A
The
a
great
local,
strong
ownership
group
and
I
think
there's
so
many
business
leaders
in
the
room
here
today
that
I'd
urge
you
to
get
behind
the
team
and
and
purchase
your
season
tickets.
You
can
I'm
sure
Jeff
will
take
the
order
right
now.
Well,
maybe
not
right
now,
but
in
a
few
minutes.
So
thank
you
so
much,
commissioner,
and
as
a
token
of
our
appreciation,
I'd
like
to
present
you
with
a
with
a
small
gift
from
Silver
Star
swag.
A
And
we're
gonna
conduct
a
little
bit
of
a
prize
draw
here
somewhat.
Ironically,
it's
a
senators,
jersey
but
I'm
I'm
sure,
that's
it's!
Okay
with
you
all
the
pro
sports
teams
are
gonna
get
along
in
this
city
right
and
it's
actually
an
autographed
Chris
Neil
shirt.
So
it's
a
it's
a
pretty
nice
take
away
this
morning
and
the
Commissioner.
If
you
could
do
the
drop.
B
A
A
A
So
we
just
have
a
few
closing
remarks
and
I
wanted
to
take
this
opportunity
to
make
an
Ottawa
Business
Journal
related
announcement.
This
week
marks
a
significant
milestone
for
Ottawa
Business
Journal's.
We
launched
a
new
division
of
our
company
called
obj
360,
and
you
can
kind
of
think
of
this.
As
an
internal
agency.
That's
set
up
to
help
local
businesses
manage
their
social
media,
create
blogs
videos
all
this
type
of
written
content.
A
In
fact
we're
doing
some
custom
publishing
for
the
redblacks
right
now,
so
think
of
obj
360
as
a
little
bit
of
an
internal
marketing
agency
that
can
help
you
with
make
sure
that
your
marketing
remains
current.
Today
we
have
kind
of
two
related
gifts.
Some
of
our
sales
and
marketing
team
will
be
handing
out
postcards
as
you
leave
and
that
postcard
allows
you
to
access
something.
We
call
the
2014
marketing
ideas
book.
A
We
interviewed
200
of
the
city's
most
foremost
marketing
experts
in
a
survey
to
create
a
sense
of
what
local
business
leaders
and
marketing
experts
think
is
best
practices.
So
you
can
access
that
survey.
The
information
will
be
on
the
postcard,
also
we're
offering
everybody
a
what
we
call
a
free
social
media
report
card,
so
we'll
check
out
your
social
media
channels
and
make
some
recommendations
to
you
and
all
that
is
for
free.
And
while
we
have
such
a
football
enthusiastic
football
audience,
I
did
want
to
give
a
plug
for
a
luncheon.
A
That's
coming
up
on
Tuesday,
June,
24th
I
believe
we've
booked
it
in
the
mayor's
schedule
as
well.
Today
was
all
about
the
CFL
Commissioner
that
luncheon,
which
it
will
happen
in
gene
Pinkett
Hall
on
on
Tuesday
June
24th
will
be
an
opportunity
for
business
leaders
to
meet
the
players
and
the
coaches,
so
it'll
be
very
focused
on
the
team
and
you'll
get
to
see
the
fantastic
talent
we'll
have
as
part
of
the
new
redblacks
and
get
to
know
them
a
little
bit
better
and
you
can
go
to
Ottawa
Business
Journal
for
ticket
information
on
that.
A
Also
I
wanted
to
point
out
the
40
under
40
Awards,
a
great
business
recognition
series.
That's
gone
on
I
believe
for
17
years
in
this
city
will
be
happening
on
Thursday
June
19th
at
the
Hilton
lochley
me
Hotel
on
Thursday
June
4th
just
coming
up
soon
the
eggs
and
icons
breakfast
series
will
host
mark
Monahan.
Of
course,
the
executive
director
believes
fast
blues.
A
Fest
is
celebrating
his
20th
anniversary,
so
it'll
be
fun
having
Mark
and
looking
back
over
the
first
two
decades
of
Blues
Fest
in
our
city,
another
important
event
on
Wednesday
June
11th
will
have
West
Nicol
the
founder
of
tartan
Holmes,
who
is
a
recipient
of
our
Lifetime
Achievement
Award
at
the
best
Ottawa
Business
Awards
that
happen
in
the
fall.
But
in
the
spring
we
actually
unveil
a
plaque
at
the
Plaza
of
honor,
which
is
located
at
the
world.
Exchange
Plaza
so
we'll
be
unveiling
that
marble
plaque
and
also
having
a
luncheon
tribute
to
mr.
A
Nichol
on
that
date
and
as
the
mayor
indicated,
the
next
mayor's
breakfast
is
on
Thursday,
June,
26th
and
a
guest
speaker
will
be
mark
Sierra
from
this
new
CEO
of
Tim
Hortons.
And
for
all
these
events,
you
can
check
out
Ottawa
chamber,
dot
CA,
and
let
me
just
thank
our
sponsors
once
again
before
I.
Send
you
off
our
lead.
Sponsor,
of
course,
is
Carleton
University's
Sprott
School
of
Business.
Thank
you!
So
much
to
them,
let's
see
take
like
collage
da
abdicate
technology.
A
The
Commissioner
is
Ottawa
CPA
chartered
professional
accountant
of
Ontario
tag,
HR
Golder,
Associates,
silver,
star
swag.
There
is
the
Ottawa
Senators,
Hockey
Club
and,
of
course,
our
great
caterers,
a
Centurion
Conference
&
Events
Center.
Thank
you
so
much
for
attending
hope
to
see
you
at
the
next
Mears
breakfast.
C
D
E
E
No!
Thank
you
very
much
calling
for
confirmation
of
minutes
minutes.
32
