Chères citoyennes et chers
[0:35]
citoyens, Bienvenue à cette
[0:37]
séance régulière du conseil
[0:38]
municipal du 16 août 2022.
[0:47]
Avant de débuter la séance du
[0:49]
conseil municipal, permettez-moi
[0:51]
de rendre hommage au directeur
[0:54]
général de la Ville, M. Weemaes,
[0:57]
qui nous quitte à la fin du mois
[0:58]
d'août pour relever de nouveaux
[1:00]
défis à titre de directeur
[1:02]
général de l'Association des
[1:06]
municipalités de banlieue de
[1:09]
l'Île de Montréal. M. Weemaes
[1:10]
cumule 48 ans d'expérience dans
[1:12]
le domaine municipal, dont près
[1:14]
de 45 ans à titre de directeur
[1:18]
général, dans dix municipalités
[1:22]
québécoises. Après avoir
[1:26]
commencé sa carrière à Gagnon,
[1:29]
Chapais et Chibougamau dans le
[1:30]
nord de la province, son talent
[1:32]
a été rapidement perçu et
[1:36]
l'impact de sa gestion de plus
[1:37]
en plus reconnu à Beloeil,
[1:39]
Saint-Lambert, Granby,
[1:41]
Repentigny, Gatineau et
[1:42]
Pointe-Claire.
[1:47]
Il a oeuvré et collaboré auprès
[1:49]
de 16 maires, plus de 170 élus
[1:51]
et 12000 employés.
[1:57]
M. Weemaes, si on fait un calcul
[2:00]
rapide, vous avez participé à
[2:02]
plus de 1 000 séances publiques
[2:03]
dans votre carrière.
[2:11]
Vous êtes un gestionnaire
[2:13]
d'exception. Vous savez
[2:15]
reconnaître le mérite de chacune
[2:17]
et chacun, l'innovation et
[2:20]
l'excellence de vos équipes. Je
[2:22]
tiens à souligner votre travail
[2:24]
et votre engagement au sein de
[2:25]
la Ville de Pointe-Claire. Vous
[2:27]
êtes un gestionnaire
[2:32]
d'expérience compétent, intègre
[2:33]
et professionnel. Grâce à vous,
[2:35]
de nombreux projets ont été
[2:36]
réalisés à la Ville de
[2:38]
Pointe-Claire, au bénéfice de
[2:39]
toute notre communauté.
[2:43]
D'ailleurs, en 2017, vous avez
[2:45]
reçu à ce titre le prix
[2:48]
Distinction de l'Association des
[2:50]
directeurs généraux des
[2:53]
municipalités du Québec en tant
[2:54]
que directeur général de l'année
[2:58]
parmi toutes les
[3:06]
villes de la province. C'est
[3:07]
tout un honneur. Le conseil
[3:08]
municipal se joint à moi pour
[3:09]
vous souhaiter bon succès dans
[3:11]
vos nouvelles fonctions à titre
[3:13]
de directeur général de
[3:14]
l'Association des municipalités
[3:15]
de banlieue de l'île de
[3:17]
Montréal. Nous avons eu de la
[3:18]
chance de vous compter parmi
[3:20]
nous ces huit dernières années.
[3:23]
Vous êtes une sommité dans le
[3:26]
domaine municipal et vous
[3:29]
laissez derrière vous de grands
[3:30]
souliers à chausser! Bravo pour
[3:31]
votre parcours remarquable au
[3:33]
service des citoyennes et
[3:35]
citoyens. M. Weemaes, nous vous
[3:39]
souhaitons une bonne dernière
[3:41]
séance régulière du conseil
[3:43]
municipal de Pointe-Claire!
[3:49]
(applaudissements)
[6:30]
J'aimerais également souligner
[6:31]
le travail du Service de la
[6:32]
culture, des sports, des loisirs
[6:33]
et du développement
[6:36]
communautaire pour les
[6:37]
merveilleuses Journées de
[6:38]
Pointe-Claire et l'équipe des
[6:40]
communications pour leur soutien
[6:41]
dans la promotion des activités.
[6:45]
Je pense que les événements se
[6:49]
sont très bien déroulés - la
[6:50]
Foire de Valois était super et
[6:52]
très fréquentée, le Festival de
[6:56]
cuisine internationale était
[6:58]
incroyable, la conférence et
[7:00]
l'activité de bricolage à la
[7:02]
bibliothèque étaient appréciées
[7:03]
et la journée sur l'eau à la
[7:04]
baie de Valois a également été
[7:08]
populaire pour les résidents de
[7:15]
Pointe-Claire. Cependant, je
[7:17]
suis un peu déçu par la
[7:18]
fréquentation du Centre sportif
[7:22]
Olive-Urquhart pour les portes
[7:24]
ouvertes lorsque je suis passé
[7:25]
dimanche en début d'après-midi.
[7:26]
Ce sont d'excellentes
[7:28]
installations et j'espère
[7:29]
qu'avec le retour à l'école, le
[7:32]
centre sera plus fréquenté.
[7:36]
C'était une excellente première
[7:37]
fois! Félicitations à tous!

(---)
[11:13]
.
[16:48]
>> No, sir. I'm not smearing or
[16:51]
implying, I'm asking for
[16:52]
clarification. I'm asking if
[16:54]
this man into this man and the
[16:56]
rest of Council going to backup
[16:58]
what he said?
[16:59]
>> I've given you clarity.
[17:01]
>> So nobody else is going to
[17:04]
back up the words that they've
[17:06]
said?
[17:07]
>> I've given you enough
[17:08]
clarity.
[17:09]
>> I think we should call an
[17:11]
investigation.
[17:12]
[laughs]
[17:13]
please. Yes, sir?
[17:18]
>> Mr. Stork would like to
[17:20]
respond.
[17:21]
>> I would like to hear your
[17:22]
question. You are not organizing
[17:24]
these chambers and have no say.
[17:25]
What can I do for you? Do you
[17:27]
have a question? I've given you
[17:29]
permission to ask the question.
[17:30]
>> Thank you. So I will start,
[17:34]
I've got a few little questions,
[17:36]
but my preamble. It's very
[17:38]
disturbing to read these things
[17:40]
online and I'm going to add the
[17:42]
Pointe-Claire journal, for most
[17:43]
of us in my generation, it's
[17:45]
probably younger generations,
[17:46]
see it as almost a propaganda
[17:50]
rag. My seven neighbours. I only
[17:53]
have seven neighbours on my
[17:54]
street. My seven neighbours give
[17:56]
me their Pointe-Claire journals
[17:58]
unopened and unread to put into
[18:00]
my recycling bag to go to my
[18:02]
parents so they can bring them.
[18:04]
It's our fire starter. That is
[18:05]
what most people use the
[18:08]
Pointe-Claire journal for.
[18:10]
Insinuating that the
[18:11]
Pointe-Claire journal is the
[18:12]
most red paper and
[18:14]
Pointe-Claire.
[18:15]
>> It is.
[18:16]
>> I would love to see your
[18:17]
statistics on that and see. Most
[18:20]
delivered? Yes, it goes into all
[18:22]
our mailboxes and we really wish
[18:23]
it didn't. We wish it stayed
[18:26]
where it came from and did not
[18:28]
use the new trees or recycled
[18:31]
paper to make it. I don't read
[18:34]
it. None of my neighbours read
[18:35]
it. We don't think it's anything
[18:37]
worth reading. To say the
[18:39]
Mayor's message goes on the
[18:41]
Pointe-Claire website, the
[18:44]
Pointe-Claire newsletter, that
[18:45]
can be emailed to all residents
[18:46]
who sign up for it. That is
[18:47]
where it should be, not in some
[18:52]
propaganda rag that is extremely
[18:55]
one-sided and not balanced. I
[18:58]
would like to say, I'm very
[19:02]
happy to see all these people
[19:03]
here. It's a pretty good crowd.
[19:04]
>> They are all waiting for a
[19:06]
question. Other than an
[19:09]
editorial, we would like to hear
[19:11]
a question. Please get your
[19:17]
question.
[19:18]
>> I will cite some of the
[19:19]
people that spoke at the July
[19:21]
meeting that I was unfortunately
[19:22]
unable to attend because I
[19:24]
contracted COVID. So the average
[19:27]
speaker with six minutes, that
[19:29]
was the average, some had three,
[19:31]
some had ten. I think you owe me
[19:34]
a little bit of time. I just
[19:37]
want to, I will be short. My
[19:40]
questions are brief, so just
[19:41]
give me a little more leeway
[19:42]
here. I'm just saying I know
[19:46]
everyone is here to -- hear
[19:51]
appeals of demolition and
[19:53]
development, bylaw changes that
[19:55]
are proposed in the minutes.
[19:56]
It's just mind-boggling that
[19:58]
these same people live in a
[20:01]
building that my in laws had to
[20:02]
put up with the construction,
[20:04]
because it was around the corner
[20:06]
from their house. So again, we
[20:09]
are in this situation of the
[20:10]
city and not in my backyard, but
[20:12]
then in my backyard I would love
[20:13]
to have development in my
[20:16]
backyard like the City of
[20:17]
Toronto just passed a bylaw to
[20:19]
allow carriage houses and
[20:20]
secondary houses in their
[20:21]
backyard. That's a really good
[20:24]
way of getting densification on
[20:28]
our large private lots. I could
[20:31]
build another place behind my
[20:32]
place and rented out at a low
[20:34]
rate and get densification,
[20:35]
low-cost housing, and
[20:36]
everything. So my questions
[20:41]
asked --. In the June meeting,
[20:46]
the evaluation criteria to be
[20:47]
used within the framework of the
[20:49]
call for tenders for
[20:51]
professional services and the
[20:52]
participatory process of the
[20:53]
provisions of planning and
[20:55]
program and planning bylaws was
[20:57]
approved. I'm gathering this was
[20:59]
for the tender for the ICB, or
[21:03]
the planning process, the public
[21:06]
addressing process. When is the
[21:09]
tender going to be awarded? When
[21:10]
will we find out more about this
[21:13]
public process that you have
[21:14]
been promising us for eight
[21:15]
months now.
