Description
Standing Committee on Environmental Protection, Water and Waste Management- June 21, 2022
Agenda and supporting documents available at www.ottawa.ca/agendas
A
Riley's
been
throwing
me
for
a
loop
in
the
last
few
days
with
this
whole
different
camera
angle
in
his
office.
I'm
like
I'm,
not
even
just
it's,
so
I
don't
know
I'm
just
not
used
to
it.
It's
like
I
I
used
to.
I
did
like
six
months
in
the
in
my
camper.
It
got
so
bad
that
everyone
just
assumed
I
was
actually
living
in
it.
A
B
A
A
B
A
A
A
Thank
you
so
much
so.
First
thing:
first,
we
have
a
a
deferral
of
the
anti-island
bylaw
inquiry,
which
came
from
last
last
meeting.
We
have
some
speakers
on
that.
So
we'll
come
we'll
come
back
to
that
climate
change,
master
plan,
climate
vulnerability
and
risk
assessment,
which
is
item
number
one
presentation
and
speakers
on
that.
One
come
back
to
that
item
number
two
is
2021
hydro,
ottawa
dividend,
surplus
spending
plan.
A
Also
speakers
and
a
presentation
item
number
three
is
an
update
on
the
transition
to
provincial
blue
box.
Individual
producer
responsibility.
There
are
any
speakers
on
it.
I'm
not
sure
how
everyone
feels
about
that.
I
know
it's.
It
was
circulated,
it's
just
an
update
on
where,
where
we
stand
right
now
with
the
blue
box
transition
with
the
province,
of
course,
it's
individual
produce
responsibility.
The
province
is
transitioning
the
entire
province
to
this
over
a
few
years.
Ottawa
is
one
of
the
first
to
start,
which
will
be
july.
A
D
I
don't
think
we
need
to
hold.
I
did
have
just
a
real
brief
question
to
staff
around
communications
now
I
know
we're
dealing
with
the
financial
components
and
the
the
negotiations,
but
obviously
there
would
be
implications
once
this
comes
into
effect,
especially
since
it
will
be
the
producers
dealing
with
the
challenges.
A
Now
we
have
andre
gate,
for
here
I
mean
ultimately
I
mean
energy
can
can
respond.
I
mean
we
don't
fully
know
the
exact
impacts
just
yet
they
could
be
minimal
to
non-existent
if
we
carry
on
with
the
collection,
as
we've
been
doing
with
contractors
and
whatnot,
but
we
we
don't
know
that
entirely,
but
andrea
can
maybe
touch
on
that
a
bit
more
if
I've
said
anything
wrong.
E
D
A
Okay.
So
the
the
report
in
front
of
us
is
that
snake
media
environment,
professional
water,
race
management
recommended
council
one
receive
an
update
on
the
provincial
blue
box
program,
transition
to
individual
producer
responsibility
and
two
delegate:
the
authority
general
manager,
public
works
department
in
constitution
with
legal
finance
and
supply
services
to
negotiate
using
the
proposed
guidelines
and
execute
in
the
best
interest
of
the
city.
The
agreement
is
needed
for
transition
period
of
the
provincial
ipr
blue
box
program
july
1
2023
to
december
31st
2025,
as
described
within
this
report
and
accompanying
confidential
memorandum.
A
Thank
you
so
item
four
is
the
riso
park,
ravine
rehabilitation,
class,
environmental
assessment
and
functional
design
in
cancer?
Judas
is
in
this
ward,
so
we
don't
have
any
speakers.
I
don't
think
there's
need
for
presentation
on
this.
So
on
the
item.
The
item
is
that
the
standard
can
be
done
by
professional
water.
Waste
management
recommend
that's
funny.
The
word
committee
is
in
the
recommendation.
Twice.
A
A
Thank
you
and
we
have
two
counselors
items:
one
from
councillor
mckinney
on
the
endorsement
of
the
fossil
fuel
non-proliferation
treaty
and
item.
Seven
is
from
council
menard
on
the
tree
ejection
by
law,
so
that
those
those
two
items
both
have
speakers
so
we'll
come
back
to
those,
and
then
we
have
we'll
get
that
okay,
so
we'll
go
back
to
item
ostensibly
item
zero,
which
was
the
response
to
inquiry
on
effectiveness
and
enforceability
of
anti-islam
by
law.
A
So
I
will
it
was.
It
was
a
council
menard
that
asked
for
it
to
be
brought
to
this
committee
for
the
meeting
so
I'll.
Ask
a
council
seminar
just
to
speak
briefly
on
it.
I
didn't
believe
I
have
staff
here
to
do
any
presentation
on
the
on
the
response.
At
all
I
mean
we've
all
had
the
response
for
quite
some
time,
and
then
we
have
a
couple
delegations
on
the
matter.
F
Thank
you
very
much
chair
just
very
very
briefly.
I
was
really
pleased
that
staff
got
back
to
us
on
this
issue.
They
summarized
some
of
the
difficulty
I
think
in
enforcing
this
file
or
what
we've
seen
enforced
in
the
last
several
years
in
ottawa.
I
think
there
are
10
tickets
issued
on
idling
in
the
last
several
years.
So
not
many.
F
We
are
seeing
this
behavior
outside
of
our
schools
and
in
areas
where
it
affects
our
air
quality,
and
so
I
wanted
to
make
sure
to
get
it
on
the
agenda,
this
term
of
council.
I
know
that
there's
some
delegations
that
will
speak
to
this.
The
community's
been
doing
some
good
work
on
it,
with
some
analysis
and
other
municipalities.
So
I'm
looking
forward
to
hearing
from
them
the
one
thing
I'll
just
mention
is:
we
do
have
a
motion
drafted
and
I'm
not
sure
chris.
F
F
F
Whereas
the
bylaw
framework
specified
that
the
city's
bylaw
should
be
reviewed
and
updated
every
ten
years
and
the
anti-idling
bylaw
was
last
updated
15
years
ago
in
20
2007
and
whereas,
in
accordance
with
the
council,
approved
bylaw
review
framework.
It
is
anticipated
that
the
2023
to
2026
bylaw
review
work
plan
will
be
brought
forward
for
council's
consideration
and
approval
early
in
the
new
term
of
council.
To
identify
file.
F
Exemptions
which
currently
include
12
categories
of
vehicles
that
are
not
subject
to
the
bylaw,
improved
definitions
of
terms
such
as
idle
mobile
workshop,
normal
farm
practice,
private
transit
vehicle
and
vehicle
to
ensure
accuracy
and
enforceability
enforcement.
Providing
clarity
on
how
citizens
can
report
non-compliant,
idling
to
the
city
for
investigation
and
a
review
of
complaints,
associated
actions
and
effectiveness,
integration
and
updating
of
the
vehicle
and
equipment.
F
Island
policy
dated
june
2002
number
fs01,
updated
february
2021
and
therefore
be
it
resolved
that
council
requests
the
ottawa
board
of
health,
consider
developing
a
public
education
and
signage
campaign
to
reduce
unnecessary
idling
in
collaboration
with
the
city
of
ottawa
staff,
including
public
information
and
media
relations
and
emergency
protective
services.
Thanks
chair.
A
Thank
you.
I
know
in
normal
farm
practice
we
use
a
definition
provided
from
the
ontario
ministry
of
agriculture,
food
and
rural
affairs
that
we've
we.
I
think
we
embedded
that
in
our
site,
alteration
bylaw
when
we
developed
that
a
few
years
ago,
back
in
my
air
act
days.
Okay,
so
let's
go
to
our
hey.
Look
at
that.
It's
like
the
timer.
A
G
G
And
others,
okay,
I'm
speaking,
I
just
want
to
thank
counselor
menard
for
the
motion
and
and
I'm
speaking
today
on
behalf
of
cafes,
as
well
as
a
community
association
working
group,
and
we
are
very
pleased
and
support
the
emotion
that
he's
just
read
out.
I
like
to
point
out
that
I'm
actually
representing
a
lot
of
people
behind
me.
Cafes,
has
50
community
associations
and
there's
also
this
working
group
that
started
independently
of
cafes.
G
I
did
upload.
I
did
send
a
document
to
be
uploaded.
I
don't
know
chris
if
you've
got
it
there,
great
thanks,
so
this
picture
is
interesting,
although
idling
really
only
came
to
the
mind
of
some
of
us
during
the
convoy
it's
been
on
the
mind
of
a
lot
of
people
for
quite
a
bit
longer.
This
is
a
picture
from
a
student
competition
that
was
run
on
the
benef
health
benefits
of
not
idling
around
schools.
G
G
Next
slide,
please,
as
the
emotion
has
just
said,
the
current
bylaw
mostly
focuses
on
education
and
doesn't
enforce
much
or
it's
frankly,
not
known
about
much
yet
still,
there's
been
over
4
000
complaints
about
idling
since
the
bylaw
came
into
force
and
these
complaints,
interestingly,
in
the
suburbs,
originally
mostly
about
around
schools
and
idling
around
schools
in
the
downtown
there's
more
mixture
around
schools,
seniors
residents,
delivery,
trucks
and
municipal
vehicles
next
slide.
Please.
G
I
didn't
know
this
until
recently
that
one
in
six
deaths
globally
are
related
to
air
pollution,
that's
huge
and
during
the
convoy
I
think
we
had
issues
with
asthma
and
lots
of
respiratory
problems.
I
personally
some
of
the
people
on
the
climate
on
this
working
group
committee
had
asthma
problems
next
slide.
Please,
there
are
also
environmental
impacts.
G
G
It's
also
contributes
significantly
to
greenhouse
gases,
so
reducing
it
would
help
ottawa
meet
its
targets
next
slide,
please
there
are
significant
costs
to
idling
and
there
are
benefits
from
preventing
it
for,
and
these
benefits
go
to
both
the
city
and
private
vehicle
owners.
Today
I
want
to
talk
about
the
benefits
for
the
city.
G
Gas
prices
are
now
two
dollars
a
liter,
so
ottawa
could
do
the
same
thing
and
save
quite
a
bit
of
money.
I
don't
know
the
exact
amount,
but
a
2008
study
in
ontario,
including
ottawa,
found
that
30
to
50
percent
of
the
time
municipal
vehicles
are
running.
They
are
idling
one
minute
I
think
that's
probably
decreased,
but
even
if
it
was
only
20
percent,
it
would
save
us
lots
of
money
next
slide.
G
A
A
We
aren't
like
our
federal
and
professional
counterparts
where
we
just
f
off
once
the
once
the
the
rich
dropped
and
we
don't
actually
do
any
work
whatsoever
while
we're
campaigning,
we
actually
all
have
jobs
still
to
do
between
now
and
november
14th.
I
might
even
just
hold
a
special
meeting
of
all
committees,
our
chair
on
november
14th,
just
for
fun
just
to
hold
on
to
power.
Just
for
that
one
little
grasping
moment.
Councilman
has
a
question
for
each
one.
F
And
what
you
don't
know
about
that?
Jonas,
it's
actually
half
the
committees
that
we
have
that
scott
shares,
which
is
an
all-time
record
so
joe.
I
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
for
all
the
work
you've
done
on
this
you've
been
a
big
proponent
of
this
and
you've
pushed
this
along.
I
guess
in
your
research
of
other
municipalities,
and
I
see
paulina's
up
next
as
well,
but
in
your
research
of
other
municipalities,
who
does
it
really?
Well,
I
mean
who,
should
we
be
emulating
here
in
ottawa?.
G
So
the
fact
that
that
our
temperature
thresholds
mean
that
they're
that
the
convoy
in
the
winter
wasn't
going
to
be
covered
finally,
and
in
the
summertime,
any
future
convoys
won't
be
covered
either,
which
is
also
you
know,
to
have
a
bylaw
that
covers
less
than
half
of
our
year
is
not
very
good.
So
that's
one
point.
I
think
we
actually
need
to
look
at
a
few
things.
Some
of
the
enforcement
done
in
other
cities
like
new
york,
is
really
good
where
they
actually
get
citizens
involved,
and
why
not?
G
You
know
like
we
don't
have
an
army
of
bylaw
officers,
so
they've
got
there's
some
creative
solutions
that
other
cities
have
done
and
I
think
are
worth
looking
at
and
the
money
that
goes
into
these
things
can
be
actually
put
into.
Education
can
be
directed
to
climate
change
whatever.
So
I
think
all
of
these
things
are
worth
looking
at.
F
G
And
I
just
paid
my
tax
bill
and
I
think
it
is
infuriating
when
you
see
this
at
dollars
a
liter
seeing-
and
I
just
saw
two
landscaping
city
officials
sitting
there
with
their
windows
down
happily
idling
away
just
a
few
days
ago.
It's
it's
just
not
necessary
and
very
costly
millions
and
millions
of
dollars
seriously.
I
J
Good
morning,
chair
vice
chair,
counselors
and
city
staff,
I
also
have
a
deck
to
present
chris,
but
I
hope
you're
all
doing
well
and
thank
you
for
the
time
to
speak
with
you.
So
my
name
is
paulina
and
I'm
here
representing
a
a
working
group
of
several
ottawa
community
associations
who
are
concerned
about
idling
in
the
city
and
are
proposing
some
recommendations
on
how
to
strengthen
our
approach
to
idling
and
enforcing
the
existing
bylaw,
and
many
of
those
were
reflected
in
the
emotion
that
counselor
menard
had
read
out
earlier.
J
So
our
working
group
is
composed
primarily
of
four
community
associations
from
center
town,
gleeb,
hintonburg
and
beignet,
but
we
also
have
the
support
of
old
ottawa
eastern
oladwara
cells.
The
glee
community
association
has
done
a
lot
of
work
on
anti-italian
campaigns
as
joan
had
mentioned,
so
this
is
really
building
on
their
efforts
and
we've
also
been
liaising
with
our
local
bias
to
garner.
J
And
support
next
slide,
please
and
the
purpose
of
our
recommendations,
which
are
elaborated
on
solena
in
a
report
that
I'd
also
provided
to
the
committee
is
to
support
a
complete
by-law
review
and
update,
which
we
now
understand
will
be
probably
happening
in
the
next
term
of
council.
We
hope
that
the
idling
bylaw
could
be
prioritized
for
an
update,
since
it's
really
quite
out
of
date
and
out
of
step
with
recent
commitments
from
the
city,
including
the
declaration
of
a
climate
emergency
in
2019.
J
We
hope
to
see
movement
from
the
city
that
makes
it
clear
that
unnecessary
idling
is
not
acceptable
in
a
livable
city.
While
we
deal
with
a
climate
emergency
that
has
an
obvious
impact
on
health
and
well-being,
we've
compared
ottawa's
bylaw
to
bylaws
and
initiatives
from
other
major
cities
such
as
toronto,
edmonton,
vancouver
and
new
york
to
councillor's
question
earlier
all
of
these
cities,
their
different
programs
have
kind
of
each
of
them
have
their
own
pros
and
cons.