April,
17
2014
carried
great.
Thank
you
very
much.
The
first
item
is
a
crime
prevention,
Ottawa's
annual
report
update
and,
of
course,
that's
under
the
guidance
of
our
Vice
Chair
of
Qadri.
We
don't
hold
that
he's
going
to
speak
to
that
and
there's
a
bit
of
a
presentation.
E
The
aboriginal
working
committee
update
that
this
item
was
circulated
with
the
agenda.
There
is
a
recommendation
to
sorry
carry
be
so
right.
There's
a
recommendation
to
carry
the
staff
recommendations
there,
which
offer
some
one-time
funding
for
that
endeavor
as
a
result
of
changes
in
federal
funding.
E
Thank
you
very
much
third
item.
We're
gonna
hold
that
Ottawa
Community
Housing
Corporation
mortgage
refinancing
I
know
members
of
committee
were
circulated
some
information
earlier
this
week
that
I
think
addressed
any
issues.
We
are
going
to
hold
it
because
we
do
have
one
speaker
on
it
and
miss
star
for
you
here
in
the
audience.
E
E
F
E
I
think
we
can
all
agree
that
that
it's
a
great
benefit
refinancing
these
properties
and
credit
DOS
eh.
For
doing
so,
it
allows
us
to
put
more
money
less
on
interest
more
on
repairs,
which
is
where
it's
needed
and
thank
you
to
och
and
to
councillor
flurry
for
facilitating
getting
a
breakdown
of
exactly
where
this
money
is
translating
into
benefit
for
residents,
and
that
was
circulated
earlier
this
week.
So
with
that,
that
item
carried.
Thank
you
very
much
now,
item
number
for
the
Ottawa
paramedic
service
and
you.
E
G
You
chair,
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
as
well.
You
have
before
you
the
the
annual
report
as
part
of
our
accountability
to
you
and
the
community.
We
serve
again
this
year
under
the
19,000
calls.
So
we
continue
to
track,
as
we
have
vo
over
a
year,
pleased
to
report
that
both
quantitatively
with
regards
to
responsive,
we
met
and
achieve
all
the
response
lines
that
you've
tasked
us
to
do
and
from
a
qualitative
perspective,
our
patient
outcomes.
G
In
many
areas
we
tend
to
be
leaders
not
only
in
Canada
but
in
North
America,
for
instance,
for
cardiac
arrest
survival.
So
we're
really
proud
of
that.
I
think
two
reasons
why
we
continue
to
to
perform
as
we
do,
regardless
of
the
pressure
one,
the
ongoing
support
we
get
from
you,
and
just,
as
importantly,
the
members
of
the
service
that
you
know
amaze
me
every
day
of
their
commitment
to
the
community
and
they
get
out
there
on
the
road
and
serve
and
to
programs
with
regards
to
innovation.
G
Our
paramedic
response
unit,
which
is
now
best
practice,
continues
to
perform
and
outperform
our
expectations
and
the
partnerships
with
our
health
care
partners.
The
hospitals,
who
have
tremendous
challenges
with
offload
delay,
we've
been
working
with
them
for
several
years
and
we're
seeing
a
very
positive
trends
which
return
unit
hours
to
the
community,
so
in
general,
pleased
to
present
this
and
and
once
again
thank
you
and
committee
all
of
Council
and
certainly
our
members
that
do
a
very
difficult
job
on
a
daily
basis.
G
E
You
very
much
chief
and
credit
to
you
in
your
service
for
doing
some,
some
very
difficult
work
on
a
day
to
day
basis
and
it's
seamless
and-
and
we
thank
you
for
every
time-
your
folks
roll
out
to
to
help
one
of
our
residents.
So
with
that
item
than
before
the
our
paramedic
service
report
annual
report
is
that
carried
carry
okay,
so
that
leaves
us
with
the
crime
prevention.
E
Ottawa
annual
report
will
let
two
counselor
cadre
lead
us
through
that
now
and
I
was
just
informed
by
our
general
manager
of
community
and
social
services
that
some
members
of
the
Aboriginal
Working
Committee
attended
this
morning
and
a
bit
of
a
cause
for
confusion,
but
we're
happy
that
we've
given
them
yes
for
an
answer,
but
they
still
would
like
to
give
us
a
bit
of
an
update
so
with
committee's
indulgence.
After
the
crime
prevention,
Ottawa
report,
I
think
we'd
all
benefit
I'm
sure
hearing
from
the
good
work
they're
doing
so
with
that
vice-chair
Qadri.
B
Merci
Monsieur
president
for
the
opportunity
represented
around
in
some
attack.
Did
you
see
fear
that
the
president
has
a
president
to
prevention,
the
creme
Ottawa,
you
may
fear
my
president
I
see
on
our
way
Nancy
Priscilla
upon
the
occasional
francais
good
morning,
mr.
chair
and
the
committee
members
just
want
to
give.
Thank
you
all
for
giving
us
the
opportunity
to
present
the
crime
prevention
and
your
general
meeting
report
that
in
front
of
you
for
approval
this
morning
and
then
will
be
presented
to
Council.
B
B
Accomplishment
this
year
we
will
briefly
review
or
work
on
engaging
the
public
engaging
the
public
is
a
priority
for
GPO.
On
Monday
of
this
week,
we
hosted
