Kathleen Wynne seeks two jobs as premier GREGGCHAMBERLAIN gregg.chamberlain@eap.on.ca
“Because I have heard a number of con- cerns,” Wynne said, referring to her cam- paign travels through Ontario’s rural sec- tors. “I need to listen very closely to the agricultural sector.” Quizzed about whether she would review and consider revising the current farm tax setup that is a financial thorn in the side of many municipal and county governments, Wynne said that is an issue that both the agriculture and municipal affairs ministries could work on together. During her past years in the Dalton Mc- Guinty Liberal government Wynne has held the posts of education minister, transporta-
ROCKLAND | Council has appointed Gilles Maranda as the newDirector of Infrastruc- ture and Engineering Services for the City of Clarence-Rockland. Maranda has held several executive po- sitions at the Department of National De- fence and possesses an MBA and a BA in Engineering from the Military College in Kingston. A Clarence-Rockland resident, Maranda has participated in numerous in- ternational missions with the Royal Cana- dian Navy. “I would like to welcome Mr. Maranda within our team” said Mayor Marcel Gui- bord. “Our municipality is growing and his experience in management and engineer- ing will definitely be an asset.” City hires new infrastructure director The Ontario Liberal leadership conven- tion is Jan. 26 in Toronto. Wynne expressed confidence that she is one of the strong contenders among the seven candidates. “I’ve got a shot at it,” she said. “What we need now is a premier who can reach out and bring the people together.” VISION@EAP.ON.CA PRESCOTT-RUSSELL tion minister, municipal affairs and housing, and aboriginal affairs. She expressed satisfaction with a recent government promise to abolish Bill 115, which has resulted in strikes and other forms of protest from teacher and support unions in the education sector. “I’m glad Bill 115 will be repealed,” she said. “It’s a high priority of mine to bring all the (education) partners together and work together.” During the teleconference, Wynne high- lighted her strategy for increasing local au- tonomy for municipal and county councils along with maintaining investment in local infrastructure improvements and dealing with both regional and community trans- portation needs along with calling on the federal government to develop a national transit strategy that includes investment in community transportation. “I want to make sure our municipalities, our cities, our towns have the tools and the infrastructure that allow them to flourish,” Wynne said. “We (Ontario Liberal) have a great record as a government of investing in roads and bridges and public transit.” Concerning municipal autonomy, Wynne cited the Green Energy Act as an example of past legislation from her own govern- ment that focused on one concern at the expense of local government control over neighbourhood development. The legisla- tion allowed the province to overrule or circumvent local planning and zoning pro- cedure to help fast-track development of solar farms, wind farms and other “green” energy projects. Wynne recognized that the legislation has created some ill will among councils in both the urban and rural sectors and indicated that she would like to re-visit the Green Energy Act. “We need to make sure we have willing partners,” she said. “I’m not sure we got it right the first time.”
If Kathleen Wynne succeeds in winning the majority support at the Ontario Lib- eral leadership convention she plans on holding down two jobs after taking her oath of office. Wynne told regional media during a Jan. 3 teleconference that she will not just be the new premier of Ontario, but also its ag- riculture minister. At least for about a year’s time.