I
would
say:
toronto,
vancouver
and
new
york
and
and
mature,
like
those.
J
The
four
I
just
mentioned,
are
maybe
the
strongest
in
different
aspects.
Our
report
goes
into
each
of
them
and
kind
of
compares
it
to
to
what
ottawa
does,
but
those,
I
would
say,
were
some
of
the
the
best
proportioned
positions.
Sorry,
and
so
all
these
cities
have
measures
in
place
that
ottawa
can
emulate.
So
we
don't
have
to
be
reinventing
the
wheel
here
next
slide,
please.
J
Please
other
recommendations
for
the
text
include
reducing
the
time
threshold
which
currently
allows
idling
up
to
three
minutes
and
reducing
and
clarifying
the
list
of
exemptions
and
next
slide.
Please
and
writing
clear
definitions
for
relevant
terms
within
the
bylaw
next
slide.
Please
recommendations.
Six
to
nine
deal
with
improving
the
enforcement
and
engagement
beyond
just
the
bylaw
text,
and
these
include
streamlining
enforcement
and
reporting,
as
john
had
touched
on
earlier,
and
educating
the
public
against
a
link
through
an
anti-idling
campaign,
social
media
and
incorporation
of
anti-italian
clauses
into
events
and
contracts
and
the
photo.
J
J
J
I
wasn't
able
to
find
a
copy
of
it
in
my
research,
so
I'm
not
sure
what
state
it's
him,
but
I
did
see
that
it
was
updated
recently,
so
potential
synergy
there,
and
we
also
have
a
recommendation
on
drive
throughs,
which
we
recognize
our
private
property,
but
still
do
contribute.
Emissions
from
idling
cars
next
slide,
please.
J
F
Thank
you
very
much
chair
and
yeah.
Thank
you,
paulina
and
fit
for
your
service
as
well
on
the
environmental
stewardship
advisory
committee.
You
always
make
a
great
contribution
there
and
that
that
group
has,
I
think
you
know
lots
of
thought-provoking
pieces
that
have
come
out
from
from
it
and
we
need
to
continue
to
make
gains,
and
this
is
one
of
the
areas.
I
guess
the
question
would
be.
F
What
is
what
are
the
kind
of
top
things
you
can
do
and
you
mentioned
a
whole
kind
of
list
of
things.
But
this
is
such
a
hard
issue,
because
you
know
obviously,
education
is
is
a
huge
one.
It's
just
reminding
people
turn
off
your
engine
when
you're
you're,
not
in
need
of
it.
You
know,
but
but
are
there?
J
B
J
Kind
of
making
it
more
clear
that
it
is
trying
to
reduce
insurance
footprint
footprint
and
that
everyone
contributes
to
that
footprint.
Otherwise
I
mean
when
it
comes
to
enforcement.
It
is
tricky
because,
like
you
say,
it
is
very
much
a
time
sensitive
item
having
citizens
be
able
to
call
in
or
or
report
idlers
more
easily
is
is
one
item
there.
J
I
think
right
now
we
have
to
go
through
3-1-1
and
then
there's
the
whole
process
of
a
3-1-1
agent
dispatching
to
a
file
officer
and
then
the
bile
officer
having
to
go
over
and
then
check
and
scope
it
out.
If
we
can
do
online
reporting,
maybe
that's
one
thing
and
you
know
differentiating
between
you
know
individuals
and
corporate
vehicles.
Idling
is
also
you
know,
a
step
because
there
are
kind
of
I
think,
different
ways
that
corporate
vehicles
can
can
be.
L
J
Than
individual
vehicles,
when
it's
just
just
a
private
person-
and
I
think
clarifying
really-
you
know
the
time-
the
thresholds
and
exemptions,
because
right
now
there
are
absolute
cases
where
idling
needs
to
needs
to
happen.
Whether
it's
for
an
emergency
situation
or
a
vehicle
is,
is
actively
being
operated
and
needs
and
needs
that
energy,
so
clarifying
those
exemptions
and
specifying
exactly
what
is
considered
idling
so
making
it
clear
for
bylaw
to
know
what
they
have
to
enforce
and
then
expanding
it
to
other
things
that
maybe
aren't
currently
in
the
bylaws.
J
J
And
then
maybe
my
last
point
is
just
making
I
I
mentioned
earlier,
but
incorporating
anti-idling
considerations
into
investment
contracts.
So
if
the
city
is
going
to
be
contracting
a
lot
of
vehicular
work
to
a
company
making
sure
that
it's
clear
in
the
contract
that
there
is
an
expectation
not
to
idle
for
events
taking
place
on
city
property,
if
you're
going
to
be
catering
or
food
trucks
or
whatever
it
may
be,
incorporating
that
as
well
sorry
I'll
wrap
up.
A
All
right,
thank
you
for
your
question,
so
thank
you,
paulina
for
your
time
today,
so
questions
to
to
staff.
I
I
know
that
I
know
council
regularly
want
to
make
a
comment
just
because
there
is
a
reference
to
auto
public
health
in
here,
because
we,
while
we
can't
direct
our
public
health
and
the
board
to
do
anything,
the
the
motion
from
us
specifically
requests
consideration
of
something
which
we
can't
do
so
I'll
go
to
cancer
regulate
first
and
then
also
if
anyone
has
any
questions
for
staff
on
this.
M
Thank
you
chair.
I
agree
with
you.
The
motion
does
say
request
and
and
that
that
is
appropriate
in
the
circumstances,
and-
and
I
understand
the
you
know
the
importance
of
having
this
discussion
it
it's
too
bad
that
this
could
have
been
raised
at
the
port
of
health
meeting
last
night,
which
member
menard
is
part
of
as
well,
and
we
could
have
had
that
discussion
because
we
don't
meet
again
until
september.
M
Fortunately,
we,
dr
etches,
is
available
for
this
meeting
she's
monitoring
this
meeting.
If
anybody
has
any
any
questions
for
her
around
this,
she
she's
available
to
answer
them.
I
guess
the
concern
is:
is
around
some
of
the
things
that
are
being
requested
of
public
health,
for
example
at
public
health.
M
When
consulted
my
understanding
indicated
that
they
would
amplify
by
way
of
social
media,
any
programs
or
education
that
city
bylaw
staff
put
together
and-
and
I
think
that's
that's
still-
the
position
of
public
health,
so
we're
not
generally
in
in
the
in
the
role
of
developing
signage
for
for
bylaw
enforcement
or
education.
That's
not
something
that
public
health
generally
does.
M
So
again,
dr
etches
is
available.
I
I
don't
know
if,
if
the
perhaps
the
motion
could
be
re,
be
reworded
somewhat
to
reflect
what
public
health,
in
accordance
with
what
dr
etches
had
to
say
to
me
this
morning,
is
able
to
do
or
is
prepared
to
do
in
these
circumstances
and
in
terms
of
what
they
would
normally
do
in
terms
of
interactions
with
the
city
and
bylaws.
A
M
What
I'm
suggesting,
I
think
we
want
this
to
be
a
good
news
story.
I
don't
want
this
going
to
the
board
of
health
in
the
fall
on
the
board
of
health,
saying
we're
not
we're
not
comfortable
with
this
recommendation,
so
we
have
to
play
with
it
at
the
board
of
health.
I
think
if
we
had
a
friendlier
recommendation
from
committee,
then
then
that
might
be
might
be
a
better
way
to
do
it
and
and
a
more
positive
story
all
around
how
different
facets
the
city
can
get
together
and
work
on
the
problem.
M
A
Need
to
to
to
consider
too
much
I
mean
you
could
just
have
it
be
that
therefore
be
for
resolve.
The
council
request
that
a
committee
request
that
a
public
education
science
campaign
be
developed
through
collaboration
with
auto
public,
with
auto
board
of
health,
save
auto
staff,
including
I
mean
you
could
just
you,
could
just
flip
it
around
and
have
the
consideration
for
the
development
of
the
program.
M
A
M
That
to
me
that
fits
within
classes
different
from
what
you're
digging
well,
I
think
it's
different
collaboration
suggests
to
me
that
that
they
would
they
would
be
developing
it
as
well.
What
they're
saying
is
they
will
amplify
the
program
that
the
city
comes
up
with,
but
again
I've
said
several
times
dr
etches
is
available
to
to
clarify.
If,
if,
if
people
wish
that
to
happen,.
B
Thank
you
chair.
I
just
have
a
quick
question.
The
point
was
made
that
there
was
10
tickets
issued,
but
my
experience
with
our
bylaw
people
is
they
don't
go
into
a
situation
looking
to
write
a
ticket,
so
I'm
more
interested
in
how
many
warnings
they
may
have
given
out
that
you
know
they
may
walk
up
to
someone.
That's
idling
and
say:
hey
you're
going
to
get
a
ticket.
If
you
don't
turn
that
car
off,
because
we
have
an
idling
bylaw
and
I
would
think
in
most
cases
that
car
stops
idling
right
away.
B
B
B
B
So,
first
of
all,
we
need
to
arrive,
be
able
to
substantiate
that
there
is
a
violation,
so
they
have
to
be
idling
longer
than
three
hours
or
sorry,
three
minutes
and
a
lot
of
people
you
know
aren't
aware
of
all
the
the
the
except
exemptions
that
are
are
in
the
bylaws.
So
you
know
when
we
do
these
investigations.
Sometimes
it's
you
know,
because
of
temperature,
there's
no
violation
because
of
the
type
of
vehicle
or
the
activity
that's
taking
place.
There
is
an
exemption
in
place,
so
no
violation.
B
Okay,
so
roger
40
written
warnings,
as
you
said,
there
has
to
be
a
violation
before
they
can
do
the
warnings
by
chance.
Do
you
keep
track
or
have
any
sense
of
how
many
times
one
of
your
officers
may
speak
to
somebody,
that's
idling
the
car
and
and
give
them
like
the
verbal
warning?
Okay,
don't
go
past
this
time.
B
B
A
Thank
you
and
roger
just
to
confirm
sorry,
just
while
you're
there,
I
just
confirmed
the
the
this
would
be
something
that
you'd
be
looking
at.
I
have
to
assume
at
some
point.
You
have
been
looking
at
updating
this
bylaw
regardless
because
it
is,
it
is
now
15
years
old.
So
with
this,
this
direction.
You'll
you'll,
seek
to
make
this
a
part
of
your
work
plan
for
next
term.
B
C
Just
to
confirm
is
this
general
questions
or
specific
about
okay?
I
just
want
to
ask
staff
if
I
may
chair,
how
is
it
communicated
to
staff
who
drive
city
vehicles
about
the
idling
bylaw?
There
are
oodles
of
examples:
city
vehicles,
I
observe
idling,
not
during
minus
40
weather,
not
those
extreme
weather,
but
on
a
daily
basis.
If
I
go
out,
there
are
vehicles
idling,
so
just
from
a
information
perspective,
how
are
city
staff
informed
and
reminded
about
idling.
B
Thank
you,
chair
and
council
brockington
as
well
great
question.
I'm
not
aware
of
any
proactive
notifications,
certainly
something
we'd
be
looking
at
and,
and
I
think
it's
a
great
suggestion,
just
like
any
other
bylaw
with
whether
it's
you
know
no
smoking
in
the
workplace,
etc.
You
know
staff
are
just
expected
to
actually
follow
through
and
follow
the
laws
as
well,
while
they're
working.
However,
I
believe
a
proactive
communication
strategy
would
be
very
helpful
in
this
case,
so
we'll
certainly
take
it
away.
C
Thanks,
I
appreciate
that
and
I
am
willing
to
accept
that
some
people
actually
don't
know
I'm
willing
to
to
agree
with
that
statement,
but
I
do
believe
that
the
employer
has
a
responsibility
to
remind
employees
about
expectations
and
the
many
benefits
of
non-idling.
So
if
that
can
just
be
noted
and
and
implemented,
that
would
be
appreciated.
Thank
you.
A
M
I
I
have
some
wording
that
dr
etch
has
just
sent
me
after
consulting
the
staff
and
I'll
just
read
it
quickly.
If
it's,
if
it's
agreeable,
we
can
to
the
mover
we
can,
we
can
share
that
therefore
be
resolved.
The
council
requests
the
ottawa
board
of
health,
consider
collaborating
with
city
of
ottawa
staff,
including
public
information
and
media
relations
and
emergency
and
protective
services
to
amplify
a
public
education
and
signage
campaign
to
reduce
unnecessary
idling.
M
F
I
think
just
given
what
the
chair
has
said,
because
here's
the
thing
councillor
egg
light,
we
we
did
have
an
opportunity
to
review
amongst
emergency
protective
services
and
also
with
the
ottawa
public
health
and
the
clerk's
office.
Before
this
came
forward.
I
think
what
you're
saying
is
is
likely
friendly,
but
I
just
want
to
get
to
the
crux
of
it
before
council.
So
we've
got
a
good
understanding
of
what
we're
talking
about
here.
It
seems
like
there's,
maybe
a
willingness
or
unwillingness
to
potentially
help
lead
or
collaborate
on
this
one.
A
A
So
so,
because
yeah
we
want
to
make
sure
the
wording
captures
it
and
not
that
the
direction
is
that
we
amplify
a
message
that
never
actually
gets
created.
So,
let's
just
let's
just
pull
it
off
for
now
we
can
in
fairness,
we
can
even
refer
that
one
to
council.
We
won't
vote
on
that
second
recommendation,
which
is
referred
to
counsel
and
then
we'll
come
back
on
and
we'll
we'll
fiddle
with
the
wording
to
make
it
amenable
to
all
sides.
F
A
A
A
E
E
So,
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
present
this
morning.
My
name
is
julia
robinson
and
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
the
climate
change
and
resiliency
team,
and
I
will
be
making
the
presentation
today,
but
I'm
joined
by
representatives
from
several
departments.
If
there
are
any
specific
questions
in
today's
presentation,
I
will
provide
a
brief
background
on
how
this
project
supports
the
climate
change
master
plan
and
climate
resiliency
strategy,
as
well
as
an
overview
of
the
scope
of
the
project.
The
bulk
of
the
presentation
will
focus
on
report
findings,
including
the
priority
climate
risks
next
slide.
E
E
The
report
includes
the
following:
recommendations:
receive
the
climate,
vulnerability
and
risk
assessment,
technical
report,
direct
staff
to
develop
the
climate
resiliency
strategy,
direct,
all
departments
to
consider
the
findings
in
city
plans,
policies
and
programs,
as
well
as
the
strategic
plan
and
direct
staff
to
consider
resourcing
needs
both
to
develop
the
strategy
and
to
accelerate
actions
on
known
risks.
Next
slide,
please:
the
project
is
a
key
deliverable
of
the
climate
change
master
plan
and
responds
to
the
2019
climate
emergency
declaration.
E
Since
the
approval
of
the
climate
change
master
plan
in
january
2020,
the
city
has
done
a
substantial
amount
of
work
on
reducing
ghd
emissions
through
energy
evolution.
