Subject: Regional LTCs - Committee of Management
EXTERNAL
Good morning everyone,
At a previous area clerks meeting I had mentioned that the province has introduced new screening
requirements for all members of a Committee of Management for Long Term Care homes. The
region operates four LTCs, for which all of Regional Council has previously been considered the
Committee of Management. Having reviewed the matter internally, it has been decided that all
members of Regional Council will continue to form the Committee of Management for the Region's
LTCs. This means that all members elected to Regional Council in the coming term will be required to
complete the new mandatory screening measures, which includes a clean police records check and a
declaration indicating no commencement of proceedings or findings of guilt in the last five years in
relation to a regulated profession or professional association. For the time being, this approach is
consistent with other upper -tier municipalities who are also grappling with the new requirements.
Attached please find a letter addressed to all candidates seeking election to a position on Regional
Council which describes the new screening requirements in detail. I would ask that you please
distribute it by e-mail at your earliest convenience to all of your candidates that will be seeking
election to a position that sits on Regional Council, and include a copy of the letter in your
nomination packages for any future candidates. We are happy to answer any questions that may
arise from candidates, and discuss this further at next week's area clerks meeting if needed. I hope
everyone's having an enjoyable summer and election season so far.
All the best,

Dear Regional Council Candidate,
The Regional RE: Region of Durham Long Term Care Homes, Committee of
Municipality of
Durham Management Appointments
Legislative Services
Thank you for expressing your interest in seeking election to a position
on Regional Council for the Regional Municipality of Durham. As an
605 Rossland Rd. E.
upper -tier municipality, the Region provides several functions and
Level 1
PO Box 623
services that are not provided by the lower tier municipalities in Durham,
Whitby, ON L1 N 6A3
one of which is the operation of Long -Term Care (LTC) homes. In
Canada
accordance with provincial legislation, a municipality that operates one
or more LTCs must have a Committee of Management comprised of
8-7711 x 2100
elected members of Regional Council. The Region of Durham currently
1-800- 372-1102
1-800-
operates four LTCs, for which all members of Regional Council form the

Alexander Harras
In April of 2022, the Province of Ontario passed the Fixing Long -Term
Regional Clerk &
Director of Legislative
Care Act and its associated Regulation 246/22. Section 256 of the
Services
Regulation introduces new mandatory screening measures that
members of an LTC Committee of Management must complete.
Therefore, for the 2022-2026 term of office, all elected members of
Durham Regional Council will be required to complete the screening
measures mandated by the provincial government. Failure to complete
and pass the screening will result in an elected member being unable to
participate or vote on any matters that come before Regional Council
related to the Region's Long -Term Care homes, as they will not be an
eligible member of the Committee of Management.
The new screening measures mandated by the Province of Ontario
include:
A criminal record check, completed by the elected member no earlier
than six months prior to the date the member is sworn into office and
no later than one month after the member is sworn into office; and
If you require this information in an accessible format, please contact Kaitlin Smith at 1-800-372-1102
ext. 2102.

To whom it may concern:
Please be advised that Brantford City Council at its meeting held July 26, 2022 adopted the
following:
12.4.9 Potential threat to residential home ownership
WHEREAS concerns from Brantford homeowners have been voiced regarding single
family homes being purchased for purposes other than family residency, which practice
is a factor in driving up the price of home values making home ownership out of reach
for first time home buyers; and
WHEREAS an article in the Toronto Star, Sunday edition reports a case where a
foreign national is being investigated for money laundering by "investing" in houses and
housing developments in Vancouver. Financial and law enforcement experts say this
problem extends to other Canadian cities, most notably in the GTA; and
WHEREAS the Province of British Columbia created an Expert Committee to
investigate money laundering in residential real estate, which made several
recommendations to the Provincial government to change the Provincial laws and for
the Province to make changes to Federal laws to prevent this type of money laundering
from occurring; and
WHEREAS the Council of The Corporation of the City of Brantford is very concerned
with the rising cost of housing caused by money laundering through the purchase of
residential real estate;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED:
A. THAT the Council of The Corporation of the City of Brantford respectfully CALLS
UPON the Province of Ontario to create a similar Expert Committee as was done
in British Columbia, to investigate what regulatory action can be taken to better
combat money laundering in the Ontario real estate market; and
B. THAT the Council of The Corporation of the City of Brantford respectfully CALLS
UPON the Province of Ontario to implement whatever legislative changes may be
necessary to combat money laundering in the Ontario real estate market; and

suspected money laundering; and
D. THAT the City Clerk BE DIRECTED to forward a copy of this resolution to the
Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO), Ontario Big City Mayors (OBCM)
and the list of other Ontario Municipalities with a request that those municipalities
pass similar resolutions, and
E. THAT the Clerk BE DIRECTED to forward a copy of this resolution to The