[21:17]
>> It's actually less than that
[21:19]
because we did not get there
[21:20]
until a few months ago. So it's
[21:21]
not eight months.
[21:22]
>> You have been promising it
[21:23]
for eight months.
[21:24]
>> We have not decided who and
[21:25]
where the RGI applied before we
[21:27]
could even go to tender. So you
[21:28]
are incorrect in your statement,
[21:31]
but I will actually ask Mr.
[21:34]
Weemaes if he has a timeline. Do
[21:36]
you have any timeline on the
[21:39]
consultation?
[21:40]
>> It takes six months for
[21:42]
professional services. It will
[21:43]
come up in the coming weeks or
[21:45]
coming months, but I don't have.
[21:47]
>> Thank you, Mr. Fujita.
[21:49]
>> My second question. This
[21:55]
spring, sorry timelines I've
[21:56]
been very busy, if there was a
[21:58]
call of the four applications
[21:59]
from residents for the
[22:00]
environmental and sustainable
[22:03]
development advisory committee.
[22:04]
What happened with that? Where
[22:05]
has it gone? I applied and never
[22:07]
heard anything from anybody
[22:09]
about that application, not even
[22:11]
a thank you or anything. But it
[22:13]
would be really nice to know
[22:14]
about these things. And you talk
[22:19]
about the City communication?
[22:20]
There is one of them.
[22:21]
>> Go ahead, Kelly.
[22:22]
>> I'm sorry if you did not hear
[22:24]
back. There was a delay in the
[22:25]
process, what I thought everyone
[22:27]
did hear back and the interviews
[22:29]
would be within the next four
[22:30]
weeks. We had to reschedule them
[22:31]
for various reasons. The
[22:33]
interviews will be coming within
[22:35]
the last week of August, first
[22:36]
week of September, but
[22:38]
Councillor Tremblay and I will
[22:40]
follow up to make sure anyone
[22:41]
who did apply, and is not going
[22:43]
to be interviewed, will receive
[22:46]
the feedback either way.
[22:49]
>> Thank you. Appreciate that.
[23:00]
>> How you doing? Could they all
[23:04]
attendance of this meeting and
[23:07]
Council. Subject of the question
[23:10]
I will be asking today.
[23:12]
>> Sorry, sir. What is your name
[23:14]
please?
[23:15]
>> My name is Raymond -- I live
[23:17]
on 15 Compton Crescent in
[23:18]
Pointe-Claire. The subject of
[23:23]
this appearance is water
[23:25]
fluoridation. There is an
[23:27]
ongoing petition that so far has
[23:29]
30 -- 3170 residents of
[23:36]
Pointe-Claire having signed a
[23:37]
petition. In terms of the
[23:39]
numbers, just put on my timer so
[23:42]
I make it under ten minutes.
[23:46]
>> Ten is generous, but okay.
[23:49]
>> As for the numbers I
[23:54]
surveyed, I have been keeping
[23:55]
stats and accurate stats of the
[24:00]
last 660 households who had the
[24:02]
choice of saying yes to the
[24:03]
petition. In terms of yes,
[24:07]
ending the policy of water
[24:09]
fluoridation by Montréal
[24:10]
Pointe-Claire. And of those 660
[24:12]
households, I spoken to you
[24:14]
before and you told me in order
[24:16]
to have the resolution passed I
[24:18]
would have to show that the
[24:20]
majority of residents are
[24:24]
against the policy. So of the
[24:29]
last 660 households, 50 to minus
[24:38]
19, I can't do that real quick,
[24:40]
it's 30 something households,
[24:43]
each section taking about three
[24:44]
hours or ten hours to do. After
[24:47]
660 households, 495 said yeah,
[24:51]
meaning 75% of households
[24:53]
signed. This is the last 660.
[25:05]
Île where is the topical
[25:13]
application Île, raise over 10%
[25:15]
of Pointe-Claire's voting
[25:17]
population signed a petition,
[25:20]
over 75% of respondents the last
[25:24]
consecutive neighbourhoods,
[25:25]
consecutive household, have said
[25:27]
yes. On November 21st, 2020, my
[25:36]
city councillor, Mister Cowan,
[25:37]
came out with me for three and a
[25:39]
half hours at noticed the same
[25:40]
stats. 80% of household people
[25:42]
who answered their doors said
[25:45]
yes and a petition. I could keep
[25:47]
going for the next two years and
[25:48]
it will say the exact same
[25:50]
thing. Whether it's 3170, or
[25:56]
70,000. -- 7000. Whereas topical
[26:05]
application of medical grade
[26:07]
fluoride provides the majority
[26:09]
of protected benefit against
[26:10]
cavities, where is the purpose
[26:11]
of the public water supply is to
[26:13]
supply water to the entire
[26:14]
community which is composed of
[26:16]
people with varying health
[26:18]
conditions and various stages of
[26:19]
life and in various economic
[26:21]
status, and not to forcibly
[26:22]
medicate the population. Whereas
[26:25]
Pointe-Claire's residents never
[26:26]
gave their consent to be masked
[26:28]
medicated. Systemic application
[26:30]
removes medical consent and
[26:31]
freedom of choice, when fluoride
[26:34]
is -- supplied the drinking
[26:36]
water. There's no control with
[26:38]
the amount of fluoride that is
[26:39]
consumed, which can lead to
[26:41]
excessive consumption. Where is
[26:43]
less than 1% of the water used
[26:44]
for drinking, while 99% of water
[26:51]
is intended for other uses,
[26:53]
industry along care, plushy,
[26:54]
toilet centre. Making the policy
[26:56]
of wasted taxpayer money, much
[26:59]
of that fluoridated water can
[27:00]
escape into the environment
[27:01]
where it has considerable
[27:05]
effects and wears the substance
[27:10]
-- so this is the spec sheet
[27:15]
from the City of Montréal, is
[27:16]
against the policy themselves.
[27:18]
It clearly says here, industrial
[27:20]
use only. As a gift to the
[27:22]
aquatic environment. Toxic if
[27:24]
swallowed. It is nothing about
[27:26]
dental decay or cavities. The
[27:29]
same substance is on the market
[27:32]
for ceramics and glass. Only
[27:33]
four plants in the entire of
[27:36]
Québec still flora date. It's
[27:39]
illegal to Florida and the
[27:40]
Netherlands, fanned in Israel
[27:42]
2019. Only two countries for a
[27:44]
date in Europe, and
[27:46]
Pointe-Claire as a policy in
[27:48]
place saying they will end it
[27:51]
anyways. So the majority of
[27:56]
households for the last 600
[28:01]
households,, if 76% of them are
[28:06]
saying no, I see no reason why
[28:08]
we can't pass the resolution.
[28:12]
Where is the substance sodium
[28:16]
silicoflouride is not
[28:17]
pharmaceutical grade like a
[28:24]
dental clinic, that substance
[28:25]
would be even illegal for
[28:27]
dentists to use in their dental
[28:28]
clinic. The substance actually
[28:33]
comes from Jacksonville,
[28:35]
Florida. Montréal themselves are
[28:37]
against the process. Montréal
[28:39]
city is historically never
[28:40]
fluoridated their water. Rather
[28:53]
in industrial grade type, one
[28:55]
that is most likely
[28:56]
contaminated, so that substance
[28:58]
is not approved or regulated by
[29:01]
Health Canada to treat dental
[29:02]
decay.
[29:05]
>> Fluoride can cause harmful --
[29:08]
harm to the brain and body in
[29:10]
particular, during early
[29:13]
development, therefore be it
[29:14]
resolved to the City Council of
[29:16]
the city of Pointe-Claire uphold
[29:19]
the request of its residents to
[29:21]
consider the important facts
[29:22]
surrounding the practice of
[29:24]
water fluoridation and vote
[29:25]
against it. There is no way of
[29:27]
dozing fluoridated tap water at
[29:29]
home. No way to find out who is
[29:31]
drinking it. Pregnant women,
[29:32]
infants, people on dialysis,
[29:34]
people with weakened these are
[29:35]
all warned not to drink it. As I
[29:37]
mentioned, 99% of the
[29:39]
temperature goes down the drain,
[29:40]
where a lot of it meets
[29:42]
engagements with the --
[29:46]
[inaudible]
[29:47]
a lot of water, you know 15% of
[29:49]
water, is wasted with leaks so
[29:52]
only 0.2% of water is drank,
[29:54]
more is weighted by Lee.
[44:39]
I know, I felt the pain. They
[44:41]
did it eventually, and that was
[44:42]
not a good exercise, because
[44:45]
Cartier, the contractor, went
[44:46]
back wrapped. It was much longer
[44:48]
than it should have been. Even
[44:49]
then, it wasn't that long. They
[44:50]
did it fairly well. And our
[44:53]
engineers and everybody is on it
[44:55]
right now. They are very much
[44:57]
concerned about the timeframe.