The
climate
vulnerability
and
risk
assessment
is
a
key
milestone
in
preparing
for
the
impacts
of
climate
change
and
building
climate
resilience.
Next
slide.
Please.
E
E
E
E
We'll
then
start
developing
the
climate
resiliency
strategy
and
propose
to
return
to
committee
and
council
by
the
end
of
2023
next
slide.
Please,
the
scope
of
the
climate,
vulnerability
and
risk
assessment
is
broad.
It
included
understanding
and
assessing
the
impacts
of
a
changing
climate
on
our
community
infrastructure,
environment
and
economy.
E
A
key
objective
of
this
approach
was
to
build
understanding
across
all
city
departments
to
lay
the
foundation
to
embed
climate
preparedness
in
all
city
services.
Next
slide,
in
addition
to
the
internal
engagement,
the
project
involved,
both
public
and
stakeholder
engagement,
a
dedicated
engage
ottawa
page
was
was
established
in
march
2021,
and
we
received
more
than
500
survey
responses
from
residents,
businesses
and
organizations.
E
E
So
this
slide
summarizes
the
number
of
priority
climate
risks.
Approximately
150
climate
impacts
were
assessed
related
to
community
infrastructure,
environment
and
economy.
40
priority
risks
have
been
identified
that
need
action
in
the
next
one
to
three
years.
Another
25
require
action
in
the
next
44
to
7
years,
and
the
remaining
risks
will
be
monitored
to
see
if
current
adaptive
measures
are
sufficient.
E
E
E
So,
as
I
was
saying,
the
climate
projections
examined
the
trends
across
three
time
horizons
compared
to
a
historical
baseline
of
1981
to
2010.
So
we
are
currently
in
the
2030s
time
horizon
note,
in
particular
the
increase
in
the
number
of
days
above
30
degrees.
This
will
increase
from
a
historical
average
of
11
per
year
to
28
per
year
in
the
next
decades
and
continue
to
rise
drastically.
E
E
So
these
are
the
top
risks
that
relate
to
extreme
heat,
drought
and
humidity.
From
a
health
perspective,
extreme
heat
affects
everyone,
but
certain
groups
are
much
more
vulnerable.
These
include
low-income
populations,
especially
those
with
poor
access
to
air,
conditioning
or
cooling
and
those
who
are
homeless
or
precariously
housed.
It
also
includes
older
adults
and
children
and
people
who
live
alone,
people
with
pre-existing
health
conditions,
people
who
work
outside
and
athletes
reducing
the
impacts
of
heat
on
people
affects
many
cert
city
services,
health,
community,
social
services
parks
and
recreation
and
transportation.
E
The
top
heat
risks
to
infrastructure
relate
to
the
need
for
additional
cooling
in
buildings,
and
this
is
an
example
where
the
community
risks
are
higher
than
for
city
assets
as
many
schools,
low-income
housing
and
long-term
care
facilities.
Lack
air
conditioning
top
heat
risks
also
relate
to
the
natural
environment
as
well
as
agricultural
systems.
Next
slide,
please.
E
E
This
also
creates
conditions
for
new
or
intensifies
disease
factors
and
illnesses,
illnesses
like
lyme
disease
or
west
nile
virus.
Our
economy
will
also
be
affected
by
reduced
winter
tourism
and
recreation
and,
as
I
mentioned,
freeze
saw
will
affect
many
kinds
of
infrastructure
assets,
impacting
both
operations
and
maintenance,
as
well
as
asset
renewal.
Next
slide.
E
E
E
The
top
risks
relate
to
direct
damage
to
property
and
infrastructure,
reduced
access
when
roads
are
passed
or
flooded,
impacts
to
the
natural
environment,
physical,
mental
and
financial
health
impacts,
especially
to
those
who
are
financially
strained
or
have
poor
social
supports
and
agricultural
impacts.
Next
slide.
E
We
don't
have
statistics
for
extreme
weather
events,
because
climate
models
are
not
effective
for
predicting
the
frequency
of
extreme
weather.
However,
the
climate
projection
study
concluded
that
increasing
temperature
and
precipitation
create
the
conditions
for
more
freezing
rain
and
extreme
weather
events
like
severe
winter
storms,
tornadoes
wildfire
and
drought.
E
E
The
top
extreme
weather
risks
relate
both
to
direct
damage
to
people
and
property,
and
also
indirect
amp
damage
from
power.
Outages,
more
freezing
rain
and
ice
is
of
concern
from
a
health
and
safety
perspective,
as
well
as
winter
maintenance
of
road,
sidewalks
and
paths,
and
while
we
have
excellent
capacity
to
deal
with
emergency
events,
the
increased
severity
or
frequency
of
extreme
weather
events
will
strain
emergency
and
social
services,
both
those
provided
by
the
city
and
provided
by
community
agencies
last
month's
severe
storm
and
extensive
power
outage
is
a
clear
example
of
this.
E
Repeated
or
sequential
events
will
also
produce
additional
strain
on
more
at-risk
populations,
especially
if
access
to
social
services
is
disrupted.
This
could
be
by
power,
outages
or
unsafe
road
conditions,
for
example,
and
again
these
result
in
increased
physical,
mental
and
financial
health
impacts.
E
There
are
also
indirect
impacts
on
all
city
services
due
to
more
frequent
redeployment
to
assist
during
an
emergency,
and
our
economy
will
be
affected
due
to
disruptions
in
the
local
business
next
slide,
please,
the
last
climate
hazard
category
is
global
climate
change.
In
addition
to
considering
the
impacts
of
local
climate
patterns,
ottawa
will
also
be
affected
by
climate
change
experienced
around
the
world.
E
The
top
risks
relate
to
supply
chain
instability,
causing
increased
costs
or
reduced
availability
of
goods
and
services.
These
risks
affect
all
services
and
sectors,
as
well
as
populations
who
are
less
able
to
cope
with
the
additional
costs.
Next
slide,
please
the
final
few
slides
focus
on
early
actions,
gaps
and
next
steps.
E
While
the
climate
resiliency
strategy
is
being
developed,
we
have
identified
opportunities
to
take
action
to
mitigate
known
climate
risks
through
current
and
planned
projects,
plans
and
programs.
So,
for
example,
the
official
plan
includes
new
policies
on
extreme
heat,
flood
risk
mitigation
and
sustainable
and
resilient
design.
Master
plans
are
currently
considering
climate
change
as
they
are
being
developed.
E
Detailed
climate
risk
assessments
have
been
completed
for
the
water
and
wastewater
treatment
plants
and
specific
adaptation
plans
are
currently
being
developed,
and
final
example
is
that
ottawa
public
health
is
leading
a
climate
change
and
health
vulnerability
assessment
and
adaptation
plan,
with
an
initial
focus
on
extreme
heat
next
slide.
Please,
the
climate
vulnerability
and
risk
assessment
also
identified
broader
gaps
and
opportunities.
E
E
A
A
G
A
G
G
And
just
want
to
say
I'm
speaking
again
on
behalf
of
cafes
on
this
important
next
piece
in
implementing
the
climate
change
master
plan
and
I'd
like
to
say
that
the
focus
here
is
really
on
the
community
and
citizens.
Issues
cafes
has
heard
from
numerous
members
about
adaptation
and
they
are
worried
about
the
title:
how
protected
are
we
from
climate
impacts?
G
Next
slide
piece
again,
you
know
about
cafes
the
point
to
note
here:
I'm
not
quite
sure
why
this
is
so
low
on
the
screen.
We're
missing
a
cut
off
here,
the
third
point's
not
showing
up,
but
anyway
the
the
highlighted
points
are
important
here,
because
the
what
we're
trying
to
say
here
is
that
cafes
represents
local
groups
and
people
which
are
going
to
be
important
for
local
solutions
to
climate
impacts.
G
Local
solutions
will
mostly
money.
The
solutions
will
be
local
and
not
city-wide,
and
the
other
point
is
that
cafes
is
a
different
voice
and
in
some
cases,
trusted
differently
than
the
city.
So
I
think
that's
important
to
consider
next
slide.
Please
we're.
I
will
be
briefly
touching
on
five
points
with
the
lens
of
community
concerns
and
the
desired
actions.
We
want
to
see
next
slide,
please.
G
G
About
the
six
recommendations,
staff
has
worked
hard
and
I
applaud
julie
and
her
team
they've
done
a
good
job
with
what
they
have,
but
I
do
think
we
want
to
comment
on
some
of
the
recommendations,
we're
glad
to
see
the
cbra,
but
it's
two
years
late
and
it's
a
study.
It's
not
actions
this
the
plan,
or
this
will
really
not
be
coming
forward.
The
plan
with
the
money
and
the
actions
won't
be
coming
forward
until
the
end
of
2023,
which
means
it
won't
affect
budgets
and
be
in
budgets
till
2025..
G
The
community
is
generally
not
aware
or
engaged
yes,
there's
been
stakeholders,
but
there's
a
million
people
in
ottawa
and
most
of
them
are
very
worried
and
don't
know
what
to
do.
Governance
has
been
talked
about
fry
over
three
years,
but
there's
been
very
little
change
in
the
siloing
in
the
bringing
everybody
to
work
together.
This
is
a
citywide
report.
Solutions
need
to
be
local
and
there,
as
julia
pointed
out,
there's
some
very
big
gaps
next
slide.
G
G
We
need
funding
immediately
of
all
those
40
high
risks
and
the
citizens
need
to
be
communicated
engaged
with
next
and
final
slide,
so
the
citizens-
I
don't
want
to
be
cassandra
here,
but
we
are
not
prepared.
We
are
not
investing
properly
and
as
a
result,
at
this
stage
the
city's
prosperity
and
livability
is
at
risk.
But
this
is
not
all
bad
news.
This
is
a
turning
point.
We
can't
kick
this
to
the
next
council.
G
The
public
wants
action
and
cafes
is
ready
to
help.
We
can
help
mobilize,
we
can
help
inform
and,
most
importantly,
we
can
help
build
trust
to
work
together,
and
we
really
think
that
you
need
to
move
forward
much
more
boldly
and
look
at
some
of
these
recommendations
in
different
way.
Next
and
final
slide
and
I'm
happy
to
take
questions.
L
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
mr
chair
and
councillors,
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
you
this
morning.
I
would
like
to
begin
by
commending
city
council
for
commissioning
this
report.
It
is
critical.
We
have
a
clear
picture
of
the
risk
that
all
of
us
as
inhabitants
of
ottawa
can
expect
to
face
as
a
result
of
our
destabilized
climate
so
that
we
can
prepare
for
and
respond
to
this
existential
crisis
with
the
seriousness
it
deserves.
L
I
also
applaud
the
introductory
paragraph
of
the
executive
summary
for
a
straightforward
statement
of
the
problem.
These
impacts
will
continue
to
intensify
otto
will
become
quote
warmer
wetter
and
have
more
unpredictable
extreme
weather
events,
unquote,
like
floods,
heat
waves
and
tornadoes,
and
I
just
want
to
note
here
that
the
following
comments,
I'm
going
to
make
are
in
reference
to
appendix
c
the
priority
risk
for
all
hazards.
L
Even
more
alarming
to
me
was
that
seven
impacts
were
classified
as
very
high
risk
for
either
the
city
or
the
community
and
six
of
those
applied
to
both
city
and
community.
That
makes
a
total
of
29
impacts
that
are
identified
as
either
high
or
very
high
risk.
Honestly,
I
had
not
expected
there
to
be
so
many.
L
For
example,
the
very
high
risk
of
decreased
agricultural
yields
due
to
extreme
heat
or
drought
conditions
or
late
planting
is
compounded
by
the
very
high
risk
of
the
spread
of
invasive
plants
and
agricultural
pests.
These
combined
risks
pose
a
magnified
hazard
for
both
commercial
croplands
and
home
gardens,
and
I'd
like
to
point
out
that
I
personally
am
in
a
privileged
position.
L
I
have
a
lot
of
resources
to
deal
with
the
effects
of
climate
change,
but,
as
the
report
thankfully
identifies
so
many
people
in
our
community
do
not
speaking
from
my
own
perspective
as
someone
who
likes
winter
and
hopes
to
live
another
10
plus
years,
I'm
in
my
60s.
I
am
saddened
to
see
projections
for
the
2030s
of
a
10
decrease
in
snowfall
and
a
13
increase
in
winter-free
spa
situations
that
does
that
destroy
what
good
snow
we
may
receive.
L
Situations
like
these
contribute
to
the
very
high
risk
of
lessened,
outdoor
sports
and
recreation
like
skiing,
skating
and
snowmobiling,
due
to
a
shortened
and
compromised
winter
season.
I'm
sure
many
of
you,
if
not
all
of
you,
have
already
experienced
missing
out
on
skating
on
the
canal
or
skiing
or
snowmobiling
through
the
woods
or
just
taking
a
pleasant
walk
in
the
winter
weather
because
of
a
sudden
rise
in
temperature.
That
makes
your
outing
less
than
ideal
or
even
dangerous.
L
Conversely,
as
someone
who
does
not
do
well
when
the
humidex
is
high,
I
am
dismayed
to
see
the
risk
of
quote
an
increased
number
and
severity
of
heat
related
health
and
safety
issues
to
emergency
responders,
disproportionately
impacted
populations
and
active
recreation
users.
End
quote:
this
is
identified
as
very
high
for
both
city
and
the
community
when
you
consider
that
the
first
responders
are
the
people
we
rely
on
for
help
when
we
experience
severe
heat
events.
L
L
Like
most
reports,
referencing
climate
change,
the
climate
change,
vulnerability,
rift
and
risk
assessment
mentions
that
we
need
to
keep
the
rise
in
earth's
global
average
temperature
to
1.5
degrees
celsius.
On
page
one
of
the
executive
executive
summary
the
chart
indicates
that
by
the
2030s
we
can
expect
the
average
temperature
to
be
1.8
degrees
higher
than
normal
for
city
that
is
often
experienced,
minus
30
degrees
temperature,
a
rise
of
1.8
degrees,
doesn't
seem
like
a
problem.
L
F
Thank
you
cecile,
for
being
here
and
presenting
today.
I
agree.
It's
it's
alarming.
What
we're
seeing
in
front
of
us
and
the
risks
that
are
coming
to
our
city
in
only
a
short
few
years,
we've
already
seen
the
risks
manifest
themselves
in
lots
of
counselors
wards
right
across
the
city
with
multiple
emergencies
that
have
happened.
This
term
of
council,
I'm
wondering
what
what
your
understanding
is
of
you
know
the
funds
that
are
being
put
towards
this
as
a
priority.
L
My
background
is
not
in
funds
at
all,
and
I
have
to
admit
that
my
awareness
of
what
goes
on
at
city
is
it's
just
really
recent
that
I've
become
more
interested
in
and
concerned
about,
city
functioning
and
politics.