a
panel,
the
men's
role
in
ending
violence
against
women.
It
was
attended
by
approximately
190
people,
and
so
some
of
my
colleagues
council
Shantay,
was
there
counsel.
David
sashanka
was
there
on
with
the
chief
board
law
and
chief
de
guiche
representing
the
city,
so
it
shows
you
that
all
of
our
partners
in
the
community
are
participating
in
our
process
are
going
forward.
B
B
Violence
against
women
is
an
important
social
issue
and
crime
prevention
order.
What
keeps
us
strong
on
it,
following
up
on
a
recommendation
from
our
groundbreaking
research
on
social
media
and
sexual
violence,
CPA
funded
program
called
in
love
and
in
danger
and
action
project
in
to
school
boards,
which
focused
on
the
subject.
We
wrote
to
say
that
our
contract
researcher
Jordan
Fairburn,
is
presenting
the
study
again
as
the
keynote
speech
for
safe
city
Mississauga
next
month.
B
Finally,
we're
very
proud
of
our
an
innovative
work
on
disability
and
abuse.
We
were
nominated
for
an
award
last
December
at
the
celebration
of
people
event
and
we
published
a
booklet
at
this
winter
for
wonderful
clients.
The
booklet
is
clearly
meeting
a
need
because
we
have
already
distributed
more
than
3500
copies
of
that
booklet
and
yet,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
you
can
see
our
programs
on
the
slide.
B
Social
media
is
such
a
violence
in
love
and
in
danger
and
so
on,
and
you
know,
the
slides
are
for
everybody
else
to
look
at
I
can
read
every
word
but
I
think
it's
self
explanatory
accomplishments
in
neighborhoods,
in
January
2013,
we
published
a
short
literature
review
and
the
subject
of
home
take
over
the
paper
was
called
cocooning,
because
almost
everything
we
could
find
on
the
subject
was
from
Britain.
The
cuckoo
bird
lays
its
eggs
in
another
bird's
nest
after
having
killed
off
the
eggs
of
a
rightful
owner
of
the
nest.
B
Thus
the
name
cocooning
a
fitting
image
for
this
phenomenon,
but
Annie
we
found
did
not
work
here
as
created
birds
are
more
polite
than
British
birds.
Note.
The
last
sentence
is
not
a
joke,
but
it
is,
you
know,
almost
a
reality.
We
got
such
strong
reaction
to
the
first
literature
review
on
a
home
takeover
that
we
that
we
created
a
follow-up
committee.
Since
then,
we
have
done
more
research
produce
some
public
education
pieces
funding
the
project
and
built
a
partnership
to
address
this
complex
tissue.
B
This
is
an
example
of
how
nimble
and
responsive
our
staff
is,
and
large
network
can
be
responding
to
safety
issues,
a
great
deal
of
public
disorder
and
neighborhood
deterioration,
a
emanates
from
homes
in
which
the
rightful
tenant
has
lost
control,
we're
seeking
ways
of
intervening
in
these
complex
situations.
Crime,
prevention,
Ottawa,
continues
to
support.
Neighborhoods
through
committees,
research
in
our
neighborhood
toolkit
on
a
policy
level.
We've
been
working
diligently
to
manage
the
Community
Development
Safety
Committee,
and
continue
to
work
towards
a
coordinated
approach
to
problem
addresses.
B
B
Couple
the
next
project
was
the
accomplishment
for
youth
issues.
Our
grants
against
strategy,
just
in
last
room
we
presented
as
part
of
our
annual
report
to
CPS
the
Ottawa
gang
strategy.
Serving
is
the
backbone
of
the
initiative.
This
continues
to
be
a
major
part
of
CPS
work.
The
gang
strategy
includes
eight
intellectual,
interlinked
projects,
CPS
funding
three
of
the
projects
involved
to
some
extent
in
all
of
them,
and
leaves
the
collaboration
or
the
collective
impact.
Our
board
is
expecting
a
report
on
the
first
year
of
the
gang
strategy
at
our
September
meeting.
B
As
you
know,
ottawa's
blessed
with
many
execute
servicing
agencies,
crime
prevention
also
seeks
to
align
with
current
initiatives
and
be
constructive
contributor
to
multiple
networks.
The
piece
that
you
may
now
see
on
the
slide
and
I
think
is
very
important.
Is
our
partners
in
the
gang
strategy
that
the
Ottawa
police
and,
along
with
our
community
partners,
that's
how
the
strategies
being
put
together?
So
we
are
getting
the
community
involved,
as
I
initially
said,.
B
Accomplishments
and
public
engagements
CPAs
mission
is
to
promote
active
community
participation
in
crime
prevention
initiative
through
awareness
and
education
by
working
with
our
partners
across
the
city
we
are
educating
and
engaging
our
residents.
Knowledge
is
power.
Cpr
is
committed
to
an
evidence-based
approach.
In
keeping
with
that
approach,
we
took
some
time
to
step
back
and
the
real
work
on
public
engagement,
I
present
Nancy
Ward,
the
executive
director
of
crime
prevention
Ottawa
to
carry
you
through
the
rest
of
the
presentation
and
I.
Thank

