Halton Region Integrated Growth Management Strategy (IGMS) Evaluation Criteria Ontario is growing and the provincial government has directed Halton Region to plan for 1,000,000 people and 470,000 jobs by 2041. Halton Region -- which includes Oakville, Burlington, Milton and Halton Hills -- is currently determining where the additional people and jobs should go. A portion of these people and jobs will come to Oakville. Halton Region has created a number of different scenarios of where people and jobs should go within the Region as part of its IGMS. Halton Region has also created a set of criteria to help choose the best scenario. Town Council wants your input on which of the criteria are most important to Oakville and how much importance should be given to each criterion. Join your Ward Councillors at one of the following meetings to give your input. If you are unable to attend the meeting for your Ward, you are welcome to attend any of the other meetings.

Bronte | 2419 Marine Drive Call Debbie at 1-855-788-2068 The Town of Oakville would later apologize for this removal, noting town staff at the event were not aware of Elections Canada requirements related to candidates. The Town of Oakville's director of strategy, policy and communications, Jane Courtemanche, said what unfolded at Kerrfest was different. She said Kerrfest is not a town event, but rather is run by the Kerr Village BIA. "The town provides an- nual funding to all three BI- As to support their activi- ties. As a result, the BIAs recognize the town as a sponsor for events," said Courtemanche. She also drew attention to section 81.1 of the Canada Elections Act, which lists the places where a candi- date cannot be prevented from campaigning.from campaigning.f These areas are de- scribed as public places that are open "without charge" to members of the public. The words "without charge" are significant be- cause an admission fee was required to enter Kerrfest. Myriam Croussette, se- nior communications ad- viser for the Office of the Commissioner of Canada Elections confirmed that section 81.1 of the Canada Elections Act does not ap- ply if an admission is paid to attend an event. Meaney argues it shouldn't be OK to remove someone from a public place for wearing a PPC shirt and handing out a few business cards. Oakville PPC Party trea- surer Bruno Santia, who was also escorted out of Kerrfest, said if those are the rules than they should be applied uniformly. "We don't mind playing by the rules, but are the rules the same for every- body here," he asked. "We're being targeted. This is twice now." Meaney said he will con- tinue his efforts to spread the PPC message in Oak- ville, including at future Oakville public events. "We'll never stop," he said.