So,
unfortunately
I
can't
speak
to
anything
about
funding
other
than
I
really
do
hope
that
the
council
allocates
funds
to
be
able
to
carry
out
these
actions
that
we
need,
because,
as
the
report
clearly
points
out,
this
is
a
threat
to
citizens
of
ottawa
personally,
but
also
a
threat
to
our
economy
and
economic
stability.
F
F
We
don't
have
a
lot
of
focus
on
this
budget,
for
the
risks
that
we're
seeing
in
front
of
us
now
in
terms
of
medication,
adaptation
and
the
ones
you've
highlighted
in
your
presentation
are
the
risks
we
need
to
step
up
and
I
think
we
have
a
great
plan,
but
we
need
that
funding
to
follow.
So,
thank
you
very
much.
A
A
We
know
that
a
lot
of
the
funding
in
the
budget
comes
from
term
council
priorities.
We've
always
had
I
shouldn't
say
always,
but
in
my
time
we've
always
had
climate
as
a
german
council
priority,
but
we
haven't
funded
it
as
much
as
we
obviously
should.
We
have
well
with
the
next
item.
You'll
see.
The
main
source
of
funding
is
something
that
we
can't
guarantee,
which,
which
is
the
challenge
on
the
specific
items
within
within
energy
evolution.
A
P
P
All
of
that.
The
kind
of
thinking
that
we
brought
to
our
new
official
plan
when
we
talked
about
livable,
walkable,
local
communities
and
it's
all
very
interrelated,
and
I
think
we
have
a
lot
going
for
us,
but
you
we
have
to
personalize
our
actions.
Now
I
read
from
my
neighborhood
in
rural
ottawa
south
there
are
fears,
they're,
very
immediate.
P
P
So
I
have
a
number
of
suggestions
for
immediate
action
and
by
the
way
I
can't
wait
till
the
end
of
2023,
because
from
a
public
health
point
of
view
and
the
fears
in
people's
minds
and
the
wanting
to
be
ready
and
prepared
and
to
know
what
their
responsibilities
are
going
to
be
are
really
with
us.
Now
it'll
come
up
during
the
municipal
election
because
of
that
promotion,
people's
minds.
P
So
there's
a
suggestions.
I
have
yes,
we
should
have
a
climate
czar
at
the
city,
but
I'm
going
to
say
that
every
counselor
is
going
to
have
to
be
the
climate
czar
as
well
to
pull
this
all
together
community
by
community
neighborhood
by
neighborhood,
and
this
includes
bringing
people
that
are
residents
or
to
be
residents
with
their
local
businesses
and
their
local
amenities
together
to
really
plan
my
neighbors
are
talking
about.
P
P
P
P
We
are
learning
very
quickly
the
the
value
of
wetlands,
both
the
significant
wetlands
but,
more
importantly,
the
non-significant
wetlands.
Your
latest
flood
plan
has
a
recommendation
from
our
conservation
authorities
to
protect
all
wetlands.
It's
not
something
you
can
take
away
from
one
community
and
stick
it
somewhere
else
as
a
mitigating
factor.
P
I
think
the
time
is
now
to
have
a
special
fund
to
show
the
city
is
really
serious
in
working
with
communities
for
communities
to
do
their
startup
work
and
making
their
own
local
plans
and
to
do
it
in
collaboration
with
all
the
good
staff
work
going
on,
it
could
be
a
startup
fund,
and
that
is
really
important.
Also,
we
have
the
community-wide
community
organizations
who
are
ready
to
be
your
contractors
to
be
your
consultants
to
be
hired
to
work
with
our
networks
and
our
community
associations.
P
We
need
an
annual
citizen
climate
assembly,
much
like
we
did
back
in
the
1980s
in
writing
a
green
plan
for
ottawa.
So
these
are
things
that
we
can
do
now.
They're
small
cost
items,
but
there
has
to
be
an
avenue
available
to
work
with
all
city
staff
and
I'm
thinking
particularly
of
the
board
of
health,
I'm
thinking
of
transportation,
I'm
thinking
of
the
planning
department
and
all
the
development
applications
there
are
receiving
immediately
and
it
goes
on
and
on
so.
I
think.
O
Thank
you,
chair
thanks
mary,
actually,
you
you
did
address
in
your
comments,
the
questions
that
the
question
I
had
around
around
funding.
I
do
want
to
just
emphasize,
though,
and
I'm
glad
that
you're
here
from
a
rural
area,
often
we
I
mean
this-
is
a
very
large
city,
very
diversity
in
terms
of
geography
as
well,
and
I
I
represent
as
you
as
you
may
know,
that
the
downtown
and
we
worry
about
our
trees.
We
don't
have
a
very
healthy
tree
canopy.
O
We
have
dozens
that
come
down
for
different
reasons
every
year
and,
for
example,
my
spring
planting
plan
from
the
city
is
21
trees
this
summer.
So
it's
it's
so
inadequate,
but
it's,
but
it's
very
interesting
to
hear
you
talk
about
that
tree
that
you
need
in
the
rural
area
to
keep.
You
know
to
keep
you
cool
and
to
and
to
capture
carbon,
etc
and
all
of
the
things
healthy
things
that
trees
do
so.
I
really
do
appreciate
hearing
from
you
just
on
just
on
funding.
I
know
you
you
did
touch
on
it.
O
I
guess
I
will
assume
then
or
I'll
ask
you.
Do
you
think
that,
as
a
city,
we
have
sufficient
funding
in
place
to
address
that
the
risks
that
we
have
in
front
of
us,
the
immediate
risk
that
we
have
in
front
of
us?
Even
if
we
were
to
pull
it
from
all
of
the
different
silos
that
we
that
we
point
to
you
as
a
as
a
resident?
And
somebody
who
thinks
about
this
feel
that
the
the
funding
is
is
sufficient
and
and
growing
sufficiently.
P
P
Take
both
these
reports
that
julia
has
been
talking
about.
Most
of
the
people
in
my
community
have
never
heard
about
them.
They
don't
know
how
much
they're
personalized
to
my
community
to
my
area.
Yet
we
work
very
hard
to
look
after
woodlots.
We
look
very
hard,
we'll
work
very
hard
to
look
after
shorelines.
P
P
P
P
We
don't
know,
what's
happening
next
door
because
we're
not
in
high
rises
we're
not
on
those
solid
streets,
it's
very
different
in
different
parts
of
ottawa,
and
I
feel
that
for
the
next
step
in
the
resilient
strategy
is
the
city
has
to
map
from
a
community
perspective.
What
are
the
priorities
for
these
communities?
P
O
Thanks
thanks
mary,
I
I
really
do
I
agree
with
you.
It's
a
it's
something
that
we
need
to
tackle
as
a
city
city-wide,
but
we
do
have
to
understand
that
the
how
the
these
these
risks
impact
every
different
community
and
and
work
together
to
to
to
ensure
that
we
are
looking
at
mitigating
those
risks
for
you
for
everyone
across
the
city,
but
it
is
they.
They
are
very
specific
to
different
communities.
So
I
really
do
appreciate
that
that
perspective.
Thank
you.
Thanks
for
coming
out
thanks,
chair.
A
Thank
you,
yeah.
I
can
certainly
be
challenging
in
the
rural
area
when
you
have
certain
situations
happen
like
like
last
week
or
a
couple
weeks
ago,
I
had
one
of
my
constituents
who
still
had
running
water
and
still
had
good,
sell
signal
and
stuff
because
they
lived
near
tower.
They
were
upset
because
I
wasn't,
I
wasn't
communicating
as
well
as
my
my
urban
counterparts.
A
I
didn't
bother
getting
into
the
into
the
weeds
of
londonville
that
I
had
no
power,
no
cell
signal,
no
water,
no
anything
completely
removed
from
society,
plus
my
car
picked
up
a
flat
tire
during
the
storm
when
I
was
picking
my
son
up
from
work
at
his
no
power
work
establishment.
So
I
had
no
car
for
a
good
three
days
during
that
storm
too.
A
So
I
was
like
completely
disconnected
until
the
tuesday
of
the
storm,
which
is
an
interesting,
interesting
dynamic
in
the
rural
area
that
you
don't
always
consider
and
then
the
part
that
we
that
we
often
forget
and
of
course,
council
regulators
is
council.
Brockton
knows
this.
Some
of
the
pockets
in
the
city
that
have
well
water
is
the
is
the
whole
process
of
bucketing
your
sump
pump
into
the
back
of
your
toilet,
so
you
can
keep
flushing
your
toilet
during
power
just
super
exciting
times.
A
A
A
M
Thanks
chair,
first
of
all,
I
wanted
to
start
off
by
thanking
staff.
I
think
it's
it's
quite
comprehensive
what
they
put
together,
and
I
I
thank
them
for
the
the
briefings
that
we've
received
over
the
last
number
of
days
leading
up
to
the
leading
up
to
the
meeting.
You
know
I
have
the
dubious
distinction
of
representing
one
of
the
wards
that
appears
to
be
a
magnet
for
wind
and
and
tornado
storms.
So
for
my
area,
it's
it's.
M
I
know
it's
something
we
all
struggled
with
after
the
various
storm
events.
You
know
I
know
councilor
gower
was
going
door-to-door
with
materials.
You
can't
always
do
that.
That's
not
always
an
effective
way
to
do
it.
It's
not
always
a
safe
way
to
do
it
after
the
tornado.
Certainly
we
we
had
those
discussions
with
city
staff
and
it
certainly
wasn't
safe
to
send
people
onto
some
streets
and
some
properties
to
share
a
pamphlet
or
information.
M
So
I'm
just
wondering
in
in
again
in
terms
of
the
the
proposal
that's
put
forward,
has
any
thought
been
given
to
when
when
bad
things
happen
when
it
hits
the
fan,
so
to
speak,
how
we
can
have
consistent
communications
about
what
is
available
to
residents
should
have
all
the
best
plans
in
the
world
as
to
what
we
can
do
to
help
you
and
what
resources
they
are.
But
if
you,
if
the
community
doesn't
know
about
it,
so
I'm
wondering
if
there's
been
any
discussion,
I
know.
M
After
the
tornado
we
had
some
discussion
at
council
around
working
out
an
arrangement
with
one
or
two
of
the
local
radio
stations,
which
tend
to
be
the
most
consistent.
You
have
a
battery
or
or
crank
radio
to
connect
where
there'd
be
a
fixed
time,
for
example,
on
after
storm
events.
So
every
hour
on
the
hour,
there'd
be
a
brief
report
about
what's
available.
A
M
I
just
wanted
to
build
on
what
I
think
I
I
guess
she
was
your
constituent,
the
last
the
last
delegate
was
there,
because
you
know
that
that
is
a
problem,
certainly
in
the
rural
areas.
But
you
know
in
in
the
glands,
for
example,
there
was
no.
There
was
no
internet
there's
some
places
in
my
world
that
still
have
no
internet,
so
communications
are
a
real
challenge
around
this.
So
I
will
save
the
question
for
tomorrow
then,
but
I
I
just
thought
in
deference
to
your
to
your.
M
A
No,
absolutely
I
mean
that's
the
thing
with
with
the
with
climate
resiliency,
when
you're
building
in
climate
resiliency,
it's
it's
more
than
just
you
know,
sometimes
environmental
policy,
it's
how
you
respond
to
two
things:
how
we
communicate
with
residents,
because
it
isn't
as
easy
as
it
was.
I
mean
as.
A
Isn't
as
easy
as
it
was
in
1998
1998,
you
had
wall-to-wall
radio
coverage.
People
had
portable
radios
in
their
home.
People
had
land
lines.
You
know
once
my
I
have
a
cell
signal,
booster
in
my
house
once
that,
once
my
power
goes
out,
my
cell
signal
goes
out.
I
I
can't
I
can't
do
much
with
my
phone
and
I
don't
have
a
landline
anymore.
So
it's
it's
it's
it's
incredible!
D
Of
course
we
appreciate
all
the
the
efforts
of
of
hydro
in
terms
of,
in
effect,
rebuilding
the
grid
in
a
very
short
period
of
time,
and
they
did
yeoman's
work,
but
I
think
it
is
important
for
us
to
explore
the
possibilities
for
improved
communications,
especially
amongst
different
city
partners,
hydro
ottawa,
being
a
very
important
one.
You
know,
since
we
are
the
majority
shareholder,
so
I
I
also
look
forward
to
asking
some
of
those
questions
at
council
tomorrow.
B
B
You
know
sops
or
standard
guidelines
for
dealing
with
everything
and
that's
what
the
emergency
management
program
is
about
is
having
plans
for
major
events,
and
we
keep
learning
and
doing
after
action
reports
after
every
major
event,
so
that
if
we
encounter
them
again
in
the
future,
we'll
be
better
prepared.
So
I
I
agree
that
it'd
be
nice
to
have
a
very
comprehensive
plan
for
absolutely
everything,
and
that
would
be
the
goal
in
the
future.
With
regards
to
you
know,
climate
resiliency
and
then
how?
How
do
we
address
these
main
concerns?
B
And
then,
let's
put
a
plan
in
place
to
ensure
that
they're
they're
addressed
so
we'll
also
be
discussing
this,
the
next
term
of
council
with
regards
to
public
safety
and
a
response
to
these
types
of
events.
That
seem
to
be
coming
back
up
so
excellent
point
making
notes
and
obviously
we'll
be
addressing
that
in
the
future
as
well.
D
I
appreciate
that
I
know
every
event
is
unique
and
you
know
I
really
do
want
to
recognize
the
incredible
response
of
of
our
first
responders,
as
well
as
other
city
staff,
in
terms
of
the
the
previous
event
that
we
had
just
a
few
weeks
back
a
major
net,
a
a
major
natural
disaster.
In
my
estimation,
that
impacted
many
many
awards
across
the
city.
But
of
course
you
know,
I
would
encourage
more
discussion
with
other
partners
such
as
the
red
cross.
D
F
Thank
you
very
much
chair
thanks
to
staff
for
the
report,
I'm
just
hoping
staff
can
elaborate
on
the
highest
risk
categories
that
we're
seeing.
I
know
it's
you've
actually
done
a
great
appendix
d
here
and
I
encourage
all
council
members
to
look
at
that.
We
haven't
had
a
chance
second
document
and
goes
through
a
lot
of
the
risks
here.
It's
a
large
document,
but
but
it
outlines
them
so,
just
just
in
terms
of
what
are
the
largest
risks
facing
the
city
of
ottawa
as
a
result
of
this
report,.
E
E
We
do
have
40
of
the
priority
risks
and
they
relate
to
all
of
the
climate
hazards.
Extreme
heat,
changing
seasons,
precipitation
global
events,
as
well
as
the
supply
chain
disruptions
that
we'll
see
from
global
climate
change.
If
I
were
to
highlight
just
a
couple,
I
would
say
that
extreme
heat
and
we've
heard
delegations
speak
to
this
already.
The
health
impacts
around
extreme
heat.