[44:58]
Everybody, Council, everyone is
[45:00]
on this. They know that this is
[45:02]
not something that is going to
[45:04]
be allowed to go wrong or wait.
[45:06]
Everyone is on it and we know
[45:09]
the precariousness of what is
[45:10]
going on, and we want to
[45:11]
minimize all kinds of pain for
[45:12]
sure.
[45:13]
>> Okay. I appreciate it.
[45:15]
Thanks, guys, for listening to
[45:16]
me. Have a good evening.
[45:17]
>> Okay.
[45:21]
>> Susan Weaver, Pointe-Claire.
[45:24]
First I will talk about the
[45:27]
Pointe-Claire journal. From
[45:30]
December 2021 until February
[45:32]
2022. Mr. Thomas, you take
[45:35]
advantage of funds allotted to
[45:37]
your office to take a -- out
[45:39]
full page ads in the journal. As
[45:40]
I have said before, it was
[45:42]
unnecessary because
[45:43]
Pointe-Claire reaches out to the
[45:44]
citizens in print and online.
[45:47]
Total cost of addeds, for the
[45:49]
7:14 -- 40 7:14. At the caucus
[45:54]
meetings, the notes I played
[45:55]
says --
[45:57]
>> You obtained notes from a
[45:59]
caucus meeting?
[46:01]
>> Excuse me!
[46:02]
>> Excuse me, Miss Weaver. It's
[46:04]
my call on this. You obtained
[46:06]
notes from a caucus meeting?
[46:08]
Whose notes?
[46:10]
>> Access to information. Thank
[46:12]
you very much! Access to
[46:14]
information!
[46:15]
>> It is not your position to
[46:16]
yell at me. It is not your
[46:18]
position to yell -- decide how
[46:20]
we will discourse right here.
[46:23]
This is a chamber where there is
[46:25]
decorum and we have mutually
[46:29]
respectful interchange. You do
[46:32]
not always adhere to those rules
[46:33]
and I would encourage you to do
[46:34]
so.
[46:36]
>> Okay. I have two questions.
[46:38]
>> Okay.
[46:39]
>> I have to bring gambles and
[46:41]
two questions, so will you let
[46:43]
me finish and then you can speak
[46:45]
afterwards? The
[46:46]
>> Depending how long the
[46:47]
preamble.
[46:48]
>> The quiet!
[46:49]
>> Miss Weaver, Miss Weaver,
[46:50]
Miss Weaver.
[46:53]
>> Excuse me, excuse me.
[46:54]
>> You are not allowed to tell
[46:55]
me to be quiet or dictate the
[46:57]
rules in this chamber. That is
[46:58]
not your right.
[46:59]
>> What's right do I have?
[47:01]
>> Do you want to be -- do you
[47:04]
want your right to ask the
[47:06]
question removed or behave with
[47:09]
decorum?
[47:10]
>> What are my rights as a
[47:12]
citizen?
[47:13]
>> I would like you to behave
[47:15]
with decorum.
[47:16]
>> Can I continue, if it's with
[47:17]
quorum.
[47:18]
>> Okay, I will ask afterwards,
[47:20]
after the question. At the March
[47:22]
29th caucus meeting, I went to
[47:26]
access the information and the
[47:27]
notes I obtained says the mayor
[47:30]
suggests spending $5,000 for
[47:32]
publications to the journal. It
[47:38]
was unanimously rejected by all
[47:39]
councillors. To be noted, all
[47:41]
eight councillors were present.
[47:45]
I July's council meeting,
[47:47]
Councillor Cowan read a
[47:48]
statement that during a prior
[47:50]
caucus meeting, you wanted to
[47:51]
give contribute to the journal
[47:53]
of $5,000. You had said yourself
[47:55]
that it was morally
[47:57]
reprehensible. You seem to be
[48:00]
fixated on repaying the
[48:01]
Pointe-Claire journal for
[48:02]
heavily promoting you last year
[48:05]
prior to the election. My guess
[48:06]
is that you cannot pay it back
[48:08]
yourself, because you would have
[48:10]
to submit it at elections --
[48:12]
expense. My question is, why
[48:15]
attribute? If the Pointe-Claire
[48:16]
journal more deserving than the
[48:17]
West Island Gazette or the
[48:18]
suburban?
[48:22]
>> Is that the question?
[48:23]
>> Yes.
[48:25]
>> First of all, calls of tender
[48:30]
dictate that you advertise with
[48:33]
the most widely distributed
[48:34]
newspaper. The most widely
[48:37]
distributed newspaper at that
[48:38]
timeframe was absolutely without
[48:40]
a doubt the Pointe-Claire
[48:41]
journal. It was the one that
[48:42]
reached most households and most
[48:44]
widely distributed. Can't so if
[48:47]
we are to tender in and, it is
[48:49]
specified, those are the rules,
[48:51]
that we have to advertise in the
[48:52]
most widely distributed. So the
[48:55]
Pointe-Claire journal, if we go
[48:56]
to calls for tender, was the
[48:57]
most widely distributed
[48:59]
newspaper in Pointe-Claire. It
[49:00]
was the only selection for the
[49:04]
advertising. The advertising,
[49:05]
the mayor's message by the way,
[49:07]
it's done by mayors and
[49:08]
municipalities across the
[49:09]
province. There's nothing wrong
[49:11]
with it, and unfortunately for
[49:15]
some odd reason, and it was
[49:16]
going to be paid for, the normal
[49:19]
-- it here to buy the no
[49:21]
newspapers and what was budgeted
[49:22]
for. It was nothing out of the
[49:23]
norm. There was no payoff or
[49:25]
anybody. It was my desire to
[49:27]
communicate legitimately and
[49:29]
with transparency to my citizens
[49:30]
in the most widely distributed
[49:33]
journal. Would you stop making
[49:35]
rude faces? I'm not doing that
[49:36]
to you, could you stop doing
[49:37]
that? It's really not becoming.
[49:40]
I would encourage you to just
[49:41]
please, a little decorum. Now
[49:46]
>> Can I ask a question?
[49:47]
>> No, Miss Weaver I'm still
[49:49]
talking. Thank you very much.
[49:53]
Now, the access to information
[49:55]
of caucus notes I find clearly
[49:59]
suspect. And I have real doubts
[50:01]
about that. And I have real
[50:04]
doubts that access to
[50:06]
information gave you notes from
[50:07]
caucus, someone's notes from
[50:10]
caucus. I don't even think that
[50:11]
is legally possible. So I am
[50:13]
highly suspect of your
[50:14]
credibility right now.
[50:15]
>> Oh really?
[50:17]
>> Yes I am.
[50:18]
>> Okay, well I have it all.
[50:19]
>> You can show that to
[50:21]
somebody, and that has to be
[50:22]
verified. And I would like to
[50:23]
see that. And I would like
[50:27]
Madame Thibault to see that as
[50:28]
well.
[50:29]
>> Well I got it from
[50:30]
Pointe-Claire.
[50:31]
>> You're going to have to be
[50:32]
forthcoming with those. Because
[50:33]
we would really, really, really
[50:35]
like to see them.
[50:39]
>> Mayor Thomas, you can request
[50:41]
for the notes from the caucus
[50:42]
meeting.
[50:43]
>> Okay.
[50:44]
>> So you are calling me --
[50:47]
>> I'm quite astonished you can
[50:49]
access.
[50:50]
>> You are calling me someone
[50:51]
who's not telling the truth?
[50:53]
>> No. I would like to see those
[50:54]
notes.
[50:55]
>> I think you have just accused
[50:56]
me of something as a citizen.
[50:58]
>> I would very much like to see
[51:00]
those notes.
[51:01]
>> Maybe you better read up on
[51:02]
the law, the bylaws.
[51:03]
>> I would love to see the note
[51:05]
of those caucus meetings.
[51:06]
>> I can't show them to you
[51:07]
because you won't contact me.
[51:10]
And you have blocked me from
[51:11]
everything.
[51:12]
>> This Weaver.
[51:13]
>> Anyway, we only have a
[51:14]
certain amount of time, I'm on
[51:15]
to my second question.
[51:16]
>> You aren't deciding to. If
[51:17]
you are not deciding that. You
[51:22]
are not deciding the rules in
[51:23]
this chamber. Okay?
[51:24]
>> No, I never do. I respect the
[51:26]
chamber.
[51:27]
>> Oh you often do. And you know
[51:28]
what, Miss Weaver? If you are
[51:29]
not deciding that tonight.
[51:30]
>> Do I get a second question?
[51:32]
>> You get a second question.
[51:33]
>> Okay. And I do respect the
[51:36]
chamber. The second one is
[51:39]
lawsuits. In the minutes of the
[51:42]
May 3rd council meeting, it is
[51:44]
written, from the 2021 surplus,
[51:49]
$500,000 was allotted to the
[51:51]
reserve fully commit the. I've
[51:54]
just heard that -- is now suing
[51:57]
our city for $400,000 plus
[52:00]
damages. This is one of how many
[52:04]
lawsuits? The $500,000 will not
[52:06]
go very far. Pointe-Claire
[52:09]
citizens will eventually need to
[52:11]
pay for the lawsuits, either by
[52:14]
a loss of services and programs,
[52:16]
or a substantial increase in
[52:17]
taxes. If so, this is absolutely
[52:22]
not fair to seniors like myself,
[52:25]
who are on fixed incomes and
[52:27]
would be forced to move out of
[52:28]
their homes and away from
[52:29]
Pointe-Claire. What is the total
[52:31]
cost of lawsuits to date, and
[52:34]
how will this affect the
[52:35]
citizens of Pointe-Claire?