purposes
of
this
report,
we
did
not
manually
calculate
the
results
of
the
earlier
events.
H
Obviously,
a
key
question
with
regards
to
evaluation
was:
did
the
event
meet
people's
expectations
and
we
were
pleased
to
say
that
86%
noted
that
they
were
satisfied
or
very
satisfied
and
I've
invited
bill
Watson.
He
was
also
one
of
our
ambassadors
to
explain
how
these
events
have
been
useful
in
his
work
in
the
community.
I
Thank
you
good
morning.
Yes,
he
turns
out
like
I've,
attended,
probably
10
or
more
of
the
community
events
and
I
find
that
some
that
the
the
information
that
that
we
have
is
is
extremely
good
to
share
with
everyone
and
and
I've,
also
found
that
the
majority
of
the
questions
that
I
have
received
from
the
community
is:
where
do
they
start?
H
H
Another
piece
that
we
are
very
interested
in
is
how
we
grow
our
network
because
to
engage
a
committed
group
of
people
who
are
concerned
about
safety
in
Ottawa.
We
we
have
to
engage
people,
and
we
we
always
ask
when
we
evaluate
our
events,
how
if
people
found
out
about
the
events
in
in
in
the
effort
of
growing
our
network?
H
Notwithstanding
our
networked
age,
we
found
that
the
vast
majority
of
participants
hear
about
our
events
either
because
we
have
engaged
them
previously
directly
or
because
somebody
who
has
engaged
with
us
tells
them
so
that's
the
cpo,
communicate
or
friend
or
co-worker.
The
only
way
that
people
get
onto
our
CTO
communique
list
is
from
person
to
person
contact.
H
How
else
do
we
engage
the
public,
because
public
engagement
is
not
just
about
big
public
events
for
information?
Most
of
the
actual
work
we
do
is
through
project
work
with
community
committees
and
president
community
presentations.
The
connections
built
there
are
more
complex
and
we
are
asking
more
of
people
in
that
setting
we're
engaging
them
in
a
deeper
level.
In
fact,
we're
asking
them
to
act.
A
most
committed
group
of
volunteers,
The,
Ambassadors
and
bill
is
one
of
our
ambassadors.
H
The
role
of
the
ambassadors
is
because
CP
o
has
a
very
small
staff,
there's
only
three
of
us,
and
we
found
that
we
were
getting
us
to
attend
more
events
than
we
could
manage.
So
we've
we've
got
a
group
of
trained
volunteers
who
go
out
and
represent
our
work
and
bring
our
materials
and
so
on
out
in
the
community,
and
it's
we're
very
grateful
for
the
volunteer
efforts.
H
Obviously,
not
all
contact
can
be
in-person,
so
we
also
looked
at
our
publications
as
engagement
tools.
By
far
our
most
popular
piece
has
been
on
our
neighbourhood
toolkit
magnets
and
since
the
launch
of
our
toolkit
in
2010
we've
distributed
57,000
magnets,
our
goal
as
I've,
never
not
not
ashamed
to
say,
is
to
get
a
magnet
on
every
fridge
in
Ottawa.
There
were
only
a
sixth
of
the
way
there,
but
we're
quite
proud
of
that
figure
and
I
get
asked
for
them
all
the
time
we
ship
we
send
them
to
organisations
who
distribute
them.
H
H
Another
piece
of
the
analysis
of
our
public
engagement
was
a
comparison
of
the
work
that
we've
been
doing
over
the
years
and
the
city's
new
public
engagement
strategy
is
extremely
interesting
process
for
us
to
look
at
the
city's
engagement
strategy
and
what
we've
been
doing,
because
we
found
that
we're
actually
up
to
something
a
little
bit
different.
The
city's
public
engagement
strategy
focused
a
bit
more
on
engaging
the
public
in
important
city
decisions,
but
perhaps
because
we're
so
small
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
great
big
public
decisions
to
be
made.
H
So
our
work
is
much
more
focused
on
motivation
and
motivating
people
to
get
involved
and
to
be
volunteers.
We
want
to
get
people
involved
in
community
safety
because
we
know
that
the
success
of
Community
Safety
is
only
going
to
work
when
everybody
gets
involved
and
here's
an
enthusiastic
volunteer.
Nevertheless,
the
review
of
the
city
strategy
in
comparison
to
our
work
helped
us
focus
and
analyze
our
work
and
to
ensure
that
we're
on
the
right
track.
H
Finally,
in
the
analysis
of
our
public
engagement,
we
were
quite
satisfied
that
were
engaging
the
public
and
that
were
we
have
a
sense
that
we're
succeeding
in
doing
that,
but
we
can
always
get
better.
They
do
grant
us
your
pool
immediately,
not

