Communications
1. The Honourable Claudette Bradshaw, Minister of Labour, regarding Regional Council’s motion on the Supporting Communities Partnership Initiative. A copy of the Progress Report on the Action Plan to Prevent and End Homelessness in Ottawa-Carleton was forwarded to the National Secretariat on Homelessness for further review.
She stated that the government will provide up to $10 million worth of surplus federal properties to communities for homelessness projects. This initiative is intended to assist non-profit organizations and other levels of government in communities where federal properties are available. Officials from HRDC, Public Works and Government Services Canada and CMHC are working together to develop the framework to transfer surplus federal property to organizations helping homeless people. Communities with a demonstrable homeless population that have a proposal supported by a community plan are eligible to apply for surplus federal property at less than market value.
2. Cameron Summers, Special Assistant – Ontario, on behalf of the Honourable David M. Collenette, Minister of Transport, with respect to the Regional Council report regarding the establishment of standards for the manufacture, sale and use of effective mufflers for motorcycles.
He explained that under the Motor Vehicle Safety Act, Transport Canada develops and enforces the Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations. While motor vehicle manufacturers and importers are subject to federal law, vehicle drivers and owners are regulated provincially. The Federal Government has no legal authority to control provincial motor vehicle and road transportation policies.
He further explained that the Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations, Schedule V.1, "Noise Emissions" requires every new motorcycle offered for sale in Canada to meet stringent maximum noise levels. He also stated that the Federal Government does not regulate replacement motorcycle mufflers – this falls under the jurisdiction of the provinces and territories through the highway traffic acts and that municipalities are responsible for setting local noise by-laws.
3. Robert Fry, Senior Policy Advisor, on behalf of the Honourable Sheila Copps, Minister of Canadian Heritage, acknowledging Council’s resolution regarding recent operational and organizational changes within the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC).
He stated that on May 29, 2000, the CBC announced that its Board of Directors had approved a plan that will transform its English television network and increase its commitment to public service television. The plan will offer new supper hour programming consisting of 30 minutes of national news and 30 minutes of local news.
He stated that while the Department of Canadian Heritage is responsible for overall broadcasting policy and legislation, the CBC operates independently of the Government under a framework provided in the Broadcasting Act. As an autonomous Crown corporation, its Board of Directors and senior management are responsible for decisions regarding the day-to-day management of its operations.
4. David Pratt, M.P., Nepean-Carleton, acknowledging Council’s resolution regarding recent operational and organizational changes within the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC).
He stated that the CBC is an independent Crown corporation which operates at arm’s length from the Government, under the Broadcasting Act. The managing of the CBC on a daily basis, therefore, is up to its directors and president. The Liberal Government respects the Board’s decisions and fully expects the CBC to continue to meet its responsibilities as Canada’s national public broadcaster.
5. Association of Municipalities of Ontario providing Council with municipal alerts/communiqués on the following:
+ Provinces Announces Three Year Pause in Expansion of Casinos
+ OMAFRA Issues Directive Relating to Agricultural Operations
+ AMO’s Municipal Action Plan for Water
* COMMUNICATIONS HELD ON FILE WITH THE REGIONAL CLERK.