[52:37]
>> Okay. Miss Weber, interim
[52:41]
control measures are a tool,
[52:43]
illegal tool, given by the
[52:45]
province of Québec for
[52:48]
municipalities to slow down
[52:49]
development, legitimately and
[52:51]
legally slow down development,
[52:53]
in their areas because they are
[52:54]
being developed quickly. The --
[52:58]
has realized this is an issue
[52:59]
across all municipalities and a
[53:01]
real problem in the province of
[53:02]
Québec. So they have developed
[53:05]
interim control measures to
[53:07]
protect cities from
[53:08]
overdevelopment. They are a
[53:09]
powerful legal tool, and most
[53:11]
developers know that. They are a
[53:12]
very powerful legal to. And when
[53:15]
you enacted in RCI, it's a given
[53:17]
the developers are going to sue
[53:19]
in fact. It happens in all of
[53:20]
them. What we have now is a
[53:26]
powerful legislation that is
[53:27]
given to us by the province to
[53:28]
protect ourselves, and we are
[53:29]
using it. We will then let the
[53:34]
courts decide and that the
[53:37]
outcomes resolve themselves. In
[53:42]
the past these measures have
[53:43]
been very effective. I'm hoping
[53:44]
that will be in Pointe-Claire.
[53:46]
It is a bit of a risk but not a
[53:48]
huge one I'm hoping. And I'm
[53:50]
hoping that seniors like
[53:52]
yourself get to live in a city
[53:53]
that will not be overwhelmed and
[53:56]
not become too expensive and
[53:58]
will allow you a quality of life
[54:00]
with green space and with
[54:02]
affordable housing that won't be
[54:03]
the case if we do not implement
[54:05]
this interim control measure. So
[54:07]
thank you for your question,
[54:09]
Miss Weaver.
[54:10]
>> How many lawsuits to date?
[54:11]
>> I just answered your
[54:13]
question.
[54:14]
>> You did not answer it. How
[54:15]
did you answer it? I asked how
[54:18]
many lawsuits to date.
[54:19]
>> You've had your two
[54:20]
questions. Thank, you Miss
[54:21]
Weaver.
[54:22]
>> You obviously do not know the
[54:23]
answer. You don't know what
[54:26]
you're doing.
[54:27]
>> Don't hurl insults, it's not
[54:28]
becoming. Yes ma'am?
[54:38]
>> Mayor Thomas, councillors,
[54:39]
how are you doing?
[54:40]
>> Good and you?
[54:41]
>> I hope everyone is doing
[54:42]
well. Good, thank you. I'm in
[54:46]
district seven. Just a quick
[54:49]
comment. I do enjoy reading the
[54:52]
Pointe-Claire paper. It is
[54:54]
something I look forward to. In
[54:56]
fact, I think a lot of seniors
[54:58]
don't have access to computers
[55:02]
or Wi-Fi or emails, or can have
[55:04]
a look at the websites, so I
[55:06]
think it's a good newspaper to
[55:10]
keep receiving, and I keep
[55:11]
reading it whenever I get it. My
[55:13]
question today. What is for the
[55:20]
best interest of Pointe-Claire
[55:21]
residents? Could councillors not
[55:24]
abide by their duty to all?
[55:27]
Citizens that voted for them?
[55:30]
And not the relish state
[55:31]
developers -- the real estate
[55:34]
developers. The reason I'm
[55:35]
asking, our infrastructure is
[55:37]
not adequate. Our streets are
[55:40]
not adequate for extra traffic.
[55:42]
From my conversations, most
[55:44]
Pointe-Claire residents don't
[55:45]
want extra construction.
[55:47]
High-rise buildings. Condos.
[55:49]
Apartments. And they specially
[55:51]
don't want extra traffic around
[55:52]
I were already busy streets.
[55:56]
With -- wood new construction
[55:58]
allow one car per unit? People
[56:00]
are not coming here mainly for
[56:03]
the REM or public transport. In
[56:04]
fact, this is enticing people to
[56:05]
come with their cars. All of
[56:09]
that is against the Environment.
[56:13]
I'm skipping to another subject.
[56:17]
Mr. Brent Cowan of district
[56:18]
eight. In the article in the
[56:22]
suburban on July 27, showing a
[56:29]
smile, it's the hip the humanly
[56:35]
against Sotramont and Cadillac
[56:36]
Fairview going ahead and
[56:37]
building more units. I won't
[56:39]
repeat some of the language. It
[56:48]
sounds almost like incriminating
[56:49]
our city. On the other hand, Mr.
[56:52]
Cowan, in the newspaper the
[56:56]
Pointe-Claire catalogue, it's
[57:02]
quoted you want to help bring
[57:04]
municipal government closer to
[57:05]
the community and to encourage
[57:06]
the community deeper involvement
[57:07]
in their own municipal
[57:10]
government. Just a reminder,
[57:15]
that the shelling meeting for
[57:17]
the consultation, along with
[57:20]
Eric district seven, and Tara
[57:22]
district for, the majority of
[57:23]
the people attended there were
[57:25]
against all these constant
[57:26]
though -- condo construction. To
[57:29]
my question to you is, if there
[57:31]
would be a high-rise development
[57:35]
building on your street next to
[57:36]
it, how would you feel?
[57:41]
>> On my street where I live,
[57:43]
there have been one, two, three
[57:48]
demolitions already and
[57:50]
reconstructions. There is
[57:54]
another three requests. One has
[57:57]
been approved and another to
[57:58]
requests. So there's a lot going
[57:59]
on on my street as well. This is
[58:03]
the nature of of life right now
[58:07]
in Pointe-Claire. We mitigate
[58:09]
these kinds of changes to the
[58:10]
best of our ability. We can't
[58:12]
stop time.
[58:14]
>> High rise buildings with over
[58:15]
200 units each?
[58:18]
>> The high-rise buildings are
[58:19]
in my district. I voted to
[58:24]
approve the high-rise on
[58:25]
Belmont. I think it's within its
[58:29]
rights. That building. And I
[58:32]
think in the end it will be for
[58:33]
the neighbourhood. I've also
[58:35]
voted against the plus Frontenac
[58:37]
development because it was a
[58:39]
conditional use, and I thought
[58:40]
that area should be reserved, as
[58:42]
it is the zoning, for
[58:43]
commercial. That's why I voted
[58:46]
against that. 700 units that
[58:50]
went there. So there is no
[58:52]
blanket options to be against
[58:54]
everything. Against everything
[58:56]
that is new and coming. There is
[58:58]
no blanket option to be against
[59:01]
people who are different for
[59:02]
moving in, they will, and we
[59:04]
have to be welcoming to people.
[59:07]
But local people around the
[59:10]
Coptic Church, that want to put
[59:14]
a community center there, not
[59:16]
all of them because the
[59:17]
referendum did not pass, but
[59:18]
there was a vocal minority that
[59:22]
opposed them. It's
[59:26]
understandable. People are
[59:27]
nervous about change. But
[59:29]
changes coming, and we can't
[59:31]
stop it.
[59:32]
>> Thank you for that. I've got
[59:34]
some statistic for you. My
[59:37]
answer to development.
[1:04:10]
Bonsoir tout le, monde je
[1:04:12]
m'appelle Pierre L'Écuyer,
[1:04:13]
résident de Pointe-Claire dans
[1:04:14]
le district numéro 7 avec
[1:04:15]
monsieur
[1:04:16]
(---)
[1:04:17]
. Comme mentionnait Monsieur le
[1:04:18]
Maire, j'aimerais remercier
[1:04:21]
monsieur Weemaes comme on l'a
[1:04:22]
mentionné. Je sais que vous avez
[1:04:26]
beaucoup de travail pour
[1:04:27]
Pointe-Claire. Vous avez
[1:04:29]
toujours bien répondu aux
[1:04:31]
questions. Je vous souhaite
[1:04:32]
bonne chance dans ce prochain
[1:04:33]
chapitre de votre vie. Merci
[1:04:34]
encore.
[1:09:20]
Ma deuxième question, je vais la
[1:09:22]
dire en français à plusieurs
[1:09:24]
niveaux politiques. Les
[1:09:25]
vérifications judiciaires, les
[1:09:26]
conflits d'intérêts financiers
[1:09:28]
qu'on appelle
[1:09:29]
(intervention en anglais)
[1:09:30]
sont faits sur les gens du
[1:09:32]
domaine public avant de prendre
[1:09:33]
le poste. On fait la même chose
[1:09:34]
ici à Pointe-Claire pour
[1:09:37]
certains entraîneurs sportifs au
[1:09:38]
sujet du dossier criminel, par
[1:09:39]
exemple. Est-ce que ce processus
[1:09:43]
est une possibilité dans le
[1:09:44]
futur pour le conseil municipal
[1:09:46]
de Pointe-Claire? Merci.
[1:11:14]
- Et pour la deuxième question.
[1:11:16]
- Oui, oui.