The
carry-on
effects
of
what
that
means
for
city
services,
but
also
within
our
community,
will
be
a
a
key
challenge.
E
And
then
I
would
say
the
other
clear
one
clearly
is
about
our
emergency
response
to
extreme
events
and
has,
as
has
already
been
discussed,
the
city
really
works
very
closely
with
many
partners
in
emergency
preparedness
and
response,
and
but
we
know
that
more
needs
to
be
done
just
because
of
the
frequency
and
the
severity
of
the
risks.
The
final
point
I'll
make-
and
I
think
this
was
spoken
to
very
eloquently
by
the
delegations-
is
that
this
is
not
just
a
city
issue.
E
This
is
clearly
a
community
issue
as
well
and
so
moving
forward
as
we're
developing
the
strategy,
we
really
need
to
work
hand
in
hand
with
different
partners,
businesses,
institutions,
organizations
and
communities
themselves,
both
to
raise
awareness
around
what
these
risks
are
and
to
identify
collectively.
What
can
be
done.
F
E
F
F
We've
identified
those
high
risks
and
there's
some
funding
to
start
there,
but
in
the
future
we're
asking
to
come
back
later
on
and
it
sounds
like
we
don't
have
that
plan
in
place
of
course,
at
this
time,
and
that
there's
a
lot
more
funding
needed.
I
guess
the
last
question
just
on
that
piece
is:
I
would
more
allocation
to
resources.
F
Do
two
things
help
us
save
money
by
lowering
our
emissions
for
higher
cost
items
and
number
two.
Would
it
help
us
with
other
orders
of
government?
You
know:
are
we
leaving
money
on
the
table
with
other
orders
of
government
in
terms
of
a
one?
Third,
one?
Third,
one
third,
which
we
know
we
need
the
other
orders
to
help
us
on
this.
E
Report,
thank
you,
counselor.
I
think
you
raise
an
excellent
point
around
the
need
to
leverage
funding
whenever
possible
and
again
there
are.
The
staff
are
already
doing
this.
So
in
last
year
alone,
we
submitted
30
million
dollars
in
funding
proposals
to
higher
levels
of
government
in
order
to
be
able
to
accelerate
key
risks
that
have
been
identified.
So
this
includes,
for
example,
work
to
accelerate
the
power
back
backup
the
resiliency
at
the
wastewater
treatment
plant.
E
It
also
includes
concrete
proposals
to
protect
some
of
our
roads
that
are
subject
to
flooding,
including
the
access
point
to
the
britannia
water
treatment
plant,
as
well
as
other
erosion
protection
works
to
protect
our
parks
and
other
services.
So,
on
on
one
of
your
points,
I
think
continuing
to
look
for
and
leverage
external
funding
sources
will
be
key
and
we
will
be
continuing
to
do
that
as
we
have.
The
subsequent
funding
applications
are
called
by
by
the
government
and
working
closely
with
our
capital
plan
partners.
E
The
other
angle
I
would
say
on
that
is
working
closely
with
other
agencies
to
leverage
resources,
for
example,
with
pspc,
with
ncc
with
city
of
gatineau.
So
ncc
will
be
releasing
their
climate
vulnerability
and
risk
assessment
in
two
days
to
their
board.
City
of
gatineau
has
released
theirs
last
year,
and
so
we
continue
to
collaborate
with
those
agencies,
as
well
with
other
organizations
to
identify
where
we
can
pool
our
resources
and
work
together.
F
Thank
you
for
that.
I
really
do
appreciate
your
work
on
this.
It
helps
you
know,
provide
us
a
snapshot
going
forward,
but
I
remain
concerned
about
the
lack
of
funding
coming
in
that
can
then
leverage
more
funding
from
the
federal
government.
I
did
see
the
report
where
it
shows
that
you
leveraged
you
did
put
in
applications
for
close
to
30
million
and
that
our
climate
change
master
plan,
better
positions
us
to
apply
for
these
sorts
of
fun
so
good.
We
have
that
in
place.
F
It
is
a
very
good
plan,
but
I
remain
concerned
about
a
steady
level
of
funding,
whether
it's
from
other
departments
or
within
our
own
area
here
for
that
climate
change
team,
because
we
this
is
again,
this
should
be
the
highest
priority
in
the
city,
there's
nothing
more
important
than
this
for
our
kids
and
I'm
worried
we're
falling
behind,
especially
on
the
community
side.
I
think
the
city
side
we're
going
to
be
okay,
it's
the
community
side,
I'm
really
really
worried
about
here
in
our
city.
C
Thanks
chair
and
similar
to
previous
comments,
I
too
want
to
acknowledge
staff's
work.
We've
made
some
progress,
this
term
of
council
when
you
look
at
maybe
the
stalled
work
that
had
happened
prior
to
this
term,
we're
finally
seeing
some
some
progress
here
and,
although
not
everyone,
believes
we're
moving
fast
enough,
we're
moving
in
the
right
direction.
C
So
I'm
looking
forward
to
the
post-mortem
that
the
city
of
ottawa
is
going
to
lead
and
we
hope
that
the
emotion
that
counselor
king
and
I
have
worked
on
for
hydro
get
some
traction
as
well.
I
do
think
one
of
our
greatest
areas
that
we
need
to
improve
on
in
the
community
is
is
getting
people
prepared
both
at
home,
but
also
what
people
can
do
in
the
community
once
a
storm
hits.
How
can
people
band
together
and
safely
check
in
on
one
another?
C
We
have
resources
in
the
community
that
go
unused
and
there's
gotta
be
a
way
to
coordinate
a
community
response
when
the
city
can't
do
it,
because
they're
stretched.
So
so
thin
when
the
storm
has
such
a
large
geographic
coverage
like
what
we
just
went
through
last
month,
so
I
do
think,
there's
some
area
of
improvement
there.
C
E
I
I
think
one
of
the
things
that
is
evident
in
the
report
before
you
is
just
the
complexity
of
the
number
of
hazards,
the
number
of
sectors
that
are
affected,
the
number
of
city
services
that
are
affected
and,
in
particular,
the
number
of
the
ways,
the
different
ways
in
which
communities
will
be
affected
on
the
ground
and
in
terms
of
our
ability
to
bring
forward
a
strategy
and
an
action
plan
that
is
meaningful
and
that
actually
identifies
what
should
be
done
to
address
these
risks.
And
what
our
priorities
are.
E
The
biggest
challenge
for
us
is
priority
setting,
and
it
is
why
we
went
through
the
detailed
vulnerability
and
risk
assessment
to
be
able
to
make
sure
we
were
stepping
back
and
looking
at
all
of
the
potential
risks
and
examining
existing
adaptive
capacity
to
really
identify
where
their
gaps
are.
So
the
end
of
2023
is
our
our
estimation
of
when
we
can
bring
forward
a
strategy
and
a
plan
that
actually
has
meaningful
action
to
those
those
40
risks.
C
Okay,
I'm
always
keen
to
particularly
in
with
this
subject
matter,
see
things
progress
a
little
bit
faster
than
plan,
but
I
appreciate
having
a
better
understanding
of,
as
you
said,
the
complexities
of
of
of
what's
being
worked
on.
So
in
that
regard
that
chair,
I,
I
will
be
supporting
the
recommendation
before
us.
C
I
do
acknowledge,
there's
some
good
work
here
and
I
agree
with
councillor
menard
when
you
assess
you
know
all
the
priorities
of
a
council,
the
threats,
the
real
threats
of
the
changing
climate
are
top
of
the
list
for
me
as
well,
and
the
city
of
ottawa
absolutely
has
a
role
to
play
here
in
setting
out
that
strategy.
So
thank
you
very
much.
O
Thank
you
chair,
thank
you
to
to
staff
for
for
this
entire
assessment.
I
think
that
you
know
when
we
look
at
when
we
look
at
it
when
we
look
at
the
the
high
risks
that
are
in
front
of
us
here
today,
the
priority
risks
and
the
hazards
you
know
attached
to
them.
It's
shocking.
We
all
knew
we
were
in
trouble,
but
but
if
this
doesn't
frighten
people,
I'm
not
sure
what
will
you
know?
O
It's
almost
hard
to
pick
out
the
one
that
concerns
me,
the
most
I
think
they're
all
they're,
all
frightening
and
and
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
time
to
to
catch
up
and
get
ahead-
we're
still
playing
catch-up
as
many
cities
are
but
but
we
certainly
are
playing
catch-up
and
we
need
to
to
do
so
and
and
get
ahead,
and
I
you
know
I
look
at.
I
guess
I
guess
for
me
often
when
I
think
about
vulnerability
and
I
think
about
high-risk
groups.
You
know
it
does.
O
You
know
it's
no
secret,
that
high-risk
groups
didn't
create
the
situations
that
were
in
today,
but
they
are
the
ones
that
will
be
most
greatly
impacted,
whether
that's
internationally,
whether
that's
across
you
know
geographically
across
the
country
or
even
just
in
in
in
each
of
our
in
each
of
our
communities.
So
I
do
have
I
you
know
again.
I
I
do
have
concerns
that
we're
not
addressing
this
with
any
real,
immediate
funding.
O
So
I
have
two
questions.
My
my
first
one
is
around
emergency
services
and
the
response
to
vulnerable,
calling
them
vulnerable
groups,
but
marginalized
people
who
are
marginalized
people,
who
are
you
know,
living
in
rooming
houses,
shelters,
etc.
That
spend
an
inordinate
amount
of
time
outdoors
in
the
extreme
heat
in
the
extreme
cold
people
who
have
to
sleep
outside
and
and
people
who
don't
necessarily
have
access
to
air
conditioning
which
is
becoming
as
important
as
heating
in
in
our
climate
and
just
to
staff.
On
you
know.
O
We
see
here
that
these
are
risks
that
are
requiring
immediate
action
and
when
we
have
extreme
heat
today,
extreme
heat
days,
you
know,
there's
we
we
do
a
bit.
We
open
up.
Some
heating,
cooling,
our
cooling
stations,
but
you
know:
do
we
have
the
funding
required
to
ensure
that
people
at
the
highest
risk
of
death
by
heat
are,
are
adequately
served
and
more
important?
Do
we
do
we
track
as
a
city,
people
who
die
from
heat,
related
illnesses.
B
Thank
you,
chair
and
and
counselor
I'll,
be
happy
to
pass
over
if
ottawa
public
health
is
on
the
line.
With
regards
to
tracking
of
people
who
die
from
heat
illnesses,
I
can
assure
you
that
every
one
of
these
disaster
type
situations
quickly
escalates
us
to
call
in
our
people
task
force
experts
to
come
in
and
assist,
and
you
know
it
is
definitely
one
of
the
first
things
that
we
think
about
now.
B
When
we
are
faced
with
these
emergencies
is
how
do
we
help
our
more
vulnerable
and
and
those
who
need
help
so
from
that
perspective?
Yes,
it
is
top
of
mind
with
regards
to
funding.
You
know.
Obviously
we
can
we
can.
We
need
to
look
at
more
as
part
of
this
strategy
and
as
part
of
what
the
city
can
do
in
the
future.
We
need
to
continue
to
reconsider
that
from
every
aspect
of
things.
So
a
great
question
I'll
pass
it
over
to
dr
has.
B
N
Yes,
I
agree
that
concern
is
warranted.
I
don't
think
that
especially
lower
income
populations
without
access
to
cooling
do
have
enough
protection
through
what
we
see
is
ahead.
So
currently,
what
we
we
know
we
do
for
data
is,
as
we
are
warning
and
letting
people
know
there
is
heat.
You
know
harmful
risks
to
health
from
heat
coming.
N
We
also
use
a
monitoring
at
that
time,
so
we
look
at
emergency
room
visits.
We
look
at
you
know
with
paramedics,
we
have
qualitative
information
about
what's
happening.
What
are
they
seen,
but
we
quantitatively
look
at
emerge.
We
haven't
in
past
events,
seen
really
significant
rises
in
emergency
room
visits
to
heat,
but
we
can
detect
some
rides,
and
so
that's
something
we
watch
for
the
deaths.
It
takes
a
little
bit
longer
to
get
information
about
cause
of
death,
but
this
is
something
we
look
at.
N
We
can
look
at
year
over
year
to
see
patterns
and
trends,
not
just
in
the
moment
for
for
information
in
the
moment
about
death,
the
coroners
really
have
the
latest
as
they
investigate
and
they
see
what's
happening
on
the
ground,
so
we're
also
in
touch
with
them
all.
To
say
death
is,
is
a
is
the
worst
outcome
and,
of
course,
you
know
we
want
to
prevent
people
getting
to
that
point.
N
So
our
our
plans
right
now
are
including
working
with
a
whole
network
of
providers
that
can
connect
with
populations
at
greater
risk,
so
on
the
ground
through
multiple
agencies,
we
let
people
know
when
we're
concerned
about
health
impacts
from
heat
and
people
are
able
to
do
more
outreach.
I
think
we
we
know
that
this
is
something
that
really
in.
In
the
end,
we
really
need
to
build
the
capacity
of
all
community
members
to
look
after
each
other
too
and
understand
what
the
signs
are
of
danger
for
for
heat
related
illness.
N
We
are
promoting.
We
have
these
campaigns,
you
know
every
year,
we'll
continue
to
promote
the
beat
the
heat
tips
about
how
to
stay
cool,
even
if
you
don't
have
air
conditioning.
So
this
beat
the
heat
messaging,
you
know
will
continue
to
amplify
and
that's
what
can
actually
concretely
also
help.
You
know
if
people
don't
have
fans
getting
people
fans
helping
them
understand
how
to
shower
or
cool
or
use
mist
to
cool
down.
N
So
we
we
have
a
plan,
that's
related
to
heat
and
cold
and
smog
that
does
focus
on
the
populations
at
greatest
risk.
Absolutely
we've
been
mapping
where
people
are
likely
to
be
at
greatest
risk.
So
these
these
are,
you
know
the
foundational
activities
I
think
where
we
need
to
go
further
is
is
recognizing.
The
risk
is
only
growing,
and
so
the
monitoring
in
in
time
and
over
time
will
be
one
of
the
roles
that
public
health
plays
and
continues
to
play.
Yeah.
O
Thank
you
thank
you
for
that.
I
I
think
that
and-
and
I
appreciate
everything
that
public
health
does
emergency
services
and
in
terms
of
addressing
it
and
and
tracking,
where
the
you
know
where
the
the
highest
risks
are,
but
I
I
really
would
at
some
point
like
to
see
you
know
us
reporting
out
on
deaths
from
heat
related
illness.
I
think
that
you
know
it's
it's
easy
to
forget
how
what
how
how
just
how
high
risk
some
populations
are.
O
Some
people
are
not
populations
like
people,
you
know
and
they're,
not
even
vulnerable
they're
very
resilient
people
living
in
rooming
houses
and
shelters
actually
are
I'm
probably
more
vulnerable
than
they
are.
