Notice of Motion

12.1

Luther Vipond Memorial Arena - Naming

Moved By: Councillor Lee
Seconded By: Mayor Roy

• Recommendation:

  Whereas Luther Vipond (1914–1982) was a life long resident of Brooklin/Whitby who distinguished himself over a 5 decade period as an athlete, coach, manager, executive, sponsor, mentor, and community builder; and,

  Whereas Luther Vipond was an accomplished lacrosse player, but as with many of his contemporaries, Luther’s lacrosse career gave way to the more pressing matters of WWII and he was among the 14,000 Canadians who landed on Normandy’s beaches on D–Day on June 6, 1944; and,

  Whereas Luther Vipond was among the volunteers who erected a new arena in Brooklin, and in 1954 Luther assumed the role of Brooklin (Whitby Township) arena manager, a position he would hold until his retirement in 1979. Luther was active during these years as a coach of Brooklin minor lacrosse and hockey teams; and,

  Whereas the Town is currently undertaking community engagement on the future use of Luther Vipond Memorial Arena.

  Now Therefore be it Resolved:

  That, regardless of the future community use identified for the Luther Vipond Memorial Arena and site, that the recognition of Luther Vipond and his name remain a key feature.

12.2

Request to Establish Protected Access Zones Around Sensitive Places

Moved By: Councillor Leahy
Seconded By: Councillor Yamada

• Recommendation:

  Whereas freedom of expression and demonstrations are protected by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms;

  Whereas repeated demonstrations in front of certain places in the municipality, including religious institutions, community centres, and educational institutions, can cause significant disruptions to communities;

  Whereas disruptions may include excessive noise pollution, obstruction of pedestrian and road traffic, intimidating behaviour toward users, and constant pressure on municipal services;

  Whereas Canadian municipalities such as the City of Toronto, Town of Oakville, City of Vaughan, City of Brampton, and City of Côte Saint-Luc have recently adopted municipal by-laws establishing bubble zones prohibiting assembly around certain locations to protect citizens and institutions while respecting fundamental rights;

  Whereas courts in several provinces have already issued temporary injunctions to restrict certain demonstration activities near sensitive locations highlighting the need for a permanent regulatory framework;

  Now therefore be it resolved:

  1. That Town Council request that Legal and Enforcement Services Department staff prepare a draft by-law to create protected access zones with a 50-metre radius around the following locations, at the request of the institution concerned:
     
     1. Places of worship;
     2. Educational institutions;
     3. Early childhood centres and daycares;
     4. Community centres; and,
     5. ⁠Healthcare facilities.
  2. That these zones be established for a period of one (1) year, renewable, without the institution being required to demonstrate prior protest, assembly or demonstration activity;
  3. That the following activities be prohibited in these zones:
     
     1. ⁠Any form of intimidation or harassment towards users of the premises;
     2. Any physical obstruction of entry or exit;
     3. The use of sound amplification devices intended to disrupt the normal operation of the establishment; and,
     4. ⁠Any protest, assembly, demonstration or other gathering activity intended to prevent access or disturb public order.
  4. That fines for violations of this by-law may be up to $5,000 in accordance with the provisions of the Provincial Offences Act;
  5. That this by-law be applicable throughout the municipality;
  6. That consultation be conducted with community organizations, specialized legal experts, and advocacy organizations to ensure that the by-law balances the right to protest and public protection; and,
  7. That the municipality produce an annual report on the effects of this by-law and assess its impact on citizen safety, the functioning of the institutions concerned, and respect for fundamental freedoms.

12.3

Strengthening Canada’s Economy by Diversifying Trade

Moved By: Councillor Shahid
Seconded By: Mayor Roy

• Recommendation:

  Whereas the tariffs imposed by the White House are wreaking havoc on the global economic order and posing serious economic threats to communities on both sides of the Canada-US border; and,

  Whereas the Federation of Canadian Municipalities has contributed to Team Canada by working closely with the Government of Canada and the provinces and territories, and forging strong relationships with American municipalities and municipal associations to raise awareness about the benefits of free and fair trade between Canada and the negative economic impacts that tariffs pose to their local communities; and,

  Whereas the turn towards protectionism by the world’s largest economy and Canada’s top trading partner creates long-term uncertainty for the Canadian economy, necessitating a pivot to new trading relationships, both in Canada and abroad; and,

  Whereas eliminating internal trade barriers could allow Canada’s economy to grow by up to $200 billion per year; and,

  Whereas numerous Canadian municipalities have committed to re-evaluate their procurement policies in the context of this trade dispute; and,

  Whereas municipal governments are working with their local business associations to find new export markets, both within Canada and around the world; and,

  Whereas diversifying Canada’s trading relationships will require a long-term effort to establish new international markets; and,

  Whereas increasing the flow of goods east-west across Canada and through Pacific, Arctic, and Atlantic ports will require investment in trade infrastructure, including municipal infrastructure such as municipal roads, bridges and public transit infrastructure.

  Now therefore, be it resolved:

  1. That the Council of the Town of Whitby calls on the federal, provincial and territorial governments to reduce remaining internal trade barriers on an urgent basis;
  2. That the Council of the Town of Whitby calls on the federal government to provide advice and guidance to municipalities on how to increase the procurement of goods and services from alternative markets;
  3. That the Council of the Town of Whitby calls on the federal government to provide support to municipal governments and their local economic development agencies, to develop, enhance or expand their international trade strategies, and conduct and/or expand trade missions and other trade promotion activities to help local businesses establish new markets; and,
  4. That the Council of the Town of Whitby calls on the federal government to ensure that municipal infrastructure is eligible for federal investment through new federal trade infrastructure programs.     

12.4

Supporting Canadians through a Stronger Canada Disability Benefit

Moved By: Councillor Shahid
Seconded By: Mayor Roy

• Recommendation:

  Whereas over four million working age Canadians 18 and older identify as having a disability, and of these, approximately 1.6 million have a severe or very severe disability; and,

  Whereas those working age Canadians with disabilities experience poverty at twice the rate of Canadians without disabilities; and,

  Whereas the federal government has recognized the importance of reducing poverty and supporting working-age persons with disabilities through the 2023 enactment of the Canada Disability Benefit Act; and,

  Whereas the federal government has further committed $6.1 billion over six years, beginning in 2025, and $1.4 billion per year ongoing, through a new Canada Disability Benefit program, expected to be launched in June 2025; and,

  Whereas the federal government has sought public feedback to inform how the Canada Disability Benefit will be administered and delivered; and,

  Whereas the Town of Whitby supports community well-being, and has a vested interest in ensuring that individuals with disabilities receive adequate financial support from other orders of government that lifts the recipients out of poverty and does not create new barriers to pursuing employment.

  Now therefore, be it resolved:

  1. That the Council of the Town of Whitby calls on the federal government to raise the maximum payment above the proposed $2,400 per year maximum to an amount that is adequate to lift people with disabilities above the poverty line, and increase the working income exemptions (currently $10,000 per year for a single person, or $14,000 per year for a couple) before their benefits would be reduced; and,
  2. That the Council of the Town of Whitby calls on the federal government to strengthen coordination with provinces and territories who also provide other supports and services to persons with disabilities, to help streamline and integrate application processes while also ensuring that there is no reduction in other funding supports provided to people with disabilities.
