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.
14. Mr Silipo - Resolution - That in the opinion of this House, since there is a significant and growing sense of cynicism and alienation toward the political process of Ontario and it is to the benefit of all to restore the relevance of government in people's lives; and
since the present system does little to address the growing cynicism among the electorate towards the political process; and
since the fairest and most democratic system of election is one which results in the composition of the Legislature reflecting as closely as possible the preferences of the electorate; and
since the present "first past the post" system of electing members to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario does not mirror the voters' preferences adequately, usually resulting in majority governments being formed by a party receiving a minority of voter support; and
since the present legislative system grants little constructive role to the opposition parties although they usually represent a majority of voters' preferences; and
since the Mike Harris government is committed to introducing legislation to change the electoral system by reducing the number of MPPs in the Legislative Assembly and this will provide an opportunity to review the entire electoral system to make it more democratic;
therefore, as one major part of reforming the electoral system of Ontario,
a) members of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario should be elected by a system of proportional representation which would better reflect the wishes of the voters and promote better representation of women and the diversity of Ontario in the Legislature; and
b) this system should be applied on a regional basis to maintain the appropriate balances between urban and rural Ontario; and
c) the Legislative Assembly Committee should examine the various possible models of proportional representation which could be applied to Ontario; and
d) the Legislative Assembly Committee should report back to the Legislative Assembly with one or more models of proportional representation for Ontario which could be incorporated by the government into the legislative changes required to reform the electoral system. April 9, 1996.
15. Mr Colle - Resolution - That in the opinion of this House, since the roads in this province constitute a $100 billion asset; and that the Ministry of Transportation is responsible for the construction and maintenance of the provincial highway system which consists of about 22,000 kilometres of roadway; and
since the 1995 Annual Report the Provincial Auditor has concluded that 60% of highways are currently considered to be in poor or substandard condition; and that if immediate actions are not taken to repair highways the condition of the infrastructure will continue to deteriorate to the point that a massive and costly reconstruction effort will become necessary; and
since the average cost of rehabilitation is estimated at $80,000 per kilometre lane but if not implemented immediately the reconstruction cost per kilometre lane escalates to $250,000 per kilometre lane; and that poorly maintained roads jeopardize the safety of motorists and increase the number of accidents resulting in higher repair and insurance costs; and
since representatives for the Ontario Road Builders' Association who appeared before the Finance Committee earlier this year told committee members that since this government came into power no money has been spent on the roads and highways in the province thus increasing the deterioration of roads; and that provincial cuts to the road maintenance and repair budget mean increased costs for future road reconstruction; and
since the Provincial Government is transferring thousands of kilometres of provincial roads to municipalities which in addition have had their provincial operating grants drastically cut; and that a comprehensive long-term government investment strategy in road maintenance and repair will maintain and encourage economic growth and commerce in communities across Ontario and can readily be undertaken by a highly trained and highly skilled local workforce;
therefore, the Government of Ontario should immediately establish a Road Maintenance and Reconstruction Fund whereby the government guarantees that a fixed portion of the gas tax along with other government revenues be designated to go directly toward the Road Maintenance and Reconstruction Fund for road maintenance, repair and reconstruction in order to systematically eradicate the existing substandard condition of 60% of provincial roads. April 16, 1996.
16. Mr Clement - Resolution - That in the opinion of this House, since Ontarians are entitled to high levels of service from the public sector; and
since Ontarians sent a clear message in the June election that the status quo is not acceptable and called for a government committed to driving substantive reforms in the delivery of public services; and
since the Progressive Conservative government has already taken steps to respond to this message by reviewing all public expenditures; and
since it is important that this process does not neglect the needs of Ontarians and should include the establishment of guiding principles within the public service that will ensure that it is responsive to the public's expectations;
therefore, in order to provide Ontarians with a better, more accountable and more responsive public service, the Chair of the Management Board should investigate the establishment of a mechanism to ensure that the following principles and standards are adopted by the government of Ontario;
a) measurable standards need to be established whereby the public as consumers of public services can assess how services are delivered on a regular basis;
b) information needs to be readily available to the public that will allow them to understand what services cost, who is in charge and how they can benefit from the service;
c) the public must be consulted on a regular basis to ensure that the service is still achieving its desired objectives and continues to be a service which the public sector should be providing;
d) the public's needs must be paramount in determining how to deliver a service;
e) the public must be treated equally and with dignity and respect;
f) the public must have access to a system of redress whereby the government must accept the responsibility for the delivery of services in an appropriate manner; and
g) the taxpayer must be protected by ensuring that government services are delivered in an efficient and economic manner within the context of the existing fiscal environment. April 16, 1996.
