialized accounts for Mixed different departments and service areas Decentralized Decentralized Municipalities with four or more accounts 21% dedicated to different departments or service areas In 2017, many municipalities switched from a decentralized or centralized approach to a mixed approach.

Signature of Supervisor /"t�\(� 2-v1 \ Date ABSTRACT Attempts to engage Aboriginal peoples in resource and environmental management decision-making process, fo r the most part, have been characterized as tokenism (Bowie 2007). This has left Aboriginal peoples frustrated and disillusioned. This thesis uses a theory of civil engagement, Arnstein's (1969) ladder of citizen participation, as a framework to interpret the level of Aboriginal consultation conducted during the Ontario Mining Act Modernization (MAM) process. This case study gauged the current state of public participation practices by examining Aboriginal peoples' participation and influence in decision making. In August 2008 the Ontario Ministry of Northern Development Mines and Forests (MNDMF) initiated a consultation process to modernizethe Mining Act.

    OFFICE OF THE MAYOR CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF SAULT STE. MARIE April 24, 2018 SENT VIA EMAIL The Honourable Ahmed D. Hussen Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship House of Commons Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0A6 The Honourable Laura Albanese Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Toronto, Ontario 6th Floor, 400 University Avenue M5G 1S5 Dear Minister Hussen and Minister Albanese, RE: Remedial measures to address immigration imbalance We, the members of Northern Ontario Large Urban Mayors (NOLUM), are reaching out to both of you, the Provincial and Federal Ministers responsible for immigration, regarding the implementation of remedial measures to address Ontario’s immigration imbalance. NOLUM members are calling for the Government of Ontario to partner with the Government of Canada to implement a program similar to the Atlantic Immigration Pilot. Northern Ontario faces challenges very similar to those in Atlantic Canada and even more precarious demographic issues. For instance, according to a report from the Government of Ontario, Ontario Population Projections Update, 2016-2041, the number of children aged 0 to 14 is projected to increase in Ontario, but decline in Northern Ontario and the majority of rural areas are expected to have significantly fewer children by 2041. Meanwhile, Northern Ontario’s share of seniors in the population is expected to increase to over 25% percent in most areas and the general aging of Northern Ontario’s population will result in a projected overall negative natural increase. Additionally, Northern Ontario is experiencing net out-migration, mostly among young adults, which reduces both current and future population growth. These challenges are significant factors in the projected decline of Northern Ontario’s population.
