EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Explanatory Note was written as a reader’s aid to Bill 177 and does not form part of the law.  Bill 177 has been enacted as Chapter 17 of the Statutes of Ontario, 2002.

The Bill amends numerous Acts to make them consistent with the new Municipal Act, 2001 which comes into force on January 1, 2003.  The majority of the changes involve terminology or updating cross-references to refer to the relevant provisions in the new Act.  Most of the amendments are set out in Table form in Schedule F.  Amendments that did not lend themselves to table form, either because of their length, complexity or the fact that they relate to provisions that are not yet in force, are set out in Schedule A (amending the Municipal Act, 2001), Schedule B (amending the Planning Act) and Schedule C (other amendments).  For instance, the extensive amendments to the old Municipal Act made by the Responsible Choices for Growth and Fiscal Responsibility Act (Budget Measures), 2001 have been incorporated into the new Municipal Act, 2001.

Schedule D amends the Municipal Elections Act, 1996 in respect of election administration, eligibility to vote and run in an election and election finances.  A number of the amendments are of a minor nature to clarify existing provisions. For example, “voting place” is defined for the purpose of displaying campaign material (section 18).

Amendments made to the administrative procedures of an election include,

  (a)  providing for a deadline of September 1 for submission of referendum questions (section 3);

  (b)  extending the time between nomination day and voting day from 31 to 45 days (section 10);

  (c)  requiring condominium corporations managing buildings with 100 or more units to provide voting space if requested (subsection 16 (2));

  (d)  increasing the time for a recount in certain cases from 10 to 15 days (sections 20, 21 and 22).

Amendments made in respect of eligibility to vote and run in an election include,

  (a)  defining “owner or tenant”, in relation to an election, to include persons entitled to use the land under a time share contract if they meet certain criteria (subsection 1 (1));

  (b)  clarifying that proof of citizenship and residency may be required by the clerk responsible for conducting an election (section 4);

  (c)  requiring municipal employees to take a leave of absence without pay once they are nominated to run for council (section 9).

Amendments made in respect of election finances include,

  (a)  requiring records of election expenses to be kept by the candidate for a period of three years (subsection 26 (2));

  (b)  enabling municipal council to allow electronic filing of financial returns (subsection 29 (4));

  (c)  allowing municipal council to appoint a committee to stand in the place of council in respect of applications for a compliance audit and allowing an appeal to the court from the decision of the council or committee (section 32).

Amendments are made to the Education Act in Schedule D to parallel or reflect the changes made to the Municipal Elections Act, 1996.

The Bill also revises the Territorial Division Act.  The new Act is set out in Schedule E. The names and descriptions of the geographic divisions, which are now set out in the Act, would be prescribed by regulation under the new Act.
