1.

PROPOSED TRANS MOUNTAIN EXPANSION PROJECT - UPDATE

 

 

The City Manager submitted a report from Director of Planning and Building, the Director of Engineering and the City Solicitor to provide Council with an update on the scheduled hearing dates, summary of some notable findings from the National Energy Board (NEB) process and comments on the draft NEB conditions with respect to the proposed Trans Mountain Pipeline Expansion Project.

Council discussed the recent NEB postponement of the Oral Summary Argument hearings. The hearings have been postponed until further notice as the NEB has decided to strike all evidence prepared by NEB appointee and former Kinder Morgan consultant, Mr. S. Kelly. Council shared their concerns with the postponement of the hearings and the implications of the late exclusion of evidence including: the impacts on the interveners, the lack of Federal government foresight in the appointment of Mr. Kelly to the board, the opportune timing of the postponement for the federal government given the upcoming election, and expressed a general loss of faith in the processes of the NEB moving forward. Council concluded by appealing to local MP’s and all federal candidates to raise this issue in the public forum.

NOTICE OF MOTION

 

 

A)

Councillor Colleen Jordan

Re: National Pharmacare Strategy

 

 

MOVED BY COUNCILLOR C. JORDAN

SECONDED BY COUNCILLOR D. JOHNSTON

 

“WHEREAS the City of Burnaby has recognized and has demonstrated over the past years, its commitment to the importance of healthy citizens as the foundation of a healthy, engaged and economically vibrant community; and

 

WHEREAS over 3 million Canadians, including many in our local communities, don’t take medicines prescribed by their doctors because they can’t afford them; and

 

 

WHEREAS Canada is currently the ONLY country with a national medicare program that does not have a national pharmacare program; and

 

WHEREAS the risk of having no insurance for medicines is high among lower income Canadians which includes the service industry, precarious working and seasonal workers, like many in the City of Burnaby; and

 

WHEREAS studies show that adding a national pharmacare program to our national health care system would lower costs to businesses by over $8 billion per year, providing Canadian companies competitive advantages in international trade; and

 

WHEREAS recent research confirms that these gains can be achieved with little or no increase in public investment; and

 

WHEREAS municipal government expenses for employee benefits would be significantly reduced by a national pharmacare program; and

 

WHEREAS a national prescription drug formulary would support better quality prescribing, including reducing dangerous and inappropriate prescribing to Canadian seniors; and

 

WHEREAS a national pharmacare plan is sound policy, both economically and socially,

 

THE CITY OF BURNABY CALLS on the UBCM to urge the Province of British Columbia to work with other provinces and the Federal Government to develop and implement a national pharmacare program; and

 

THAT the City of Burnaby and the UBCM also urge the Federation of Canadian Municipalities to adopt a similar resolution respecting the Federal government; and

 

THAT the City of Burnaby convey the decision of Council on this resolution to the local MPs, the Minister of Health, the Premier of British Columbia, the Federal Minister of Health and the Prime Minister.”
