AVIS DE MOTION DE CENSURE CONFORMÉMENT À L'ARTICLE 43(a) DU RÈGLEMENT |
2. Mr Wildman - Whereas the government has reaffirmed its commitment to both balance the budget and implement a 30% reduction in personal income taxes; and
Whereas economic growth in Ontario is predicted to continue to be weak at 2.3%, much lower than the government's assumptions in the Common Sense Revolution; and
Whereas the current unemployment rate for the province stands at 8.9% and the employment outlook given the low growth rate is expected to continue to weaken over the next year; and
Whereas the cuts to government spending were cited by the witnesses at the Pre-Budget hearings of the Standing Committee on Finance and Economic Affairs as the major contributor to the poor economic performance and loss of jobs; and
Whereas by cutting personal income taxes to capture the tax savings published in the Common Sense Revolution, the government will lose $27.8 billion in revenue by the year 2000; and
Whereas in order to balance the budget as promised in the Common Sense Revolution the government will have to implement further spending cuts, which will affect children, senior citizens, and other vulnerable Ontarians; and
Whereas the cost of such a tax cut, which is to reduce the percentage of basic federal tax by 20 points, will add an extra $16.5 billion to the accumulated debt of the province; and
Whereas fully two-thirds of the value of the tax cut will go to the top 10% of income earners and will do nothing to increase consumer spending; and
Whereas witnesses at the Pre-Budget Committee hearings agreed that the Common Sense Revolution's promise of 725,000 new jobs is unrealistic and unattainable; and
Whereas the government has refused to listen to expert witnesses, the people of the province and has refused to pay attention to the reality of Ontario's economic situation;
Therefore, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 43(a), the House no longer has confidence in the government. March 25, 1996.

PRIVATE MEMBERS' NOTICES OF MOTION |
AVIS DE MOTIONS DES DÉPUTÉS |
2. Mr Tilson - Resolution - Whereas the Liberal Government of Canada has passed Bill C-68, an Act Respecting Firearms and Other Weapons,
and whereas Ontario welcomes real gun control, and supports those portions of Bill C-68 which provide tougher penalties for the criminal use of firearms, new offenses related to firearm smuggling and trafficking, and a ban on para-military weapons,
and whereas existing laws requiring the registration of handguns have done little to reduce the number of crimes committed with hand guns or lower the volume of handguns smuggled into Canada,
And whereas the national gun registration provisions of Bill C-68 will result in a massive misallocation of the limited resources available to law enforcement agencies, with no practical effect on the traffic in illegal firearms, or the use of guns by violent criminals,
And whereas the gun registration provisions of Bill C-68 will take police officers off the street and involve them in bureaucracy rather than fighting crime, and will make the task of real gun control more difficult and dangerous for police officers,
Now be it resolved that the Province of Ontario urge the House of Commons of the Government of Canada to sever from Bill C-68 those provisions for a compulsory registration of all firearms and implement the rest of the bill forthwith, and further, that the House of Commons introduce legislation aimed at real gun control that will include the creation of a national firearm enforcement unit, improve the enforcement of anti-smuggling measures by custom officials at border crossing points, enhance access to the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC) computers for Customs officials, and electronically link Canadian police services with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms in the United States. October 25, 1995.
6. Mr Wood (Cochrane North) - Resolution - That in the opinion of this House, the Government of Ontario should recognize the uniqueness of northern Ontario, and in that recognition restore the funding cuts made to programs and services in the north so that the citizens of the north are provided with equitable services and programs similar to those provided to other areas of the province. November 21, 1995.
10. Debated April 4, 1996.
11. Debated April 4, 1996.
12. Mr Tilson - Resolution - That in the opinion of this House, since the Federal Liberal Government introduced Section 745 to the Criminal Code in 1976; and
since a person convicted of first degree murder is not eligible to apply for parole for 25 years at the time of sentencing; and
since Section 745 says that where an offender has a parole ineligibility period of more than 15 years and the offender has served at least 15 years, or only 60% of their sentence, the offender can apply to the court for a reduction of the parole ineligibility period; and
since CAVEAT, Victims of Violence, the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police, the Canadian Police Association, and the Police Association of Ontario have all called on the Federal Government to immediately repeal Section 745 from the Criminal Code; and
since holding hearings under Section 745 uses precious resources which could be redirected elsewhere to prosecute serious crime; and
since the Federal Government has failed to pass a Private Member's Bill that Liberal backbench Member, John Nunziata of Ontario tabled in the Federal House of Commons in 1991, 1994 and 1995, that calls for the repeal of Section 745; and
since Federal Justice Minister Allan Rock has failed to state definitively that the Federal Government will repeal Section 745 to keep convicted murderers off the streets of our communities;
therefore the Government of Ontario should urge the Government of Canada to repeal Section 745 to ensure that convicted murderers serve their entire sentences and to protect victims, their families and the community. April 2, 1996.
13. Ms Churley - Resolution - That in the opinion of this House, since cancer is one of the leading causes of premature death in Ontario, claiming more than 20,000 lives annually, and since Ontario currently spends in excess of one billion dollars a year on cancer treatment, and since the previous New Democratic Party Government recognized this dire threat and commissioned a task force to advise on ways to effectively stem the rising incidence of this disease, and since the Ontario Task Force on the Primary Prevention of Cancer tabled its report in March 1995, advising the government on an action-based plan for the primary prevention of cancer and the present Conservative government has yet to respond; therefore in order to protect human health, prevent cancer and benefit natural ecosystems; this House calls upon the Government of Ontario to (a) immediately appoint a working Committee consisting of environmental, health, labour, industry, women's, aboriginal and other interested groups; and (b) work with the Committee to establish realistic and measurable timetables for sunsetting persistent, bio-accumulative toxic chemicals that are known or suspected carcinogens as outlined in the report of the Task Force. April 2, 1996.