[1:11:26]
- À plusieurs niveaux
[1:11:29]
politiques, des vérifications
[1:11:30]
judiciaires ou des conflits
[1:11:32]
d'intérêts financiers qu'on
[1:11:33]
appelle vikings en anglais sont
[1:11:35]
faites sur des gens dans le
[1:11:36]
domaine public avant de prendre
[1:11:38]
le poste. On fait la même chose
[1:11:40]
ici à Pointe-Claire pour des
[1:11:42]
entraîneurs sportifs, par
[1:11:43]
exemple, si je veux devenir
[1:11:45]
entraîneur pour un groupe de
[1:11:46]
soccer, il fera une petite
[1:11:48]
recherche sur moi pour voir si
[1:11:49]
j'ai un dossier criminel, par
[1:11:50]
exemple. Est-ce que c'est un
[1:11:52]
processus qui serait possible
[1:11:53]
dans le futur considéré pour le
[1:11:55]
conseil municipal de
[1:11:56]
Pointe-Claire?
[1:12:03]
- Effectivement, une question
[1:12:05]
administrative, ce sont
[1:12:06]
d'ailleurs des conditions, aucun
[1:12:08]
qu'on dit dans un candidat doit
[1:12:10]
rencontrer pour le conseil
[1:12:12]
municipal, ça relève des lois
[1:12:14]
provinciales. Le conseil
[1:12:15]
municipal n'a aucun pouvoir pour
[1:12:16]
juger de quoi que ce soit, c'est
[1:12:17]
la loi provinciale qui décide
[1:12:18]
de. Ça
[1:12:19]
- D'accord, je vous remercie,
[1:12:20]
bonne soirée.
[1:14:47]
One will never understand the
[1:14:48]
damage you did someone until the
[1:14:50]
same thing is done to you.
[1:14:54]
Please keep in mind that at the
[1:14:58]
very first house that you see on
[1:15:00]
the back of May would when you
[1:15:02]
are on Hymus. Keep that in mind.
[1:15:05]
For the last four years, myself
[1:15:09]
and my neighbours have had to
[1:15:12]
endure multiple construction and
[1:15:14]
development in this
[1:15:15]
neighbourhood just to name a
[1:15:17]
few. Hi miss --
[1:15:33]
curbs on Maywood and the list
[1:15:37]
goes on. The dust, the noise,
[1:15:39]
the pollution, the serious
[1:15:40]
influx of rodents that it has
[1:15:43]
brought to us. The wildlife. The
[1:15:46]
insects that destroy our crops.
[1:15:50]
These are things we have to
[1:15:54]
consider, not just building. You
[1:15:55]
want to catch all the mice
[1:15:57]
around my yard? Windows must be
[1:16:00]
kept closed at all times. Air
[1:16:01]
conditioning has to be on at all
[1:16:03]
times. The dust is incredible.
[1:16:06]
The allergies are incredible.
[1:16:07]
Some people are really sick. Is
[1:16:11]
the City reimbursing us for all
[1:16:13]
the treatments we are getting?
[1:16:15]
Absolutely not. Is anyone coming
[1:16:18]
to wash windows and homes?
[1:16:20]
Tables and furniture when we go
[1:16:21]
outside we have to wash in order
[1:16:23]
to sit down? For five years we
[1:16:26]
have injured that. That is why I
[1:16:28]
was upset. You have to think of
[1:16:32]
what is being done. The city
[1:16:35]
members, when I come to talk to
[1:16:36]
them, some of the departments
[1:16:38]
know me by first name for
[1:16:41]
goodness sake. They are very
[1:16:42]
kind. They offer whatever help
[1:16:44]
they could give me. They assist
[1:16:47]
us. Why can't the Council do
[1:16:51]
that before construction? Why
[1:16:52]
can't we be consulted? I have
[1:16:56]
asked Mr. Weemaes why can't
[1:16:59]
citizens be informed when a
[1:17:00]
construction is going to be
[1:17:02]
allowed a permit? He said,
[1:17:05]
province laws, province bylaws.
[1:17:07]
There is no obligation on our
[1:17:10]
part. Would it not be nice?
[1:17:13]
Would not be courteous? Would it
[1:17:15]
not be what should be expected?
[1:17:18]
That we will be imposed all of
[1:17:20]
this construction and there's
[1:17:21]
nothing we can say about it.
[1:17:23]
It's like, shut up and put up.
[1:17:25]
That's not fair. Again, I ask,
[1:17:31]
can the councillors in each
[1:17:32]
region, when something is being
[1:17:34]
built, not approach the citizens
[1:17:36]
and inform us? It's not going to
[1:17:39]
take a long time. Can we change
[1:17:41]
the plans? Probably not. But at
[1:17:44]
least we would feel included in
[1:17:45]
all of this and not just
[1:17:49]
imposed. I have been a teacher
[1:17:51]
for 45 years. I'm telling you,
[1:17:54]
if I imposed everything on my
[1:17:56]
students, you know what I get
[1:17:58]
out of the? Nothing. If I
[1:18:01]
include them in what I want from
[1:18:03]
them, you know what I get? I get
[1:18:06]
provincial champions. I get
[1:18:07]
national champions. I get
[1:18:09]
Olympic champions. That's what
[1:18:10]
we all want. I want the council,
[1:18:13]
I want to work with the mayor to
[1:18:15]
work with us, and not make us
[1:18:17]
feel like fools all the time.
[1:18:19]
I'm tired of fighting. All I do
[1:18:21]
is fight. To have tranquillity.
[1:18:25]
For years I retired, all I do is
[1:18:27]
spend my time writing for five
[1:18:29]
pages of notes. So I can have a
[1:18:31]
decent life. I have one
[1:18:39]
neighbour we. We have yet wanted
[1:18:42]
to give me 500 neighbours. Thank
[1:18:44]
God the councillors that work
[1:18:46]
for us and with us on the
[1:18:48]
demolition committee were smart
[1:18:49]
enough to realize that that
[1:18:51]
should not happen. Would you
[1:18:54]
like to be in that position?
[1:18:56]
This is why. That's why I had a
[1:18:59]
tone. I'm asking you again, can
[1:19:04]
we all work together? Can we be
[1:19:06]
informed before construction is
[1:19:09]
done. Not the day we see trucks
[1:19:12]
roll in, that we see bulldozers
[1:19:16]
role in, before. Let's be smart
[1:19:19]
about this.
[1:19:24]
>> We can, the answer is, that
[1:19:27]
we probably should, and we just
[1:19:30]
might. It is a challenge. And
[1:19:33]
you are quite right, I know
[1:19:35]
where you live and it is
[1:19:39]
certainly -- has certainly been
[1:19:41]
under deluge for quite awhile. I
[1:19:42]
feel for you. I have experienced
[1:19:45]
someday loose, but not to the
[1:19:46]
extent you have. It's an
[1:19:47]
unfortunate part of the city for
[1:19:49]
sure, but there may be other
[1:19:51]
unfortunate parts of the city in
[1:19:52]
the future unfortunately. And we
[1:19:54]
do have to minimize the pain.
[1:19:57]
And in my opinion, yes
[1:20:01]
densification is a necessity,
[1:20:02]
and we are pro creating and
[1:20:04]
growing as a species, but we've
[1:20:06]
got to find a way to do it that
[1:20:08]
is not disrupting people as
[1:20:09]
much. And I think we can
[1:20:10]
overtime. I think it is a
[1:20:13]
process. I've always thought
[1:20:14]
that in Québec we were, a
[1:20:16]
Montréal region, we've actually
[1:20:17]
been spared a little. We have
[1:20:19]
time to reflect and actually do
[1:20:21]
it better. If you think about --
[1:20:25]
of Toronto or Mississauga and
[1:20:26]
other places, they were just
[1:20:29]
completely overwhelmed whereas
[1:20:30]
we can see what happened in
[1:20:32]
Vancouver. We can see the
[1:20:33]
monster house issue in
[1:20:34]
Vancouver. We can see what has
[1:20:36]
happened in other parts, heck,
[1:20:38]
in Griffintown. We can see what
[1:20:39]
we don't want. And I would
[1:20:42]
encourage all of us, citizens
[1:20:44]
and Council, to make sure we
[1:20:45]
don't get what we don't want.
[1:20:46]
And that we get what we do want.
[1:20:48]
And we have some, hopefully in
[1:20:49]
the future, we will have some
[1:20:50]
say over that. That's the point
[1:20:53]
of the exercise and hopefully we
[1:20:54]
can pull it off. I can't promise
[1:20:56]
this, but hopefully we can pull
[1:20:58]
it off. Councillor Stork?
[1:21:06]
>> Thanks for letting me talk,
[1:21:07]
but I will refer to another
[1:21:08]
point.
[1:21:09]
>> That's hardly grateful. Holy
[1:21:11]
smokes. Let's go, Councillor
[1:21:14]
Stork.
[1:21:18]
>> To speak to what you are
[1:21:20]
saying, I think one thing that
[1:21:21]
is really being overlooked here,
[1:21:24]
I'm not trying to put Mr.
[1:21:26]
Weemaes on the spot, but all
[1:21:27]
residential developments to get
[1:21:28]
notice. It's part of the
[1:21:31]
demolition post, it's on the
[1:21:32]
websites and such, but I think
[1:21:34]
you are probably referring to
[1:21:35]
the gas station how you were
[1:21:37]
informed. For some reason, I
[1:21:39]
don't know why the provincial
[1:21:40]
arrangement, commercial projects
[1:21:43]
do not fundamentally go under
[1:21:45]
the same pathway. As residential
[1:21:50]
projects.
[1:21:51]
>> Okay.