E
G
E
Well,
that
presentation
was
great.
Thank
you
and
I
think
you
know
we
all
kind
of
laud.
The
work
that
CP
o
is
is
doing.
It's
I
and
I
appreciate
the
difficult
space
you're
in,
because
you
know
every
project
every
department
has
to
show
value
for
what
it
does,
but
it's
very
difficult.
You
know
to
measure
something
that
doesn't
take
place
right,
you're
in
the
prevention
business,
so
I
think
you
do
an
incredibly
good
job
of
showing
how
the
work
that
you're
doing
you
know
staves
off.
E
E
Members
of
committee
have
questions
for
the
presenters
No,
okay.
Well,
thank
you
very
much
then,
and
members
of
the
committee
will
receive
this
see.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much
and
now
we'll
ask
weave.
Although
we've
carried
the
item,
we'll
ask
the
members
of
the
aboriginal
working
committee,
who
have
come
today
to
come
down
and
offer
us
a
little
bit
of
an
update
on
what
they're
doing
and
perhaps
answer
any
questions
if
we
have
them,
but
certainly
love
to
hear
from
you
and
and
to
hear
about
the
work
they're
doing.
J
We
began
this
journey
in
2007
as
many
of
the
councillors
that
I
see
around
this
committee
recall
and
are
very
proud
of
what
how
they've
grown
together
to
improve
the
service
delivery
for
urban
Aboriginal
people
in
our
community
and
today,
I'm
joined
by
the
aboriginal
were
too
many
partners
and
colleagues
will
be
participating
in
the
presentation
this
morning
and
they're.
Also,
the
artists
behind
me
and
I'll
stop
introducing
who's
up
here
with
me.
J
Right
now
is
the
co-chair
of
the
aboriginal
working
committee
and
the
executive
director
of
digne
housing
and
that's
been
with
AWC
since
beginning
and
chairs
the
ottawa
aboriginal
coalition
tena
Sloan
white,
the
executive
director
of
Argan
housing
for
Aboriginal
youth
team
has
become
a
valuable
member
of
a
wc4
new
universe.
He
is,
and
the
other
presenter
Susan
McDonald's
who's
the
superintendent
of
instruction
Aboriginal
portfolio
for
the
Ottawa
Carleton
District,
School
Board
and
his
my
newest
member
of
the
AWC.
But
has
contributed
a
great
deal
in
the
short
time
she's
been
with
us.
J
It
was
a
pleasure
to
get
to
know
her
and,
of
course,
you
all
know
Claire
Freya,
who
is
one
of
our
managers
and
comedian
social
services
who
oversees
this
portfolio
and
has
been
guiding
this
initiative
and
supporting
this
initiative
from
day.
One
I'd
also
like
to
acknowledge,
Joe,
Macquarie
and
joel,
has
is
in
the
audience
behind
me
and
asthma.
J
An
active
participant
has
been
with
us
from
the
beginning
and
has
been
a
real
treasure
that
we
have
here
in
our
community
David
snotty
from
Ottawa
Police
Service
is,
in
the
background
Rodney
that
Dupree
from
the
Ottawa
Public,
Library,
Susan,
Jones
or
general
manager
for
emergency
protective
services
here
is
also
on
the
committee
amber
is
on.
The
committee
is
also
in
the
audience
is
on
the
committee
and
many
of
our
general
managers
throughout
you
in
the
committee.
That
kind
leads
to
my
next
point.
J
When
we
first
began,
we,
we
only
started
engaging
a
few
departments
in
city
operations
to
start
addressing
the
issues
addressed
by
experienced
by
urban
Aboriginal
people
in
Ottawa,
and
since
then
we
have
over
25
staff
representing
10
city
departments
who
participate
in
AWC.
So
in
a
very
healthy
turnout.
J
J
D
Sorry
about
that,
thank
you
Steve.
It
is
my
pleasure
to
be
here
today
to
present
the
aboriginal
working
committee's
report
and
once
again
to
acknowledge
the
support
that
council
has
provided
in
the
past,
but
also
the
excellent
working
relationship
that
we've
had
as
a
community
with
city
officials.
The
purpose
of
the
presentation
is
to
provide
highlights
of
the
work
of
this
municipal
average
in
a
relationship
that
we're
all
collectively,
very
proud
of
I'll,
start
out
by
providing
some
background
and
context
to
the
aw
C's
work.
D
Ottawa,
as
you
know,
is
a
prime
destination
for
many
Aboriginal
people
throughout
Canada,
at
seeking
employment
and
supports
and
opportunities
in
a
major
in
areas
such
as
Ottawa
and
based
on
the
2011
National
Household
Survey,
there's
approximately
18,000
Aboriginal
people
that
have
been
identified
living
in
the
City
of
Ottawa.
However,
through
organizational
experience
and
having
a
pretty
good,
in-depth
knowledge
of
the
amount
of
people
Aboriginal
people
in
the
National
Capital
Region.
D
That
number
we
believe
is
actually
closer
to
the
40,000
and
that's
indicative
in
most
major
urban
areas
that
it's
underreported
in
any
survey
or
census
that's
been
taken.
The
actual
number
is
quite
high.
Much
higher
the
Aboriginal
population
here
in
Ottawa
is
no
different
than
the
rest
of
the
country.
It's
very
young,
with
approximately
50%
of
our
population
under
the
age
of
24
and,
what's
even
further
and
more
notable
is
that
almost
40%
of
that
population
is
under
the
age
of
15.
D
To
date,
the
Coalition
has
concentrated
its
efforts
to
develop
relationships
under
four
main
areas.
Certainly,
the
municipal
relationship
is
primarily,
we
also
have
a
secondary
stream
of
relationship
building
with
United
Way,
and
we
have
done
capacity-building
to
amplify
our
voice
within
that
organization
and
we're
at
a
point
now,
where
they're
actually
matching
donors
with
Aboriginal
organizations
to
take
advantage.
So
recently,
Accenture
came
forward
with
an
opportunity
to
work
with
Aboriginal
women
and
being
better
prepared
for
the
labor
force.
So
that's
a
two-year
commitment
and
they're
working
directly
with
min
wash
and
launched.
D
Last
summer,
the
National
Gallery
of
Canada
had
an
international
art
exhibit
of
indigenous
artists
from
across
the
the
world.
It
was
the
largest
of
its
kind
and
a
donor
graciously
came
forward
and
wanted
to
amplify
again
the
inclusion
of
Aboriginal
youth
to
experience
the
the
exhibit,
but
also
to
provide
programming
opportunities
here
in
the
city,
with
Aboriginal
youth
to
access
the
exhibit
and
also
being
more
exposed
to
cultural
activities
that
were
both
contemporary
and
traditional,
and
as
a
result
of
that,
the
coalition
is
being
recognized
by
the
United
Way
later
on
this
month.
D
As
a
community
builder.
With
with
respect
to
that,
we
also
have
another
stream
of
relationship
builder
with
the
federal
government.
That's
been
primarily
through
the
urban
Aboriginal
strategy,
which
is
provided
through
the
Aboriginal
Affairs
and
Northern
Development
Canada
they've
changed
their
recent
approach,
and
that
was
part
of
the
requests
that
we
came
forward
on
on
the
monetary
side
and
we
thank
you
very
much
for
your
support,
we're
still
working
with
the
federal
government
and
we're
hopeful
to
maintain
the
relationship
that
we've
had
in
the
past
number
of
years
to
support
the
capacity-building.
D
At
the
community
level.
The
forth
stream
has
been
with
the
provincial
government
through
the
Ministry
of
Aboriginal
Affairs,
who
also
participate
in
the
urban
average
and
a
strategy
and
provide
some
level
of
funding
to
build
capacity,
but
their
participation
is
only
matching
the
federal
contribution
and
that
was
again
part
of
the
the
delay
in
the
the
revised
relationship
with
the
federal
government
and
the
provincial
government
having
some
delay
and
matching
until
we
knew
what
the
the
outcome
was
with
the
federal
government.
D
We've
got
an
overwhelmingly
young
population
and
we
need
to
get
better
at
Ament
in
the
school
system
and
having
our
children
recognised
and
valued
and
and
being
progressive,
and
certainly
the
Ottawa
Carleton
district
school
board
has
done
a
number
of
things
in
the
recent
number
of
years
to
help
work
with
the
community
and
our
organizations
and
our
children
and
our
families
to
make
that
happen.
So
with
that,
I'll
turn
it
over
to
Tina
and
she'll
talk
about
more
of
an
update.
Thank
you.