If
we're
all
left
to
our
own
devices,
they're
they're
marginalized,
but
you
know
they
are,
they
are
resilient.
I
don't
know
how
how
people
do
it,
but
but
they
do,
but
I
I
I
do-
and
I
think
you
know
even
simple
things
like
you
know:
I've
spoken
to
emergency
response
about
as
our
emergency
preparedness.
O
You
know
just
simple
things
like
misting
stations
from
our
fire
hydrants.
You
know
around
the
downtown
or
areas
where
you
have
higher
populations
of
people
living.
You
know,
without
air
and
and
and
at
higher
risk,
just
set
up
a
little
misting
station
coming
out
of
a
fire
hydrant,
it's
fun.
First
off
people
like
it,
I've
been
in
cities
where
they
have
them.
It's
good.
O
For
you
know,
people
visiting
it's
good
for
people
shopping
et
cetera
people
just
like
it,
but
it
also
gives
gives
somebody
who
may
not
otherwise
have
a
place
to
cool
off
a
place
to
cool
off
and
just
one
more
question
to
to
staff.
I
had
brought
a
motion
I
think
was
seconded
by
chair
moffett
back
through
our
budget
process.
It
was
deferred
to
the
long-range
financial
plan
around
transit
when
we
to
pull
11
million
out
of
our
gas
tax.
O
The
additional
gas
tax
that
that
we
got
for
2021
and
I
just
to
ask
staff
on
the
11
million.
Have
you
been
working
like
has
have
those
the
staff
and
treasury
in
the
treasurer's
office.
Have
they
reached
out
to
you
to
understand
how
that
11
million
dollars
might
be
used
to
address
some
of
these
priority
risks
that
you
know
we're
looking
at
one
to
three
years,
so
perhaps
we
need
more
than
the
11
million,
but
certainly
that
is
that
would
be
a
start.
B
O
M
Thanks,
I
I
don't
usually
go
on
twice,
but
but
a
number
of
themes
popped
up
during
the
questions
just
want
to
try
to
pull
them
together,
a
little
bit
next
term
of
counsel
you're
coming
back
with
a
costing
of
of
the
plan,
and
I'm
just
wondering
if
you
could
share
a
bit
more
information
about
how
that
costing's
going
to
be
handled.
And
what
I
mean
by
that
is
you
set
out
a
number
of
priorities,
as
you
start
to
do
the
costing?
M
Do
you
anticipate
that
you
will
be
going
in
and
moving
some
of
those
priorities
around
or
and
and
sort
of
working
towards
a
fixed
target
of
dollars
or
is?
Is
the
purpose
of
your
costing
to
cost
everything
just
bring
the
whole
enchilada
to
council
and
have
council
figure
out
what
how
much
money
they
they
can
find
at
the
time
and
what
they
believe
of
those
projects
should
get
the
funding?
E
Thank
you
I'll
start
off
and
if
others
on
the
call
would
like
to
jump
in,
please
feel
free
to
do
so.
I
think
the
specifics
on
the
costing
we're
still
working
that
out
the
level
of
detail,
the
best
approach
to
do
it.
I
think
in
we
need
all
of
it.
We
need
to
understand
what
specific
the
costs
are
for
very
specific
projects
and
clearly
those
will
be
related
to
the
priority
risks
that
have
been
identified.
E
So
I
think
the
in
the
next
year
and
a
half
we
need
to
be
focusing
on
what
makes
most
sense
from
a
cost-benefit
analysis
and
from
a
costing
of
specific
initiatives,
and
we
will
bring
forward
the
that
analysis
when
we
come
forward
at
the
end
of
next
year.
But
I
would
anticipate
that
full
costings
are
going
to
get
reflected
in
many
other
parts
of
departmental
work
plans
and
in
the
long
range
plans.
B
J
A
A
F
B
B
A
Okay.
So,
on
the
back
to
my
agenda
on
the
report
from
us
that
the
standard
community
environment,
correction,
water
and
waste
management
recommend
that
council
one
receive
the
climate
vulnerability
and
risk
assessment
attached
as
documents,
one
and
two
and
summarize
this
report,
two
direct
staff
to
bring
forward
the
climate
resiliency
strategy
by
q4
2023.
A
Three
direct
staff
to
consider
resourcing
needs
to
develop
the
climate
strategy
as
part
of
the
2023
budget
process,
including
resources
to
support
public
and
stakeholder
engagement
for
direct
staff,
leading
new
or
updates
to
city
plan
strategies,
policies
and
programs
to
take
cvra
findings
into
consideration.
Five
direct
staff
to
consider
resourcing
needs
to
further
assess
or
mitigate
known
climate
risks
as
part
of
the
2023
budget
process
to
accelerate
early
action.
A
You
so
we
move
on
to
item
two
which
is
about
accelerating
early
action,
while
the
climate
resiliency
strategy
is
being
developed,
the
2021
hydro
ottawa
dividend
surplus
spending
plan,
so
the
update
on
hydro
ottawa,
their
agm,
is
tomorrow
so
they'll
be
reporting
on
this
to
a
council.
We
know
now
from
their
report
that
the
dividend
is
23.7
million
dollars,
which
means
that
the
dividend
surplus
is
3.7
million
dollars
and
we
have
a
report
in
front
of
us
and
a
presentation
from
staff
on
the
dividend.
Surplus
spending
plan.
F
F
Okay,
now
I
guess
I
should
read
the
warehouses,
we're
on
page
four
of
the
report:
hydro
ottawa
dividend,
surplus
spending
plan,
the
bullet
point,
references,
energy
management
at
the
drinking
water
purification
plants
and
whereas
the
original
text,
as
noted,
is
specific
to
drinking
water
plants,
britannia
and
lemieux,
and
whereas
alternative
warding
allows
for
the
inclusion
of
all
drinking
water
and
wastewater
facilities
across
the
city
of
ottawa,
as
intended
by
the
report,
therefore
be
resolved
at
risk.
With
respect
to
the
bullet
point.
A
A
A
K
In
march,
2019
council
directed
that
any
surplus
in
the
hydro
ottawa
dividend
received
in
this
term
of
council
be
directed
towards
energy
efficiency,
conservation
or
renewable
energy
programs
with
ottawa
and
as
part
of
that
direction,
specific
projects
were
to
be
recommended
by
staffed
and
approved
by
this
community
once
the
specific
dollar
amount.
If
any
was
known,
the
report
that
you
received
today
was
written
before
the
amount
of
the
hydro
ottawa
dividend
was
known
and
so
in
its
entirety.
A
A
Q
Q
You
must
be
thinking
where
in
the
world
is
angela
keller
herzog,
as
she
is
truly
the
central
piece
to
cafes
its
advocacy
so
much
of
its
effort
and
probably
its

slide.
Chris
well,
as
you've
heard
earlier,
angela
is
enjoying
her
role
as
a
mother
today
and
is
celebrating
her
son
as
he
graduates
at
queen's
and
moves
on
to
a
master's
in
engineering.
Q
Q
This
slide
overviews
the
status
quo
on
how
we
fund
climate
management
in
ottawa.
Today,
your
council
had
the
community
to
make
climate
a
priority
and
called
a
climate
emergency
early
in
your
term.
Three
years
later,
the
city
has
no
long-range
financial
plan
to
address
mitigation
and
adaptation
to
deal
with
the
emergency.
Q
This
is
an
opportunity,
as
the
chair
alluded
to
earlier
this
morning.
The
city's
operating
budget
does
not
address
the
climate
issue
head
on.
Despite
declaring
the
crisis,
there
is
no
line
item
to
address
energy
evolution,
the
city's
energy
transition
strategy,
and
so
it
leaves
your
staff
and
the
full
council
where
you
are
today
planning
to
divvy
up
a
hydro
dividend,
because
a
significant
plan
to
justify
more
has
never
been
funded.
In
effect,
it
leaves
you
choosing
from
a
laundry
list
of
items
to
cobble
together
rather
than
delivering
a
cohesive
response
to
achieve
climate
resiliency.
Q
Next
slide,
please
christopher
cafes
would
like
to
suggest.
The
answer
is
to
be
is
to
build
up
and
out
capacity
at
city
hall.
The
climate
unit
is
currently
buried
within
a
very
busy
planning
department
to
deliver
and
enhance
a
municipal
energy
transition
strategy.
It
needs
a
dedicated
senior
manager,
lead
to
provide
issue,
promotion
to
guide
the
business
of
strategic
planning
and
dedicated
professional
financial
staff.
Q
F
Q
We
think
specifically
on
the
mitigation
side
and
trees
and
green
nature
and
urgent
action
areas
such
as
organics
out
of
landfill
and
to
our
point
above
where
the
fte
is
to
look
more
comprehensively
and
strategically
at
the
financial
plan
necessary
to
address
the
emergency
and
in
slide
eight.
Our
next
slide
christopher.
Q
Q
A
Q
F
I
I
I
do
wonder
about
when
we
compare
to
other
cities-
and
I
don't
know
if
you've
done
any
of
that
work
in
terms
of
our
climate
stuff,
because
a
lot
of
our
staff
are
temporary
and
they're,
not
they're,
not
ftes,
that
are
permanent.
As
you
said
in
your
presentation,
and
that's
really
one
of
the
ways
cities
work
towards
mitigating
climate
is
having
the
you
know,
the
the
resources,
the
people
to
be
able
to
work
on
the
issue.
Q
F
Q
Well,
that
doesn't
surprise
me,
but
but
what
we
would
like
to
hear
is
that
lengthened
window
and
that
commitment
and
I
think,
where
it's
hard
to
commit
that
investment
at
an
organizational
level.
My
background
is
business
management,
not
government
management,
but
nonetheless,
it's
very
hard
to
commit
that
degree
of
investment.
If
you
don't
have
a
plan
and
if
you
don't
have
a
methodology
to
drive
the
investment-
and
I
don't
mean
that
in
a
negative
way
when
it
goes
to
to
staff,
you've
got
a
complement
of
staff
here.
Q
Clearly
that
are
grappling
with
the
issues
from
the
outside.
It
looks
like
they're
grappling
with
a
lack
of
resources
and
when
it
comes
to
climate
change,
one
of
the
more
complex
aspects
of
it
I
understand
is
in
fact
the
management
of
the
financial
complexities,
the
leveraging
the
payoffs,
the
paybacks
and
and
including
that
in
a
complete
financial
picture
that
helps
those
who
are
trying
to
justify
the
kind
of
investment
that
folks,
like
you
want
to
make.
Are
we
really
getting
payback?
Q
If
you
don't
have
the
minds
analyzing,
that
councillor
menard,
you
don't
win
the
advocacy
component
so
yeah
I
hear
you.
I
get
why
even
a
smaller
city
like
gatineau,
wants
to
invest
like
that.
I
don't
think
ottawa
is
without
a
want.
I
just
think
the
linchpin
at
the
core
of
it
has
to
be
identified
and
from
our
perspective
and
this
organizational
manager's
perspective,
you
need
a
linchpin
at
the
top
in
your
very
strong
senior
leadership
team
to
drive
this
issue.
Q
I
heard
stove,
you
talked
quickly
about
stove
piping
earlier
this
morning
and
that's
part
of
the
problem
that
they
know
they've
got
to
pull
these
investments.
Pardon
the
background,
pull
the
investments
out
of
these
various
silos
and
concentrate
them,
reconfigure
them
and
then
leverage
them,
but
that's
not
new.
I
know
you've
heard
that
talk
before.
F
Certainly
yep.
No
thank
you.
That's
why?
One
of
the
reasons
council
mckinney's
motion
was
so
important
about
that
that
climate
funding,
because
it
was
federal
gas
tax
funds,
wasn't
a
new
tax
increase.
It
was
federal
gas
tax
funds
that
could
be
used,
then,
as
a
revolving
fund
to
leverage
more
savings
which
city
staff
have
done.
F
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
At
the
same
time,
there
was
a
surplus
from
the
year
before
50
million
dollars,
and
how
does
that
play
in
to
so
that
is,
is
the
only
funding
source,
the
hydro,
auto
hydro
ottawa
dividend,
I
think
not
in
future
with
a
new
council.
We
sincerely
hope
that
more
transparent
and
timely
funding
will
be
available
and
on
a
multi-year
basis.
M
A
M
Yes,
you
do
need
somebody
who's
in
charge,
but
the
the
work
needs
to
be
integrated
into
every
lead
department,
and
you
should
have
written
performance
agreements
for
all
senior
managers
to
ensure
that
you're
driving
the
change
across
all
parts
of
the
government
of
your
of
the
city
government.
You
can't
do
it
any
other
way.
Otherwise,
it's
it's.
It's
and
nothing
can
be
sacrosanct.
M
A
A
F
Thank
you
very
much
chair
and
yeah.
It's
nice
to
see
it
to
be
that
level.
Obviously
we're
hoping
for
some
funds
from
the
federal
government
to
cover
our
federal
province.
I
think
to
cover
off
the
storm
costs
that
occurred,
and
this
is
of
course,
last
year's
where
the
storm
and
what
future
capital
expenses
may
have
for
hydro
ottawa,
I
think,
is
yet
to
be
seen.
So
that's
going
to
be
a
big
major
piece-
and
I
think,
goes
to
the
point
of
this.
F
K
F
Okay,
okay,
thank
you.
I
had
asked
the
question
previously
about
leveraging
other
funding
from
the
province
and
the
federal
government.
I
know
we've
applied
for
programs.
Can
you
just
say
more
about
that
in
terms
of
financing?
Do
we
often
have
to
put
in
a
third
when
we're
applying
for
for
these
programs?
Are
they
more
loan
based
applications?
F
K
K
Many
of
them
are
50
50.,
so
we
put
in
50
of
the
cost
someone
else
puts
in
another
50..
Some
are
are
less
than
that.
We're
currently
pursuing
funding
related
to
easy
charging
infrastructure,
which
is
certainly
less
than
that
we
are
perceiving.
We
have
pursued
funding
related
to
grants
and
studies
and
the
model
changes
for
that
as
well.
So
it's
really
all
over
the
board.
K
Most
of
our
of
our
funding
applications
are
directed
to
the
federal
government
and
we
know
that
they
have
both
had
challenges
in
getting
funding
out
the
door
and
in
many
cases,
they've
been
over
subscribed.
So
there's
challenges
associated
with
the
funding
that
flows
from
those
senior
levels
of
government
as
well.
K
We
have
secured
large
the
largest
single
funding.
Application
was,
of
course,
for
the
better
homes
loan
program,
and
that
was
a
four
million
dollar
grant
and
an
eight
million
dollar
loan.
So
it's
one
where
there's
a
lot
more
of
a
loan
capacity
within
that
and,
of
course,
we're
pursuing
funding
through
the
canada
infrastructure
bank
to
support
some
of
the
work
on
the
e-buses
so
very
wide
range,
both
in
terms
of
the
funding
amounts.
We're
seeking
on
the
mitigation
side
and
on
the
funding
types
available
or
the
streams
that
the
federal
government
in
particular
has
identified.