[1:21:52]
>> So maybe something can be
[1:21:53]
done, like I did not know when
[1:21:55]
that project was starting either
[1:21:56]
until it started. So I think
[1:21:58]
maybe there should be a broader
[1:21:59]
scope to open up that element
[1:22:02]
saying, for commercial projects,
[1:22:03]
these are the start dates. Maybe
[1:22:05]
they should be on our website.
[1:22:06]
I'm not sure what can or can't
[1:22:07]
be done legally in that respect,
[1:22:08]
but I think something of that
[1:22:11]
nature, I'm not trying to put
[1:22:12]
you on the spot again, Mister
[1:22:15]
Weemaes, but is there a
[1:22:16]
reasoning why a lot of
[1:22:17]
commercial industrial projects
[1:22:19]
are not discussed in the same
[1:22:20]
format? One last little thing,
[1:22:21]
in reference to the dust you
[1:22:23]
mentioned, that is part of the
[1:22:25]
Municipal Works permit. So I
[1:22:26]
would suggest an email in
[1:22:31]
reference of that, to the Mayor
[1:22:32]
or both of us, and ask that to
[1:22:33]
be implemented as part of a --
[1:22:36]
Works agreement because it can
[1:22:37]
be included in terms of dust
[1:22:38]
mitigation and ailments and
[1:22:40]
such. That that can happen. Like
[1:22:42]
when the especially thing
[1:22:43]
happened at Walton, we changed
[1:22:45]
the laws to address the
[1:22:46]
especially stink. Now we have
[1:22:48]
inspectors going prior. We do
[1:22:50]
have to adopt. We cannot foresee
[1:22:52]
everything, but something of
[1:22:53]
that nature I agree with you,
[1:22:54]
there should be testament again
[1:22:55]
issues that is part of the
[1:22:57]
Municipal Works agreement. Where
[1:22:58]
the actual contractor, -- the
[1:23:00]
developer, has to combine
[1:23:03]
cleaner windows. We have to
[1:23:04]
start that process. I will ask
[1:23:06]
myself. Send myself an email,
[1:23:08]
the mayor in email, and that
[1:23:09]
should be integrated in our
[1:23:11]
procedures.
[1:23:12]
>> Because I have asked the
[1:23:16]
developers if they would help
[1:23:17]
and they say it's not their
[1:23:18]
problem.
[1:23:20]
>> We sort of expect that
[1:23:21]
answer. I don't think they go
[1:23:23]
out of their way to help us per
[1:23:24]
se, but it's our responsibility
[1:23:26]
to do what we need to do and
[1:23:28]
that is what we mandated is part
[1:23:29]
of the Municipal Works
[1:23:31]
agreement, to be included. I
[1:23:33]
think that's a great suggestion.
[1:23:36]
To Mr. Weemaes Point, I don't
[1:23:37]
know if there's an answer to
[1:23:38]
that.
[1:23:40]
>> The consulting process for
[1:23:42]
bylaws the same for commercial
[1:23:43]
and residential. The moment a
[1:23:45]
city councillor wants the by law
[1:23:48]
to implement rules or the way
[1:23:51]
permits are allowed or something
[1:23:52]
like that, the consulting
[1:23:55]
process there. But once the
[1:23:56]
bylaw is adopted and a packable,
[1:23:58]
when someone comes in to request
[1:23:59]
a permit, there is no consulting
[1:24:03]
public there. The requiring has
[1:24:07]
to comply with the disposition
[1:24:08]
in the bylaw. He complies if he
[1:24:11]
has his permit. The law is built
[1:24:13]
like that. There is no process
[1:24:15]
where the neighbours can be
[1:24:17]
consulted and influence the
[1:24:19]
process and see. That is the way
[1:24:23]
the laws are set. Would it be
[1:24:25]
could process? Probably, the
[1:24:27]
laws are not like that at this
[1:24:28]
moment. That is the problem.
[1:24:29]
>> Mr. Weemaes, you're talking
[1:24:31]
about provincial bylaws like you
[1:24:32]
said to me in your letter.
[1:24:34]
>> We are framed by provincial
[1:24:35]
bylaws. We have no choice. The
[1:24:37]
city is framed all around by
[1:24:39]
provincial bylaws. The law says
[1:24:42]
you can't do that. It's not --
[1:24:44]
>> Laws can be changed.
[1:24:49]
>> That's the provincial law.
[1:24:51]
>> By citizens and who you vote
[1:24:55]
for. The provincial level as
[1:24:56]
well as municipal. It is
[1:25:00]
decided, a lot of this stuff is
[1:25:01]
decided at the provincial level.
[1:25:02]
And it does not hurt to pay
[1:25:04]
attention at that level as well
[1:25:07]
regarding municipalities.
[1:25:09]
Municipalities do, in many ways,
[1:25:10]
have their hands tied. Not
[1:25:12]
always, you are right, not
[1:25:13]
always. That does not exempt us,
[1:25:16]
but there are certain laws that
[1:25:18]
are not unsavory, that --
[1:25:22]
absolutely.
[1:25:23]
>> Absolutely. If I might just
[1:25:25]
ask something about the journal
[1:25:26]
of Pointe-Claire. People call it
[1:25:28]
a rag, call it everything. It's
[1:25:30]
not a rag. It served me very
[1:25:33]
well personally and my team when
[1:25:36]
we fought against Brivia. David
[1:25:38]
is not afraid of anyone. He's
[1:25:42]
not bought by anyone. He says
[1:25:44]
what we say, and he prints what
[1:25:47]
we say. And if people are
[1:25:50]
offended by it, so be it. For
[1:25:52]
once, we have media that is not
[1:25:56]
biased. At least it wasn't for
[1:26:01]
me.
[1:26:03]
>> There's a huge number of
[1:26:04]
Pointe-Claire citizens that
[1:26:05]
concur, and I would love to do a
[1:26:06]
survey on that one. Because I
[1:26:08]
have a sneaking suspicion, and
[1:26:12]
myself included, and when I was
[1:26:14]
in Pointe-Claire plaza, the
[1:26:15]
wrecks of Pointe-Claire journals
[1:26:17]
disappeared at a more rapid rate
[1:26:19]
than any other newspaper I have
[1:26:20]
seen in Pointe-Claire. So allow
[1:26:21]
me to concur.
[1:26:22]
>> I will conclude on saying
[1:26:24]
that the land at the station is
[1:26:26]
still two feet higher than
[1:26:29]
ground level previously, and I
[1:26:31]
was told it's because of the
[1:26:33]
drainage which I can
[1:26:34]
acknowledge. I'm a smart woman,
[1:26:35]
I can understand all that, but
[1:26:37]
it does not stop my problem.
[1:26:40]
Now, the headlights will be
[1:26:41]
right over my fence into my
[1:26:42]
house. What can the City do to
[1:26:48]
compensate me? I need a new
[1:26:49]
fence. As the city ready to
[1:26:53]
build me a new fence?
[1:26:55]
>> That's a good question. We
[1:26:57]
will certainly find out. We will
[1:26:59]
endeavour and look at the
[1:27:00]
situation and see if we can.
[1:27:01]
>> Thank you.
[1:27:06]
>> 15 minutes left, Mister
[1:27:08]
Mayor.
[1:27:09]
>> 15?. Okay. Are there more
[1:27:12]
downstairs that want to come up?
[1:27:15]
Are there any others? Are there
[1:27:16]
any outside?
[1:27:24]
>> Good evening. My name is
[1:27:26]
Emily Schell horn, I'm here with
[1:27:27]
my neighbour. We are both
[1:27:31]
residents of Glenn Avenue. And
[1:27:37]
in Miss Homan's District. We are
[1:27:40]
here to ask the city of
[1:27:41]
Pointe-Claire to please
[1:27:43]
prioritize the urgent
[1:27:45]
installation of a sidewalk on
[1:27:47]
Belmont avenue between cool
[1:27:48]
breeze and saddle brook. We are
[1:27:53]
an active and diverse community,
[1:27:56]
including elderly citizens and
[1:27:57]
several very young children, and
[1:28:00]
road safety must be urgently
[1:28:02]
improved. This is the only part
[1:28:03]
of Belmont, which is a 2.3
[1:28:06]
kilometer street, without a
[1:28:07]
sidewalk. It's an S curb
[1:28:10]
stretch. It is narrow and has
[1:28:13]
several blind spots and puts
[1:28:15]
both pedestrians and drivers at
[1:28:17]
risk. According to the Canadian
[1:28:22]
council of motor transport
[1:28:24]
administrators, the presence of
[1:28:26]
a sidewalk reduces collate --
[1:28:28]
risks of collision by 88%. We
[1:28:30]
are asking that the installation
[1:28:31]
of the sidewalk on this stretch
[1:28:34]
be prioritized ahead of the
[1:28:36]
regular scheduled repaving of
[1:28:39]
Belmont. We met in June with
[1:28:42]
Miss Homan and Mr. Tonga, the
[1:28:45]
director of Public Security, as
[1:28:46]
we were approximately 30
[1:28:48]
residents of the Glenn land
[1:28:51]
Belmont town house community.
[1:28:53]
And we discussed various options
[1:28:58]
and it was determined that
[1:28:59]
temporary measures are neither
[1:29:01]
sufficient nor safe, so we were
[1:29:05]
informed a sidewalk has been
[1:29:06]
approved by traffic. It is
[1:29:08]
currently in engineering
[1:29:09]
committee. But it's not foreseen
[1:29:12]
for a minimum of 3 to 5 years.
