  • Letter of Support for Federal Basic Income Pilot Project – March 2021
    March 6, 2021 The Honourable Chrystia Freeland Minister of Finance Deputy Prime Minister of Canada House of Commons OTTAWA, ON K1A 0A6 Via Email: [email protected] Dear Minister: The public were invited to provide ideas for the 2021 federal budget. Diversity Thunder Bay is a volunteer group of individuals and representatives of organizations working toward inclusion and to end racism and discrimination in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Our organization recommends the 2021 Federal budget fund a comprehensive Basic Income Pilot Project. We view a basic income as a fundamental human right for the equitable treatment of all Canadian citizens. Financial insecurity and the cracks in our health and social support systems have been highlighted by the pandemic, however, they were always present. Structural inequalities disproportionately affect vulnerable and marginalized communities, making it more likely for people with disabilities, 2SLGBTQ+, Black, Indigenous, people of color, refugees and immigrants, women, single mothers and many more, to fall into systematic cycles of poverty and poor health. To address inequality entails providing a secure basic standard of living for all. The UN Declaration of Human Rights Article #25 clearly states, “Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself/herself and of his/her family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his/her control.” Thus, it is imperative that the Canadian government strive to enable all of its citizens to have an income that provides an adequate standard of living for each person and each family.

Rempel Garner proposed the health committee (HESA) undertake a study to look at 17 different elements, including rapid, at-home testing; vaccine development; long-term care protocols within federal jurisdiction; the Public Health Agency of Canada ’s Global Public Health Intelligence Network; contact tracing protocol; and Canada’s level of preparedness for future pandemics. The motion also proposed that various ministers, including those for health, procurement and public safety, be required to appear before the committee separately for three hours each in order to answer questions about the government’s response to COVID-19. Rempel Garner’s motion was introduced after opposition members of the committee voted to adjourn the debate on a motion presented by Liberal MP and committee member Tony Van Bynen (Newmarket-Aurora, Ont.), who was calling for a study on the mental health impacts of COVID-19 on Canadians.

  • Chapter 28 Eagle's Nest: a Magmatic Ni-Sulfide Deposit in the James Bay
    © 2010 Society of Economic Geologists, Inc. Special Publication 15, pp. 539–557 Chapter 28 Eagle’s Nest: A Magmatic Ni-Sulfide Deposit in the James Bay Lowlands, Ontario, Canada JAMES E MUNGALL,†,1,2 JOHN D HARVEY,2 STEVEN J BALCH,3 BRONWYN AZAR1,2 JAMES ATKINSON,2 AND MICHAEL A HAMILTON1 1 Department of Geology, University of Toronto, 22 Russell St, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5S 3B1 2 Noront Resources Ltd, 105 Adelaide St West, Ste 110, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5H 1P9 3 Canadian Mining Geophysics Ltd, 11500 Fifth Ln, Rockwood, Ontario, Canada N0B 2K0 Abstract The Eagle’s Nest Ni-Cu-PGE deposit was discovered in the McFaulds Lake area of the James Bay lowlands of northern Ontario, Canada, in 2007 by Noront Resources Ltd. It is a magmatic sulfide deposit hosted by mafic and ultramafic rocks interpreted to be a feeder conduit beneath an extensive complex of sills and related volcanic rocks, which range in composition from dunite through ferrogabbro to rhyolite. The complex, called the Ring of Fire, has been dated at 2734.5 ± 1.0 Ma and it was emplaced into 2773.37 ± 0.9 Ma felsic plutonic rocks. The felsic rocks form a sill complex structurally beneath metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks con- sidered to have formed along a passive margin at ca. 2800 Ma within the Oxford-Stull domain of the North Caribou superterrane in the Archean Superior province. In its original configuration, the Eagle’s Nest deposit formed in a shallowly plunging or subhorizontal keel structure at the base of a dike-like chonolith, but subsequent deformation has turned it into a vertically plung- ing rod of sulfide mineralization along the northwestern margin of a north-south–striking dike.

In addition, the Detailed Project Description reflects the Webequie Supply Road Project Team’s recognition of issues identified in the Summary of Issues prepared by the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (the Agency) as a result of the Agency’s invitation to Indigenous groups, federal and provincial authorities, the public and other participants to provide their perspective on any issues that they consider relevant in relation to the Project. Information provided by the Agency (posted on the Canadian Impact Assessment Registry) for this purpose included the Initial Project Description. The document that was accepted by the Agency to serve as the Initial Project Description was prepared to comply with the requirements of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012 and was initially released for public review under the CEAA, 2012 process in July 2019, during the period when the Government of Canada was preparing to bring into force and transition to the new Impact Assessment Act.

  • 1 Introduction
    Webequie Supply Road Environmental Assessment Draft Terms of Reference 1 Introduction The purpose of this document is to present the Terms of Reference (ToR) for the Webequie First Nation Supply Road Project (“Webequie Supply Road”, “WSR”, “the Project”) to meet the requirements of the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act (EA Act). The ToR is a document that establishes the framework for the planning and decision-making process during the Environmental Assessment (EA) and is submitted by the proponent to the Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) for review and approval. Alongside the ToR document, material to be submitted for the public record includes the Record of Consultation, which is a stand-alone written record that documents the engagement of and consultation with Indigenous (First Nation and Métis) communities, government agencies, the public, and stakeholders during the development of the ToR, including feedback received (comments, concerns, questions) and project team responses. The proposed Webequie Supply Road is a new all-season road of approximately 107 km in length from Webequie First Nation to the mineral deposit area near McFaulds Lake (also referred to as the Ring of Fire). A Location Plan for the Project is shown on Figure 1.1. The preliminary corridor for the road consists of a northwest-southeast segment running 51 km from Webequie First Nation to a 56 km segment running east before terminating near McFaulds Lake. A total of 17 km of the corridor is within Webequie First Nation Reserve lands. Based on the scale and complexity of the Project, and the potential for significant environmental effects, an Individual Environmental Assessment must be completed for approval under the EA Act.