F
Okay,
thank
you
for
that.
I
do.
I
want
to
pick
up
on
one
of
the
what
the
delegations
had
mentioned
and
it
was
around.
You
know
really
driving
sort
of
the
plan
for
where
investments
could
go.
How
you
see
a
payback
on
that
and,
of
course,
meeting
our
objectives
in
the
climate
change
master
plan.
The
biggest
concern
for
me
is
on
the
community
side.
I
think
95
of
our
emissions
are
on
the
community
side,
whereas
five
percent
are
on
the
city
side.
F
So
if
there
was
more
available
resources,
what
would
it
be
used
for
in
your
recommendation
on
the
community
side
where
most
of
our
emissions
are
coming
from,
where
most
of
our
plan
needs
to
needs
to
evolve
and
granted?
I
understand
the
climate
change
team
hasn't
been
in
a
in
a
position
to
say:
well,
we've
got
you
know.
K
It
is
a
challenging
question
to
answer,
of
course,
that
you
can
see
in
the
hydroauto
dividend
surplus
that
we've
tried
to
target
areas
that
have
significant
ghg
reductions
associated,
as
you
know,
as
modeled
energy
evolution
and,
of
course
many
of
those
projects
are
scalable.
So
even
where
we've
identified
a
number
it's
to
continue
advancing
the
work,
it's
to
continue
learning
lessons
so
that
we
can
continue
to
do
better
and
much
of
that
is
scalable.
K
Most
of
these
things
are
scalable
as
we
work
through
this.
We
know
that
we're
going
to
hit
more
substantial
barriers,
particularly
for
populations
that
don't
have
easy
access
to
this,
and
we
have
not
done
sufficient
work
in
my
opinion,
yet
to
know
where
the
extent
of
those
barriers
are,
and
so
some
of
the
funds
that
we've
identified
in
our
hydro
ottawa
dividend
spending
plan
starts
to
look
at
some
of
those
more
vulnerable
populations
and
how
we
can
start
to
work
more
directly
with
with
those
groups.
As
one
example.
M
K
It's
an
excellent
point
councillor.
Thank
you
for
raising
it.
Of
course,
we
we
work
with
our
colleagues
across
all
departments
to
advance
this
work
and
beyond
the
work
that
we
are
leading
in
the
climate
resiliency
team.
There
are
key
projects
which
are
being
advanced,
such
as
the
master
plans,
infrastructure,
green
space,
solid
waste
transportation,
master
plans
and
others
which
are
all
moving
forward.
K
In
addition
to
the
asset
management
plans
and
many
other
pieces,
we're
fortunate
to
work
with
many
of
those
teams
as
contributors
to
the
plans
as
they're
being
developed,
they
come
back
to
us
to
understand
what
some
of
the
climate
projections
require.
For
instance,
in
the
infrastructure
master
plan,
they
come
back
to
us
to
make
sure
that
the
scenarios
that
they're
looking
at
at
the
transportation
master
plan
are
being
compared
to
what
the
energy
evolution
model
calls
for.
K
I
think
the
key
difference
is
that
they're
they're
responsible
for
these
files
in
their
entirety
and
they're,
bringing
the
climate
piece
in
they're
not
always
directly
accountable
for
the
climate
change
aspects.
And
so,
while
we
work
with,
I
think,
it's
fair
to
say
well
more
than
100
staff
across
the
corporation
on
a
variety
of
aspects
for
these
projects.
K
We've
heard
from
other
teams
and
other
managers
that
they're
doing
it
from
the
sides
of
their
desks
as
well
that
the
climate
change
is
something
which
is
being
addressed
in
addition
to
all
of
the
other
technical
operational
strategic
requirements
that
they
have
as
they
move.
These
other
plans
forward
so
fair,
very
fair
point
and
certainly
a
significant
amount
of
credit
and
acknowledgement
to
our
colleagues
across
the
corporation
who
are
trying
to
move
their
files
forward
with
these
climate
considerations
as
part
of
it.
M
One
of
the
other
terms
we've
heard
a
number
of
times
this
morning
is
how
how
things
are
siloed
at
the
city
and
you've
just
shared
that
you
your
work,
your
team's
working
with
at
least
a
hundred
different
employees
in
different
departments.
So
can
you
can
you
comment
on
how
serious
you
think
the
silo
issue
is
and
and
what
suggestions
you
might
have
that
we
could
help
you
with
in
in
order
to
to
break
down
those
silos.
K
But
it's
a
very
interesting
question:
counselor.
Thank
you
in
terms
of
silos.
It's
always
a
reality
in
a
large
organization
and
the
larger
that
we,
the
larger
the
organization,
becomes
the
more
complex
and
the
more
wide-ranging.
The
issues
are
the
bigger
the
tendency
to
go
down
deep
into
these
details.
M
A
Seeing
none
the
report
in
front
of
us
is
that
the
state
committee
on
viral
protection,
water
and
waste
management
recommend
council
approve
the
prioritized
spending
plan,
as
shown
in
document
one
with
funding
for
implementation
to
be
aligned
with
hydro
ottawa's
dividend
surplus
once
the
dollar
amount.
If
any
is
known
on
the
item.
A
O
O
O
We
could
certainly
argue
that
it's
symbolic,
but
there
are
times
when
symbolism,
especially
when
it's
international,
when
we
make
these
commitments
to
to
our
plans
to
address
climate
action
climate,
our
climate
crises,
especially
for
calling
for
a
non-proliferation
treaty
on
fossil
fuels,
because
we
know
that
you
know
that
fossil
fuel
exploration,
expansion
just
really
means
that
we
will
not.
You
know
if
we
don't
do
something
immediate.
O
O
K
A
All
right
and
I've
heard
some
concern
that
that's
that
you
know
we
could
not
issue
a
building
permit
for
a
house.
That's
on
that's
on
natural
gas
or
something
like
that,
and
my
understanding
is
that
we
actually
don't
have
the
authority
to
dictate
what
type
of
fuel
source
someone
actually
uses
at.
This
point
is
that
accurate.
A
R
Hi
everyone,
thank
you
so
much
for
the
invitation.
I'm
really
happy
to
be
connecting
with
you
all,
and
especially
on
indigenous
people's
day,
the
national
day
of
indigenous
peoples,
who
are
the
original
custodians
of
this
land
and
have
been
fighting
and
resisting
for
generations
for
the
rights
of
their
peoples
to
sovereignty
and
self-determination
into
those
same
rights
for
the
earth.
R
So
it's
really
an
honor
to
speak
with
you
today
on
the
importance
of
urgently
leaving
behind
the
destructive
fossil
fuel
era
and
shifting
our
energy
systems
to
renewable
ones
that
allow
our
earth
to
flourish
instead
of
perish.
My
name
is
sabla
samuel.
I'm
the
global
cities
campaign
lead
for
the
fossil
fuel
non-proliferation
treaty,
where
I
campaign
and
support
a
growing
global
coalition
of
now
more
than
50
cities
around
the
world
that
are
calling
for
an
end
to
fossil
fuel
expansion.
R
Oh
actually,
I
should
have
slides
for
this
sorry,
chris.
Can
you
please
put
these
up
if
you're
there?
Thank
you
so
yeah,
now
more
than
50
cities
around
the
world
who
are
calling
for
an
end
to
a
fossil
fuel
expansion,
a
fair
phase
out
of
oil,
gas
and
coal
and
adjust
energy
transition
for
all.
I'm
ethiopian,
canadian
and
I
was
born
in
montreal
and
as
a
little
kid
I
moved
to
ottawa,
where
I
attended
devonshire
public
school
fisher
park
and
glebe
high
school.
R
Since
the
industrial
revolution-
and
this
trend
is
not
relenting,
the
world
is
currently
on
track
to
produce
110
more
fossil
fuels
by
the
end
of
this
decade
than
what
is
compatible
with
limiting
warming
to
1.5
degrees
celsius
and
the
majority
of
this
expansion.
85
percent
is
planned
in
two
countries,
canada
and
the
us
next
slide.
Please
it's
not
enough
to
only
stop
the
expansion
that
hurdles
our
planet
towards
climate
collapse.
We
must
begin
phasing
out
oil,
gas
and
coal,
as
existing
projects
alone,
make
the
1.5
degree
target
impossible
to
reach
next
slide.
R
Please,
the
fossil
fuel
non-proliferation
treaty
calls
for
three
things.
The
first
is
non-proliferation,
so
to
keep
fossil
fuels
in
the
ground,
then
a
fair
phase
out
of
existing
fossil
fuel
reserves
of
coal,
oil
and
gas,
and
adjust
energy
transition
to
ensure
renewable
energy
access
for
all
next
slide,
please.
R
This
is
needed
to
complement
the
paris
agreement
which
focuses
on
tackling
greenhouse
gas
emissions
and
demand,
but
remains
silent
on
fossil
fuels
and
currently
leads
us
to
a
massive
overshoot
of
our
climate
targets,
and
so
we
see
the
fossil
fuel
treaty
as
a
complementary
mechanism
to
ensure
international
cooperation
for
an
equitable
transition
off
fossil
fuels.
That
has
been
supported
by
101
nobel
laureates,
thousands
of
academics
and
scientists,
youth
activists
and
civil
society
organizations,
hundreds
of
parliamentarians
and
faith
leaders
and
as
you've
heard
at
more
than
50
cities
around
the
world.
R
So
in
canada,
emissions
from
oil
and
gas
production
are
the
largest
and
fastest
growing
source
of
emissions
and
the
primary
reason
that
it
can't
meet
its
paris
commitments
and,
in
the
international
energy
agency's
latest
policy
review
of
canada's
energy
system
released
in
january.
The
iea
correctly
identifies
fossil
fuel
production
as
a
barrier
to
achieving
the
country's
climate
targets,
and
while
research
shows
that
globally,
every
dollar
of
renewable
energy
investment
generates
two
to
five
times
more
jobs
than
the
equivalent
investment
in
fossil
fuels.
R
Canada,
the
u.s
and
australia,
give
some
of
the
largest
subsidies
for
fossil
fuels
per
capita.
Next
slide,
please,
with
these
dangerous
trends
from
national
governments
around
the
world,
the
role
of
cities
is
vital
in
building
pressure
from
below
to
create
systemic
change
and
we've
seen
this
with
historic
precedent.
Just
as
nuclear
free
cities
played
a
critical
role
in
calling
for
the
treaty
on
the
prohibition
of
nuclear
weapons
city
councils
around
the
world
can
help
build
momentum
towards
a
fossil
fuel.
Non-Proliferation
treaty.
R
Cities
are
on
the
front
line
of
the
climate
crisis,
they're
facing
wildfires
flooding,
storms,
heat
waves,
we've
seen
freak
weather
events
in
ottawa
alone.
In
the
past
weeks
that
have
stolen
lives
and
put
out
the
lights
and
thousands
of
homes
and
wildfires
across
british
columbia
that
have
erased
entire
towns.
So
to
stop
this
devastation,
we
need
to
stop
the
source,
which
is
oil,
gas
and
coal
next
slide.
R
Please
vancouver
became
the
first
city
in
the
world
to
endorse
the
fossil
fuel
treaty
and
many
other
canadian
cities
have
followed
suit,
such
as
toronto,
montreal
and
victoria,
and
these
are
joined
by
global
cities
across
the
world.
Next
slide,
please,
including
paris,
sydney
la
barcelona,
amsterdam,
canberra
and
geneva,
among
countless
others.
R
Next
slide,
please
all
recognizing
the
importance
of
making
the
fossil
fuel
era,
history
and
shifting
to
renewable
energy
systems
for
all
and
last
slide
and
ottawa
plays
a
significant
role
as
the
nation's
capital
and
has
already
indicated
the
need
to
phase
out
fossil
fuels
and
increase
the
use
of
renewable
energy
as
part
of
the
city's
community
energy
transition
strategy,
and
so
I
invite
you
to
support
ottawa
to
rise
as
a
climate
leader
and
join
their
fellow
canadian
and
global
cities
in
endorsing
the
call
for
a
fossil
fuel
non-proliferation
treaty.
Thank
you.
O
Yes,
thank
you
chair
thanks
several
for
coming
out.
That
was,
that
was
a
great
presentation.
I
just
wanna.
I
just
wanna
pick
up
on
a
good
point
that
that
the
chair
made
with
staff
a
lot
of
what
we
are
a
lot
of
what
is
in
the
the
treaty,
doesn't
pertain
necessarily
to
the
municipal
realm
is
it's
it's
you
know
part
of
the
municipal
act,
so
it
can
be
provincial.
It
can
be
federal
responsibility,
but
it
it.
O
R
O
Sorry,
no,
I
wasn't
really
clear
just
just
that.
It's
recognized
that
different
levels
of
government-
you
know
whether
it's
here
in
canada
or
you
know
elsewhere
in
the
world.
Different
levels
of
government
will
have
different
different
places
where
they're
responsible
for
meeting
some
of
the
goals
and
initiatives
of
the
treaty.
R
So
obviously
we
have
a
whole
range
of
kind
of
tool:
kit
actions
for
a
fossil
free
city
that
cities
can
decide
to
take
once
they've
endorsed
the
treaty,
but
it
really
depends
on
the
local
context.
First,
what
cities
that
endorse
treaty
are
committing
to
is
those
three
pillars
of
stopping
expansion
of
fossil
fuels,
a
fair
phase
out
and
a
just
energy
transition,
and
then
what
they
do
beyond
that
kind
of
depends
on.
R
You
know
the
authority
that
they
have
in
their
context,
but
the
idea
I
know
that
toronto
and
vancouver
and
montreal
have
all
done
so-
is
writing
up
to
the
national
government,
because,
ultimately,
it's
going
to
be
countries
that
negotiate
a
treaty.
But
we
do
want
to
build
this
collective
pressure
from
below
that
cities
can
really
generate.
O
N
Hi
good
afternoon
again,
my
name
is
sarah
washburn,
I'm
in
the
ward
of
orleans-
and
I'm
also
here
to
speak
on
behalf
of
for
our
kids
ottawa,
which
is
a
group
of
over
600
parents
in
the
in
the
community,
I'm
very
new
to
any
kind
of
activism
or
I've
never
attended
a
city
meeting
before
so.
Bear
with
me.
N
So
I'm
a
I'm
a
mother
and
that's
what
really
motivates
me
to
be
here
today
and
the
city
of
ottawa
declared
a
climate
emergency
over
three
years
ago
and
just
quoting
a
document
here
says
with
the
intent
of
deepening
its
commitment
to
protecting
our
community
from
climate
change.
So
I
would
say
it's
wonderful
and
very
hopeful
to
see
this
treaty
being
tabled
today
here
in
ottawa,
and
I
I
would
hope
it
would
be
a
little
bit
of
a
no-brainer
that
this
should
be
endorsed.
