Council Member Inquiry/Motion Form Demande de renseignements d’un membre du Conseil /Formulaire de motion
From/Exp. : Councillor C. Doucet	Date : August 28, 2008	File/Dossier : 31-08
To/Dest. : Executive Director, Business Transformation Services
Subject/Objet : Lansdowne Military Trade Show
Inquiry/Demande de renseignements Motion Does the 1989 motion, banning arms shows from City of Ottawa facilities, apply to any facilities other than Lansdowne Park? If so, does the motion apply to all facilities of the current City of Ottawa excluding Lansdowne Park (including all amalgamated municipalities) or to all facilities of the former City of Ottawa excluding Lansdowne? Is Lansdowne Park the only property for which arms shows are now allowed? Was Council informed at the time of the sale of Lansdowne by the City of Ottawa to the Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton that the motion banning arms shows would no longer apply? When amalgamation took place and by-laws were harmonized, were Councillors presented the opportunity to consider the need to reinstate the previous motion? If Council was not informed on either of these occasions, why not? Why is the City of Ottawa logo on the Secure Canada website for their military trade show? Is the City of Ottawa a sponsor for the show and what form has this sponsorship taken? On what authority is the use of our logo and sponsorship granted?