[1:29:16]
So we are asking for the
[1:29:18]
prioritization of that. Myself
[1:29:20]
on a personal level, I have two
[1:29:23]
toddlers, so there's my
[1:29:24]
neighbour. I use that stretch
[1:29:26]
daily sometimes multiple times.
[1:29:28]
It is the only exit from our
[1:29:30]
street, because Glenn Lin is a
[1:29:32]
cul-de-sac, so I have no choice
[1:29:35]
but to use that stretch and I
[1:29:38]
have multiple close -- close
[1:29:39]
calls a week where a driver does
[1:29:41]
not see us because I'm hugging
[1:29:43]
the curve because we are already
[1:29:45]
afraid. When a driver does not
[1:29:49]
see us because of the blind
[1:29:50]
spots, and in the winter it's
[1:29:51]
even worse with the accumulation
[1:29:53]
of snow. We have elderly
[1:29:54]
neighbours that have told us
[1:29:55]
they have been heckled at when
[1:29:56]
they are walking to their
[1:29:58]
mailbox uncle breeze, they have
[1:29:59]
no choice but to go on that
[1:30:00]
stretch, I called it by drivers
[1:30:01]
to get off the road.
[1:33:48]
Bonsoir.
[1:33:52]
- J'espère que ça va être
[1:33:54]
correct ce soir que je fasse ma
[1:33:56]
présentation en anglais? Merci
[1:33:57]
beaucoup.
[1:34:57]
- Madame Thibault.
[1:44:14]
Okay, let's go.
[1:44:17]
>> Good evening. My name is --
[1:44:21]
and I live in Maywood, district
[1:44:22]
7. I am here and I'm listening
[1:44:27]
to everybody who's complaining,
[1:44:29]
and so many negative complaints,
[1:44:31]
and some positive complaints.
[1:44:35]
Somewhat I wish really for
[1:44:37]
everybody, just to be respectful
[1:44:40]
and try to work with you as a
[1:44:43]
new mayor, with a new vision,
[1:44:46]
for the environment, for
[1:44:52]
transparency, for the plan which
[1:44:54]
you Rotrand are running on. My
[1:44:59]
value really is when you see
[1:45:01]
something wrong, or something
[1:45:03]
dangerous, you have three
[1:45:04]
options to do. Physically you
[1:45:11]
can help to solve it. The second
[1:45:15]
option is you can talk and try
[1:45:18]
to help solve the problem. The
[1:45:20]
third one, if you are not able
[1:45:21]
to do those two, you pray for
[1:45:24]
those people to do the right
[1:45:25]
thing. So that's why I'm here
[1:45:32]
for the future of young
[1:45:37]
families, and the future what
[1:45:39]
kids, your grandkids, and your
[1:45:42]
kids what is coming. What you
[1:45:48]
are doing, just try to build
[1:45:50]
high-rise buildings and condo,
[1:45:53]
that is not, you need green
[1:45:55]
house, affordable single housing
[1:45:59]
for the young family and future
[1:46:02]
generation. Are you working in
[1:46:05]
that, or just high rise building
[1:46:09]
and condo? I want to ask all the
[1:46:14]
City Councillors for that.
[1:46:16]
>> Just to expedite, because we
[1:46:18]
don't have time for everyone to
[1:46:19]
go through, but we are in the
[1:46:22]
middle of a very positive
[1:46:24]
process where we are we
[1:46:27]
evaluating how our urban plan
[1:46:28]
going forward and we've had a
[1:46:30]
couple of positive meetings and
[1:46:32]
those are concerns that we are
[1:46:35]
taking into consideration.
[1:46:48]
>> That is what they write in
[1:46:50]
the newspaper.
[1:46:51]
>> What did I write, sir?
[1:46:55]
>> Not you, I said you support
[1:46:58]
each other for high rise
[1:47:00]
building. And you are always
[1:47:02]
working together.
[1:47:03]
>> Councillor Stork, can we let
[1:47:04]
him finish and then respond?
[1:47:06]
>> Yeah, because the three of
[1:47:11]
you, you and him, and Tara, you
[1:47:15]
are in the chalet and the
[1:47:20]
majority of people did not want
[1:47:23]
any high rise building or condo.
[1:47:25]
And that is what you support in
[1:47:28]
the newspaper. He wants to go
[1:47:33]
ahead with Fairview Cadillac, or
[1:47:36]
Cadillac Fairview, and so that
[1:47:38]
is what I'm trying to say. Has a
[1:47:41]
new mayor, but the old
[1:47:44]
Councillor, the previous Mayor,
[1:47:46]
I see always was in line with
[1:47:50]
the -- now you are not helping.
[1:47:55]
So what do you do to help?
[1:47:57]
>> With all due respect, sir.
[1:47:59]
That remains to be seen. We are
[1:48:01]
doing and RCI. We will see with
[1:48:02]
the end result will be.
[1:48:03]
Hopefully it won't. I mean, you
[1:48:05]
know my vision. Hopefully it
[1:48:06]
won't be high-rise buildings.
[1:48:09]
It's when I ran against. I
[1:48:11]
believe won't be. But we will
[1:48:13]
see, we are in a process where
[1:48:16]
we are, as a Council, working on
[1:48:19]
the issue. So we have to see
[1:48:22]
where we get before we get too
[1:48:23]
angry at people. We have to see
[1:48:26]
what the result will be. We
[1:48:28]
cannot preclude or think the
[1:48:29]
result will be something until
[1:48:30]
we go through the process. So
[1:48:34]
maybe, I hear what you are
[1:48:36]
saying, I commiserate. I mean,
[1:48:38]
I'm an opponent of intensifying
[1:48:41]
with duplexes, triplexes, semi
[1:48:44]
detached town houses. Not
[1:48:46]
height, I agree with you, we
[1:48:48]
have over done it in our city.
[1:48:50]
>> It is the right thing, sir.
[1:48:51]
>> I agree, but give us a chance
[1:48:53]
and we may get there. Who knows?
[1:48:55]
>> Okay, so what can we help for
[1:48:57]
those city councillors to
[1:48:59]
convince them?
[1:49:00]
>> Is this in order, please??
[1:49:04]
Can I have a comment from legal
[1:49:05]
to corporate -- departments,
[1:49:06]
please?
[1:49:09]
>> Councillor Stork, you're not
[1:49:10]
accused of everything.
[1:49:11]
>> I'm not going to sit here.
[1:49:14]
>> He's a citizen asking a
[1:49:17]
question.
[1:49:18]
[inaudible]
[1:49:19]
>> Sir, with all due respect, we
[1:49:21]
have touched fairly and evenly.
[1:49:23]
>> I'm saying the true.
[1:49:25]
>> Let's just leave it at that.
[1:49:26]
We've done very well, let's just
[1:49:28]
leave it at that. I have
[1:49:31]
responded that going forward we
[1:49:32]
don't know what the outcome will
[1:49:33]
be, so we cannot predict it, so
[1:49:35]
let's see what the result will
[1:49:37]
be. Let's see where we end up.
[1:49:40]
We have been in some positive
[1:49:42]
meetings, and who knows what the
[1:49:43]
end result will be? We cannot
[1:49:46]
forecast gloom and doom. It
[1:49:47]
might be good. We don't know
[1:49:48]
that.
[1:49:49]
>> Thank you for always writing
[1:49:50]
in the newspaper, and we
[1:49:52]
appreciate it.
[1:49:53]
>> Thank you very much.
[1:49:54]
>> I know some people they don't
[1:49:55]
like it, but they don't like the
[1:49:56]
truth. What we like to hear and
[1:49:58]
see everybody what you are
[1:49:59]
writing. And now the third
[1:50:01]
option.
[1:50:02]
>> I'm not writing
[1:50:04]
unfortunately. I'm not allowed.
[1:50:05]
Could I pass on to the next one?
[1:50:08]
>> The last option for me, I
[1:50:10]
have to pray for all of you,
[1:50:13]
wish you well, and to do the
[1:50:14]
right thing for the next
[1:50:16]
generation.
[1:50:17]
>> Thank. You
[1:50:18]
>> Know that less you, all of
[1:50:19]
you, and to work together.
[1:50:20]
>> Thank. You
[1:50:21]
>> Thank you.
[1:50:24]
>> Thank you, Eric.
[1:50:28]
>>
[1:50:29]
- Bonjour, Caroline bonjour,
[1:50:31]
district un. Good evening,
[1:50:33]
councillors. I spoke at the last
[1:50:35]
council meeting to outline the
[1:50:38]
reasons why the Council should
[1:50:43]
keep 275 and 325 Hymus in the
[1:50:44]
ICB, unfortunately I was not
[1:50:46]
successful. I'm extremely
[1:50:49]
disappointed that the motion
[1:50:50]
passed, not only because Hymus
[1:50:52]
west is becoming our very own
[1:50:55]
Griffintown, and a permanent
[1:50:56]
scar on our city, and will
[1:50:58]
likely become an example for
[1:50:59]
other suburbs on how not to
[1:51:01]
develop. But also because the
[1:51:03]
majority of you campaigned and
[1:51:05]
were vocal against excess
[1:51:08]
development and densification.