N
N
I
mean,
when
was
the
last
time
anyone
here
heard
of
two
tornado
watches
in
auto
on
the
span
of
just
a
few
weeks
I
mean
things
are
getting
worse.
Many
of
our
kids
are
just
too
young
to
fully
understand
the
risks
we
face
in
this
climate
emergency,
so
as
their
parents
and
caregivers
and
as
their
municipal
government.
We
all
need
to
advocate
and
act
on
their
behalf
now
to
ensure
they
have
a
livable
and
safe
future.
We
have
to
reduce
even
further
harm
caused
by
fossil
fuels
for
our
kids.
N
The
climate
emergency
presents
severe
health
and
safety
hazards.
Our
children
deserve
better.
The
challenges
are
as
significant
as
they
are
worthwhile.
By
endorsing
the
fossil
fuel
non-proliferation
treaty,
ottawa
will
send
a
clear
message
that
it
intends
to
take
real
climate
action
and
that
addressing
the
climate
emergency
is
a
priority.
B
I
I
We
are
asking
the
council
to
support
this
motion,
because
ottawa
and
canada
need
a
plan
on
how
we
will
move
forward
towards
renewable
energy.
The
transition
is
not
something
that
can
happen
overnight,
so
a
clear
direction
is
important
and
those
plans
need
to
start
now,
while
some
may
state
that
this
motion
is
words
and
just
words,
words
matter
words
direct
action,
and
we
can
use
this
endorsement
to
help
view.
Future
decisions
by
the
council
will
emotion,
bring
us
closer
to
decreasing
our
dependence
on
fossil
fuels,
or
will
it
bring
us
backwards?
I
Words
also
matter,
as
they
provide
a
signal
of
hope.
Our
children
need
this
hope
and
their
parents
do
too.
Of
course,
this
cannot
be
the
only
path
forward.
Climate
change
has
many
solutions
that
need
to
be
addressed,
and
the
environment
and
environment
committee
agenda
today
shows
exactly
that,
but
by
saying
yes
to
this
path,
we
are
saying
yes
to
a
future
that
is
greener
and
more
hopeful,
one
with
less
air
pollution
and
less
water
pollution,
less
asthma
and
fewer
negative
health
impacts.
I
A
lot
of
these
have
been
already
talked
about
today,
but
I
would
like
to
highlight
some
of
the
huge
health
hazards
of
fossil
fuel
use.
These
are
only
some
of
them,
but
fossil
fuel
air
pollution
is
responsible
for
8.7
million
deaths
per
year
worldwide.
That's
one
in
five
deaths
globally
and
one
in
seven
premature
deaths
here
in
canada.
I
Eighty-Six
percent
of
canadians
live
in
areas
where
air
pollution
exceeds
the
guidelines
issued
by
the
world
health
organization,
transportation
related
air
pollution
increases
the
risk
of
covenanting
related
illness
and
death.
Gas
appliances
are
the
main
source
of
nitrogen
dioxide,
a
highly
reactive
gas
that
causes
respiratory
tract
damage
and
chronic
lung
disease.
Health
canada
has
found
that
most
canadian
gas
still
exceed
their
long-term
indoor
guidelines
for
nitrogen
dioxide
exposure.
I
Last
year,
the
2021
heat
dome
caused
569
heat-related
deaths
in
british
columbia
in
a
single
week,
and
sadly,
ottawa
has
seen
more
frequent
and
severe
storms
as
a
result
of
climate
change.
The
big
storm
that
ripped
through
ontario
and
quebec
recently
claimed
the
lives
of
more
than
10
people
several
from
the
ottawa
area.
I
A
L
Hi,
thank
you,
chair
and
good
afternoon
this
time
and
thanks
once
again
for
allowing
me
to
speak
before
you
before
I
begin,
I
would
just
like
to
note
that
cafes
has
officially
endorsed
the
fossil
fuel
nonproliferation
treaty.
However,
today,
I'm
speaking
as
a
private
individual
one
of
the
earlier
items
in
this
meeting
concerned
the
recently
released
climate
change,
vulnerability
and
risk
assessment
report.
This
report
rightly
addresses
the
threats
to
lives
and
livelihoods
that
ottawa
faces
from
the
increased
likelihood
of
extreme
weather
events.
L
The
actions
of
the
federal
and
provincial
governments
to
subsidize
the
fossil
fuel
industry
are
causing
economic
and
social
harm
to
the
people
of
ottawa.
Subsidies
to
the
fossil
fuel
industry
support
the
production
of
products
that
are
increasing
the
global
average
temperature
and
further
destabilizing
the
climate.
The
result
is
that
extreme
weather
events
are
becoming
more
frequent
and
more
intense,
as
we
experienced
last
month
in
ottawa,
intense
weather
events
like
the
may
direct
show
can
have
repercussions
that
are
expensive
in
terms
of
lives,
repairs
and
reparations.
L
10
people
died
in
ontario
and
the
cost
of
the
damage
was
estimated
by
the
insurance
bureau
of
canada
to
be
more
than
720
million,
making
it
the
sixth
most
damaging
storm
in
canadian
history,
and
that's
just
for
ontario.
If
there
is
something
we
can
do
about
diminishing
the
likelihood
of
another
such
storm
shouldn't,
we
do
it.
L
Some
may
argue
that
we
don't
have
the
means
to
start
divesting
from
fossil
fuels
or
that
it
would
be
too
expensive
to
do
so.
But
can
we
really
afford
to
pay
for
storms
like
this
one
on
a
regular
basis?
Are
we
willing
for
such
extreme
events,
to
become
more
common
on?
Are
we
prepared
to
accept
the
kind
of
losses
in
life
and
income
that
they
will
bring
as
the
capital
city
of
canada?
I
think
ottawa
should
show
leadership
in
the
effort
to
protect
our
people.
Our
economy
and
our
planet.
L
Make
no
mistake,
as
destructive
weather
becomes
more
and
more
commonplace,
our
economy
will
suffer.
Even
the
head
of
the
international
energy
agency
has
said
that
the
world
cannot
have
any
new
fossil
fuel
projects
if
we
are
to
meet
the
goal
of
keeping
the
global
average
temperature
increase
to
less
than
1.5
degrees
celsius,
and,
as
we've
seen
earlier
in
today's
meeting,
even
a
rise
in
temperature
that
doesn't
seem
like
it
would
be
significant
brings
a
much
higher
climate
hazard
risk
to
our
communities.
L
L
A
Thank
you
very
much
seal,
not
seeing
any
questions
so
appreciate
once
again,
your
your
time
here
today,
all
right,
so
thank
you.
So
no
further
correspondence
or
delegations
questions
for
staff.
We
heard
andrea
sort
of
spread
speak
briefly
to
this
and
why
they
feel
it's
it's.
It's
not
a
risk
at
all
to
to
to
endorse
such
a
such
a
treaty
and
others
have
done
it,
but
any
questions
for
staff
or
or
for
the
for
cancer
mckinney.
As
the
mover,
I'm
not
seeing
any.
A
D
O
A
And
now
we
move
to
item
number
seven,
which
is
the
notion
motion
that
councilman.
I
brought
previously
asking
staff
to
consult
with
the
public
to
bring
the
tree
protection
by
law
in
line
both
suburban
area
and
urban
area
to
be
in
line
with
one
another.
We
do
have
a
delegation
delegations
on
this
as
well.
So
I
don't
know
if
council
bernard
it's
pretty,
it's
pretty
straightforward.
I
don't
know
if
you
need
to
speak
too
much
more
than
what
I
just
said.
A
I'm
good
sure
thank
you,
okay,
so
it's
again
so
that
it's
it's
true,
that's
bylaw
to
decrease
the
distinctive
tree
diameter
to
30
centimeters
in
the
suburban
area.
We've
already
done
this
in
the
urban
area,
this
this
itself,
wouldn't
do
it,
but
we'd
go
out
and
follow
the
same
process
that
we
did
when
we
did
the
reduction
in
the
urban
area.
A
Q
This
is
actually
one
of
the
first
motions
that
issues
that
I
ever
spoke
about
as
a
member
of
cafes
that
was
before
that
was
in
1920
before
cafes,
even
incorporated,
and
just
so
you
know
as
we
grow
as
an
organization
we
incorporated
almost
a
year
ago
now,
and
this
this
this
really
galvanized
my
my
emotions
and
my
presence
on
this
issue.
I
was
already
the
chair
of
the
canada
green
space,
which
is
the
hat
I'll
switch
hats.
Q
So
this
particular
issue
I
struggled
with
back
then,
and
I
struggled
with
it,
not
because
I
worry
I
chastise
myself
frequently.
I
like
to
see
a
lot,
so
I
like
a
high
level
of
view
and
I
often
askew
getting
tied
up
in
the
weeds,
but
the
matters
around
the
size
and
breast
height
of
trees
and
why
we
would
deem
to
protect
a
tree
of
that
characteristic
downtown,
but
it
wasn't
worthy
of
that
protection
in
the
core,
never
sat
in
in
the
suburban
areas.
Never
sat
well
with
me.
Q
Q
Q
The
city
tried
us
tried
to
support
us
with
forestry,
but,
as
you
know,
unless
it's
a
sar
and
there's
only
a
couple
of
them
that
are
actually
evident
in
our
corner
of
ontario,
unless
you've
got
a
species
at
risk,
you
er
and
designate
a
tree.
We
happen
to
have
a
couple
of
butternuts,
but
we
couldn't
say
very
much.
Woodlot
based
on
a
couple
of
butternuts
and
every
tool
that
we
can
get
is
a
tool
that
matters,
because
you
know
something
mary
hegan
said
it.
Well,
I
happen
to
love
mary
hegan.
Q
Mary
hegan
deserves
her
tree.
We
all
deserve
our
tree.
We
deserve.
You
should
go
outside
after
your
meeting
today
and
look
at
a
tree
and
choose
that
tree,
because
each
one
of
them
matters
and
vice
chairman
are
this
motion-
is-
is
logical.
It's
it.
It
doesn't
need
a
huge
delegation,
it's
just
the
right
thing
to
do.
Let's
get
good
policy
and
good
bylaw
and
enforcement
going
in
ottawa.
That's
really
what
we
need.
Q
A
H
Good
morning,
everyone
and
thank
you,
mr
chair,
and
also
thank
you
councillor,
menard,
for
bringing
out
this
motion
is
very
important
to
us
here
in
orleans,
I'm
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
great
avalon
community
association
in
orleans
and
also
as
a
member
of
the
cafes
in
support
of
the
of
counselor
menard's
motion
to
decrease
the
distinction,
the
distinctive
tree
diameter
to
30
centimeters
in
the
suburban
area.
This
issue
was
flagged
by
the
gaca
in
2020,
but
it
it
didn't
get
anywhere.
H
It
wasn't
addressed
in
the
the
tree
protection
bylaw.
So
we're
happy
that
the
motion
is
being
brought
up
again.
Councillor
minard
orleans
was
established
in
1830
by
a
few
farming
settlers
and
in
1958
developers
hit
the
town
and
from
then
then
on.
Things
have
been
the
same
from
81
to
91.
The
population
tripled
to
70
000
and
developers
bought
the
farmland
to
create
the
bedroom
community
that
we
have
today.
H
The
2021
center
census
determined
the
population
determined
or
the
inside
population
of
over
126
in
the
next
few
years,
with
all
the
development
applications
that
are
coming
in
we're
going
to
see
an
increase
easily
of
another
10
to
15
000
10
to
15
000
people
in
in
orleans.
So
you
can
see
that
we're
going
to
be
growing
very
exponentially.
H
H
Not
woods,
for
instance,
is
one
of
the
last
standing
forested
areas
in
in
orleans
and
the
the
reason
why
it's
still
standing
is
because
it
was
you
you
couldn't
build
on
it.
It's
it's
on
solid
rock,
so,
and
the
citizens
of
orleans
really
petitioned
to
get
this.
This
area
preserved
a
forest
or
a
single
tree
is
is
like
a
child.
They
need
care
and
they're
trained
to
grow.
Big
and
strong,
like
every
other
child,
is
different.
H
So
it's
a
treat,
they
grow
differently
and
at
a
different
pace,
depending
on
where
they
grow
and
how
they
and
how
they're
protected
and
nurtured.
We
have
a
90,
centimeter
hackberry
tree
in
front
of
our
house
that
was
planted
by
the
city
22
years
ago.
However,
that
tree
you
can't
compare
it
to
a
maple
or
an
oak
tree.
That's
more
than
22
years
old
that
could
be
much
taller
or
bigger.
H
A
H
Centimeters
is
a
very
small
tree
in
a
new
community
such
as
orleans,
which
is
a
young
community,
and
we
need
all
the
trees
that
we
can
to
preserve
them.
So
I
strongly
recommend
that
you
support
counselor
minars
motion
today
and
possibly
increase
the
recommendation
to
allow
the
same
as
20
30
centimeter
to
apply
also
to
villages
and
other
areas
around
ottawa.
A
All
right,
thank
you,
rochelle
appreciate
today.
I
noticed
in
your
comments
you
mentioned
about,
there's,
really
no
land
left,
but
agricultural
land.
I
will
point
out
that
we
did
come
up
with
a
a
very
highly
misunderstood
proposal
called
the
gold
belt,
which
was
able
to
show
that
the
city
could
actually
grow
out
to
out
to
the
year
2100
and
a
population
of
2
million
people
without
having
to
encroach
on
agricultural
land
or
environmental
sensitive
lands
around
the
city's
perimeter.
A
Obviously
not
what
we'd
want
to
do,
but
it
was
just.
The
exercise
was
to
show
that,
within
its
current
policies,
that
you
could
actually
do
that
without
touching
a
culture
land
now,
council
may
choose
and
sometimes
does
choose
to
build
on
agricultural
land
when
they
don't
have
to,
but
they
don't
have
to
expand
on
a
cultural
land.
There
are
other
options
available.
I
F
F
A
Thank
you,
yeah,
we're
certainly
blessed
at
this
committee.
I
find
everyone
that
we
work
with
whether
it's
in
the
solid
waste
group,
sean
mcpherson
or
not
shopping
for
sorry,
mcdonald's.
That's
the
rvca
staff,
I'm
getting
confused
people
with
with
nicole
and
the
whole
team
over
there,
and
then
you
have
forestry
with
martha.
Then
you
have
andrea
flowers
as
group.
It's
just
we're
we're
very
blessed
with
strong
teams
within
all
the
the
groups
that
we
work
with
at
this
committee.
So
it
helps
us.
A
A
So
the
item
before
us
today
is
that
the
state
committee,
environment,
protection,
water
and
waste
management
recommend
council
direct
staff
to
consult
with
the
public
and
bring
forward
a
report
in
q2
2023
to
amend
these
tree
protection.
Bylaw
2020
340,
to
reduce
the
size
of
a
distinctive
tree
in
the
suburban
area
of
ottawa,
from
50
centimeters
to
30
centimeters
in
diameter,
measured
at
breast
height.