Probably
these
identified
as
important
by

Last

to

program
to
the
Aboriginal

and
work
with
partners
in
order
to
have
Aboriginal

participate.
L
It's
a
pleasure
to
be
here
today
and
to
be
part
of
the
AWC.
The
auto
account
district
scorebook
School
Board
has
been
working
very
hard
over
these
last
few
years
to
learn
to
listen
and
work
with
the
Aboriginal
community
in
Ottawa
in
order
to
better
serve
the
children
and
youth
in
our
schools.
Our
partnership
with
AWC
has
been
absolutely
critical
in
our
growth
in
this
area.
L
For
example,
the
Ottawa
Carleton
District
School
Board
recently
opened
their
community
Aboriginal
learning
space
at
Rideau
high
school
in
order
to
provide
a
safe
and
respectful
space
for
educational
programming
at
the
local
school
level.

as
well
as
a

fall
of
2013,

that
they
hosted

hosted.
L
This

to
support
the

toolkits
that
have
been
purchased
and
are
being
used
in
all
grade
seven
to
twelve
of
sites
across
the
school
board.
These
toolkits
work,
together
with
the
exhibition,
to
detail
the
residential
school
system
and
are
aimed
at
educating
all
Canadians
on
the
history
legacy
and
intergenerational
impacts
of
the
school
system
that
continue
to
affect
aboriginal
communities.
Today,
our
goal
as
a
school
system
is
to
ensure
that
nobody
leaves
our
board
without
understanding
the
impact,
the
residential
school
system
that
continues
to
affect
communities.
L
Today
the
city
has
created
a
staff,
Aboriginal
Awareness
Day,
now
an
annual
event
for
city
staff
management
and
community
partner
staff
to
build
knowledge
and
understanding
about
Aboriginal
cultures,
Ottawa
Public,
Library,
hosted
culturally
specific
programs
and
events,
including
Aboriginal
Arthur,
David
Bouchard,
who
presented
to
over
500
students
at
Rideau
high
school
in
terms
of
Employment
and
economic
development.
The
city
has
worked
closely
with
OSC
to
promote
municipal
jobs,
to
the
Aboriginal
community,
through
participation
in
career
fairs
and
on-site
visits
with
aboriginal
partners.
L
The
city's
community
and
social
services
department
hosted
a
four-day
employment
workshop
series
focusing
on
development
of
career
skills
with
over
35
years
of
abano
Center,
for
which
Aboriginal

