Watch and Learn: Delegate from Dufferin County…

Stop the extension of mandatory v bylaws for public workers in Orangeville in January 2023. The council wanted to extend the mandatory v for public workers but after a full lineup of delegates the meeting ended with a unanimous Vote to Rescind the bylaw!

Watch the Vote

Watch the full line up of delegations.

What you can do:

1. take this example of successful delegations, and

2. pair it with the National Citizens Inquiry Commissioners Report - Available Now.

3. find the original motion to adopt any mandates related to cv19.

4. draft clear recommendations for councils to reconsider these resolution and bylaws

5. draft a statement of support for residents to sign

6. and prepare to be a delegate to your local council. (you can join the KICLEI zooms to see how we prepare for similar delegations on net zero policies)

The NCI is gearing up to take their report to local councils

The NCI “has been created to support the following objectives:

1. TO LISTEN to the stories of Canadians impacted by the health protection measures adopted, and to the testimonies of experts, including those whose narratives differ from the governmental narrative.

• 3-out-of-4 Canadians report having been harmed by Canada’s COVID-19 policies.

• In particular, Canadians expressed harms concerning isolation, increased divorce or family tension, disruptions to the lives of children and students, job and income losses, business failures, increased mental and physical health stress, reduced healthcare quality, and limitations on rights and freedoms.

2. TO LEARN what went right and what went wrong during the past three years, and what are the lessons to be learned from Canada’s COVID-19 experience?

3. TO RECOMMEND ways and means of ensuring that any future national crises are better managed, harms mitigated, and trust in public institutions upheld.”