Kijiji
macam
and
an
example
of
systemic
change
in
response
to
the
Kingfisher
at
Lake,
First
Nations
evacuation
in
July
of
2011,
the
city's
Emergency
and
Protective
Services
Department
worked
with
numerous
AWC
partners
to
alter
the
city's
emergency
plan
and
put
a
permanent
policy
and
protocol
in
place
that
now
engages
average
and
service
providers.
At
the
outset,
whenever
an
an
evacuation
to
Ottawa
occurs.
L
Mark
spoke
briefly
about
Sokka
Haan
in
2013.
The
United
Way
as
an
AWC
partner,
facilitated
an
anonymous
donation
of
a
hundred.
Ninety
five
thousand
dollars
to
increase
participation
of
Aboriginal
youth
in
the
Sokka
non
art
exhibits
showing
at
the
National
Gallery
of
Canada.
Last
summer,
over
250
Aboriginal
youth
participated
in
specialized
summer
camps
and
workshops
designed
to
bring
together
the
Aboriginal
community
in
Ottawa
local
artists
and
indigenous
artists,
to
participate
in
the
song.
Kahan
exhibition.
D
Now,
just
of
the
evaluation
and
next
steps
in
2012,
the
aboriginal
working
committee,
membership
identified
the
need
to
conduct
an
evaluation
to
review
our
work
in
order
to
identify
more
strategic
alignment
between
the
working
committee
and
the
aboriginal
community
priorities
and
organizational
partners
strategic
goals.
So
the
intention
was
to
produce
a
document
that
could
be
used
as
a
best
practice
review,
not
only
for
our
relationship
but
for
other
municipalities
and
urban
Aboriginal
coalition's
with
a
view
to
leverage
support
from
both
the
national
and
provincial
policy
and
planning
and
potential
funding
bodies.
D
The
evaluation
explored
a
number
of
success
factors
and
challenges
in
the
past
six
years
and
identified
some
ideas
for
moving
forward.
So
without
this
valuable
perspective
of
both
former
and
current
members
of
the
average
and
working
committee,
we
would
not
have
been
able
to
gain
the
clear
picture
of
what
our
work
is
meant
to
community,
as
well
as
to
the
partnership.
So
we
now
have
good
feedback
to
consider
together
areas
of
improvement
and
evolving
the
actual
relationship
and
partnership
that
we
have.
D
Several
key
successes
were
noted
that
included
a
deliberate
focus
on
trust
in
a
relationship
building
that
we
were
using
a
collaborative
leadership
model
both
within
the
coalition
at
the
Aboriginal
community
level,
as
well
as
with
the
city
dedicated
senior
leadership
within
the
city
and
among
our
partnership,
commitment
to
learn
about
and
listen
to,
the
Aboriginal
community
and,
finally,
a
commitment
to
work
in
a
coordinated
and
integrated
way
across
the
city
departments
and
services
and
organizations.
So
areas
for
improvement
and
future
work.
D
The
feedback
indicated
three
areas
for
us
to
focus
on
in
the
immediate
future,
that
being
strengthened,
community
visioning
and
consultation
to
work
on
determining
priorities
for
the
next
five
years,
a
greater
focus
on
outcomes
and
performance
indicators
which
need
to
be
developed
a
fully
document
and
understand,
as
well
as
celebrate
what
we
have
accomplished.
So
there's
definitely
a
commitment
to
focus
on
measurement
and
finally,
refocusing
our
work
plan
both
in
the
development
of
initiatives
and
how
information
is
being
shared
back
into
the
community
and
across
organizations.
D
And
then
conclusion
the
aboriginal
working
committee
world
in
concrete
next
steps,
based
on
the
results
of
the
evaluation
that
include
explore,
conducting
an
Aboriginal,
Working,
Committee,
visioning
and
priority
setting
exercise
to
be
renewed
every
two
to
three
years
to
strategize
on
how
to
deepen
the
cultural
awareness
of
Aboriginal
populations
of
communities
among
key
city
staff
and
across
partner
organizations.
In
order
to
integrate
that
learning
and
everyday
work.
D
Update
and
restructure
our
work
plan
with
definable,
measurable
outcomes
linked
to
community-wide
priorities,
develop
a
matter
of
strategic
relationship,
building,
review
measure
membership
to
ensure
growth
and
sustainability
of
both
our
leadership
and
commitment
over
the
next
five
years
and
once
again,
we're
very
proud
of
the
partnership.
That's
been
created
through
the
average
and
working
committee
and
the
relationship
with
the
city
overall
and
look
forward
to
continuing
this
journey
over
the
next
several
years,
and
that
concludes
our
presentation
and
I'll
pass
it
back
to
Steve
for
questions.
Thank
you.
E
Thank
you
very
much
and
thank
you
all
for
the
presentation.
As
I
said
at
the
outset,
we
we
carried
your
items,
so
success
is
success,
but
thank
you
for
the
presentation,
because
I
think
it
gave
us
a
good
overview
of
what
you've
been
working
on
and
and
all
the
progress
you've
made.
I
mean
in
seven
years,
you've
moved
from
interest
to
listening
to
hearing
to
collaboration,
which
is
a
lot
of
ground
to
cover,
in
a
relatively
short
space
of
time,
so
credit
to
everybody
involved
that
you've
done
it.
I,
don't
know.
E
E
Builders,
you
know
folks
who
have
designers.
Thank
you
counselor.
You
know,
folks,
who
have
an
additional
hand
above
and
beyond
the
government,
in
terms
of
shaping
the
look
and
feel
of
the
city
and
I
think
many
private
entities,
simply
don't
you
know,
like
any
private
entity,
they're
very
much
in
their
own
box
and
they
don't
consider
anything
outside
their
box
unless
someone
woke
them
up
to
it,
but
they're,
not
averse
to
it.
E
If
someone
visited
them
and
I
know,
we've
been
having
success
in
other
areas,
certainly
council,
the
flurry
with
kind
of
the
youth
engagement
strategy,
Clara
Colleen
and
her
team
with
the
senior
and
older
adult
engagement
strategy
oftentimes.
It
just
takes
a
discussion
with
the
private
sector
to
say
be
aware
that
that
this
is
part
of
our
community
and
quite
often
they're
open
to
it.
So
I
guess
it's
not
so
much
question
as
it
is
feedback,
but
I,
don't
know.
If
you
want
to
comment
on
it
up
to
you.
D
Thank
you
very
much
for
that
observation,
and
it's
actually
something
that
our
coalition
and
our
relationship.
We
actually
have
a
formal
inclusion
of
a
representative
from
the
Aboriginal
business
community
and
it's
an
area
that
I
think
is,
is
underserved
and
certainly
something
that
we
need
to
make
a
better
effort
to
have
an
engagement
with
the
business
community.
D
Again,
some
of
the
success
that
we
have
had
is
because
it's
not
the
usual
suspects
that
are
sitting
around
the
table.
Our
approach
has
been
very
practical
and
you
can
see
it
actually
in
some
of
the
work
that
organizations
have
done.
We
just
completed
two
years
ago,
twenty-eight
unit,
affordable
housing
initiative
on
Cummings,
Avenue
and
mr.
Tierney's.
Writing
that's
contributed
to
that
part
of
the
community.
Robin
I
just
completed
a
15
million
dollar
expansion.
That's
revitalized!
Vanier
and
you
know
again
those
are
practical
terms
by
organizations,
but
they
have
business
implications
as
well.
D
One
of
the
things
that
we
talked
about
in
a
presentation
last
year
from
Kevin
page
was
looking
at
the
economic
impact
and
contribution
of
Aboriginal
people
in
this
community
over
the
years.
Right
now,
and
it's
really
about
focusing
on
positive
assets
and
building
them
and
certainly
take
your
suggestion
to
hurt.
Thank
you.
Yeah.
E
Thanks
very
much
and
I
don't
want
to
make
it
seem
like
you
haven't,
been
doing
it.
It's
just
you've
done
a
lot.
You've
done
quite
a
lot
of
work
in
in
seven
years,
so
it's
I
think
it's
a
natural
progression.
It's
kind
of
the
next
place
to
go.
You've
got
you
know,
governments
on
side,
you've
got
community
on
side
and
thinking
now
kind
of
actively
thinking
so
I
think
business
and
private
sector.
Probably
next
I
would.
D
F
A
quick
comment:
I
want
to
say
what
a
wonderful
asset
this
network
is,
where
Ottawa
we're
so
lucky
to
have
you
all
working
together
and
as
the
network
gets
larger
and
larger
and
more
effective.
It's
really
wonderful
to
see
so
Congrats
to
mr.
Ken
Arrakis
and
his
brain
and
all
the
members
of
the
network
you're
doing
a
great
job.
E
Thank
you
very
much.
Are
there
any
other
questions?
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
presentation
today
and
for
taking
time
with
us
moving
on
that's
the
end
of
the
formal
agenda
piece:
are
there
any
in-camera
items
no
information
previously
distributed?
There
is
an
item
here,
an
IP
D
that
was
distributed
and
update
on
implementation
of
the
2014
childcare
service
plan
and
I.
Just
didn't
want
to
take
this
opportunity
to
remind
members
of
committee
that
dr.
E
burrows
department
is
in
the
midst
of
a
childcare
plan
review
and
there
are
many
input
mechanisms
through
that
review
process,
but
in
addition
to
those
I,
think
we're
always
open
to
looking
at
opportunities
to
involve
and
engage
folks
in
the
review
process,
either
from
within
the
formalized
childcare
community.
Or
you
know
even
just
parents
who
are
you
know,
providing
interest
and
I
attended
several
sessions
through
it
last
year
there
were
many
many
you
know:
parents
and
families
who
came
out
to
provide
feedback,
but
dr.
burry.
C
Rolling
out
a
series
of
changes
and
we're
trying
to
provide,
you
know,
advance
information
as
well
as
where
we
hope
to
be
over
six
to
eight
months
on
down
the
road.
Obviously,
when
you
start
talking
about
where
you
plan
to
be
some,
grapes
won't
have
information
immediately
as
to
what
it's
all
going
to
mean
and
it's
a
process
that
we're
going
through
and
that's
continuing
absolutely.
F
C
We
have
that
built
in
there's
ongoing
representatives
from
all
the
different
communities
that
come
around
the
stakeholders.
Every
information,
every
piece
of
decision-making
is
all
posted.
Anyone
who
wants
that
can
have
emails
to
it.
That
goes
out
automatically.
We've
also
had
other
meetings
with
other
groups.
We
had
a
request
specifically
last
week
for
the
francophone
group
tell
a
unique
and
francophone
session,
and
we
did
that
so.
F
E
What
we,
what
we
could
do
is
ask
a
dr.
burry
to
come
up
with
you
know,
one
or
two
page
or
outlining
the
child
care
review
strategy
and
those
critical
points
for
public
discussion
and
circulate
it
to
members
of
council,
so
that
you
know
if
anybody
gets
an
inquiry
you
can
you
have
a
document,
you
can
go
to
and
very
easily
identifies.
You
know,
opportunities
for
engagement,
I,
think.
C
It's
important
as
well
to
identify
who
the
representatives
are
from
those
communities
and
we'll
do
that
as
well,
because
we
believe
that
the
communities
and
we've
been
advising
them
was
the
reason
that
have
a
stakeholders
reference
group
so
that
they
can
also
have
a
direct
representative.
Who
is
well
then
fan
out
to
their
networks,
which
are
you
know,
the
significant
number
of
stakeholders
involved
in
childcare,
parent
groups
etc.
And
we
we've
made
that
information
available
to
anyone.
Who's
asked
for
it.
E
E
C
Mr.
chair
councillor,
ecology
suggest
that
I
read
the
whole
thing
that,
since
it's
small
print
on
the
legal
size,
I
think
he's
dreaming
it's.
This
is
just
a
notice
of
motion
to
take
an
approach
in
dealing
with
gaining
access
in
areas
where
individuals
are
renting
out
three
rooms
or
fewer
in
their
homes
to
ensure
they're
complying
with
rooming
house
and
other
legislation
that
we
have
in
place.
It's
there,
everyone
can
read
it.