[1:51:09]
You also accused the last
[1:51:11]
administration of approving
[1:51:13]
developments without vision when
[1:51:14]
speaking of the blast Frontenac
[1:51:16]
development, a development which
[1:51:18]
some of you voted against. You
[1:51:20]
were elected and won your seats
[1:51:21]
on that platform, and the voters
[1:51:23]
are counting on you to act on
[1:51:25]
your commitment and to allow
[1:51:27]
your constituents to be
[1:51:30]
consulted on the vision before
[1:51:31]
any more developments are
[1:51:32]
approved to be removed from the
[1:51:35]
icy be. I am very puzzled by the
[1:51:37]
reversal of the position of
[1:51:38]
those councillors who ran on
[1:51:40]
your platform of pausing runway
[1:51:42]
development and allowing
[1:51:43]
citizens to be consulted, get
[1:51:45]
voted in favour of removing 275
[1:51:49]
and 325 Hymus. I'm even more
[1:51:52]
shocked from the motion from
[1:51:54]
Councillor Cowan to melt the
[1:51:55]
motion and also exclude
[1:51:56]
Greenwich and the Catholic
[1:52:00]
Fairview projects from the ICB.
[1:52:02]
Councillor Cowan, two months
[1:52:03]
before the election you ranted
[1:52:05]
against increasing densification
[1:52:07]
of Pointe-Claire following the
[1:52:11]
approval of the class Frontenac
[1:52:12]
project. I think someone already
[1:52:14]
quoted you, when the council was
[1:52:16]
elected, our population was just
[1:52:18]
over 32,000. The Cadillac
[1:52:19]
Fairview development concept
[1:52:21]
alone calls for an additional
[1:52:23]
5000 department units. Where are
[1:52:25]
we headed? And eventual
[1:52:27]
population of 40, 50, 60,000?
[1:52:29]
This city is without vision. And
[1:52:30]
quote. Yet at the last meeting,
[1:52:33]
you wanted to remove the
[1:52:34]
Cadillac Fairview and Greenwich
[1:52:37]
projects from the ICB. Two
[1:52:39]
monstrous projects that would
[1:52:40]
greatly increase the density and
[1:52:42]
population of Pointe-Claire. At
[1:52:44]
24 storeys, the Cadillac
[1:52:45]
Fairview project is the same
[1:52:46]
height as the sunlight building
[1:52:48]
downtown. I'm not sure if any of
[1:52:50]
you have seen that building, but
[1:52:51]
it's big even by Downtown
[1:52:53]
standards. If that were to be
[1:52:56]
built and the Fairview parking
[1:52:57]
lot, it would probably be seen
[1:52:59]
as far away as Hudson, and
[1:53:00]
completely out of place. And a
[1:53:01]
reminder for the next generation
[1:53:03]
of how Pointe-Claire council
[1:53:04]
dropped the ball in allowing its
[1:53:06]
development to proceed. It would
[1:53:08]
be a huge embarrassment for the
[1:53:11]
city and I'm truly puzzled by
[1:53:14]
your about-face on this campaign
[1:53:15]
promise. To then have Councillor
[1:53:19]
Stork, Thorstad-Cullen, and
[1:53:22]
Cowan citing for his bravery? I
[1:53:24]
don't think the citizens of
[1:53:25]
Pointe-Claire would cite him as
[1:53:27]
bravery. I would characterize it
[1:53:29]
as dishonest and a betrayal.
[1:53:31]
Using an excuse at the
[1:53:32]
consultation process is not
[1:53:33]
moving quickly enough as a
[1:53:35]
justification to ban developers
[1:53:37]
and exclude Pointe-Claire
[1:53:40]
residents from any consultation
[1:53:41]
is duplicitous behaviour. I also
[1:53:43]
think it is critical when
[1:53:44]
important issues such as these
[1:53:45]
are voted on by Council, that
[1:53:47]
all councillors vote on these
[1:53:48]
important issues, and if they
[1:53:49]
cannot make the meeting, have
[1:53:51]
them attend by phone or vote by
[1:53:52]
proxy like most boards do. This
[1:53:54]
will give a voice to all
[1:53:56]
Pointe-Claire -- residents.
[1:53:58]
Councillors, you were elected on
[1:53:59]
a clear mandate to stop runway
[1:54:01]
development and to consult with
[1:54:02]
citizens on the vision for the
[1:54:04]
future of Pointe-Claire. You do
[1:54:06]
not have a mandate to exclude
[1:54:07]
certain pet projects from the
[1:54:10]
consultation process. So I
[1:54:11]
caution you to remember and
[1:54:12]
honour your campaign promises.
[1:54:15]
If you are looking to retain
[1:54:16]
your seat in the next election.
[1:54:18]
Actions speak louder than words,
[1:54:20]
and the voters will remember how
[1:54:22]
you represented them and whether
[1:54:23]
you can be trusted to deliver on
[1:54:26]
you promise. In the last
[1:54:27]
election, Pointe-Claire voters
[1:54:29]
turfed the mayor and two
[1:54:30]
councillors, and we won't
[1:54:31]
hesitate to do it again. When
[1:54:34]
councillors are not acting with
[1:54:35]
accordance in their promises.
[1:54:37]
Things have changed in
[1:54:38]
Pointe-Claire, and residents are
[1:54:39]
not happy with the pace and
[1:54:40]
scale of development, and are
[1:54:41]
watching and noting what
[1:54:43]
councillors are doing. So my ask
[1:54:45]
of you today, is three. Things
[1:54:50]
put 275 and 325 Hymus projects
[1:54:51]
back into the ICB, which means
[1:54:53]
putting it to vote at the next
[1:54:55]
council meeting. We checked the
[1:54:57]
demolition request for 275 and
[1:55:00]
325 Hymus. And finally, change
[1:55:02]
the rules to allow Councillors
[1:55:04]
to -- who are absent from the
[1:55:06]
boat to attend by phone or vote
[1:55:09]
by proxy so their constituents
[1:55:10]
can have a second about and know
[1:55:12]
where they stand. Thank you.
[1:55:15]
>> Yes, Councillor Stork?
[1:55:18]
>> Your point number three I
[1:55:19]
fully agree with. Presents a
[1:55:22]
proxies I think is important. In
[1:55:24]
reference to 275, maybe some
[1:55:27]
people don't know this, and it's
[1:55:30]
important for all of you to
[1:55:31]
know, and this is true, this is
[1:55:32]
real, this is not doublespeak.
[1:55:37]
Even if we put them back in the
[1:55:39]
ICB, regardless of how we rezone
[1:55:43]
them, that zone park, to two
[1:55:49]
storeys, to a school, once the
[1:55:51]
ICB is over it will still be
[1:55:54]
judged on. It will still be
[1:55:57]
based upon the zoning prior
[1:55:58]
before the implementation of the
[1:56:00]
ICB. That is clear. So my reason
[1:56:05]
for supporting, protecting them
[1:56:06]
out, please because regardless
[1:56:08]
of the outcome of this ICB, they
[1:56:09]
will be judged upon, reviewed
[1:56:12]
upon, and decided upon. The
[1:56:16]
zoning bylaws that were prior to
[1:56:17]
the implementation of the ICB.
[1:56:20]
So why would we allow people to
[1:56:22]
go on for one, two, whatever the
[1:56:24]
process might take, we should
[1:56:25]
address them now and if we are
[1:56:27]
in support of it, we are in
[1:56:28]
support of it. If we are against
[1:56:29]
it we are against it. But that
[1:56:31]
is the fundamental reason why,
[1:56:32]
and I think it's very clear that
[1:56:33]
it would be unfair. Once again,
[1:56:36]
even if we were to change the
[1:56:38]
zoning in that area now, those
[1:56:39]
two projects would still be
[1:56:43]
decided upon according to the
[1:56:44]
zoning bylaws before the
[1:56:47]
implementation of the ICB. That
[1:56:50]
is very clear to me and that is
[1:56:52]
my justification.
[1:56:53]
>> Okay.
[1:56:54]
>> Thank you.
[1:56:55]
>> Sir?
[1:56:57]
>> Actually Mr. Stork, I
[1:57:01]
disagree with that last
[1:57:02]
statement that you said,. You
[1:57:06]
have the ability you put it in a
[1:57:10]
freeze and come out with a new
[1:57:11]
policy on how things will be
[1:57:13]
developed and how they will grow
[1:57:14]
and develop. Everything comes
[1:57:18]
with that. Otherwise, anybody
[1:57:20]
could do anything afterwards.
[1:57:22]
The projects have not been
[1:57:23]
built. Okay? They have not been
[1:57:25]
built, they have not been built,
[1:57:27]
they can be changed, and they
[1:57:29]
were all subject to the law,
[1:57:34]
what's the city of Pointe-Claire
[1:57:35]
wants to have done. So I'm very
[1:57:38]
much and disagreement. Many
[1:57:44]
other lawyers will also stand up
[1:57:45]
and give another stint --
[1:57:47]
statement that will contradict
[1:57:48]
which you are going to say.
[1:57:50]
That's with the law is all
[1:57:51]
about, and I disagree with it.
[1:57:52]
The point I wanted to make
[1:57:54]
anyway, is I have supported many
[1:57:57]
of the points that have been
[1:57:58]
raised here tonight on the
[1:57:59]
development, and also keeping
[1:58:01]
the buildings in the freeze,
[1:58:02]
they should stay in the freeze.
[1:58:06]
Hymus is really starting to look
[1:58:07]
like a mess. If you drive along
[1:58:09]
-- I welcome you to drive along
[1:58:11]
Hymus and see those two new
[1:58:13]
apartment buildings that have
[1:58:14]
been built, and try to enter
[1:58:16]
into them. You know, it's like
[1:58:20]
trying to drive into your own
[1:58:22]
little laneway. But actually,
[1:58:23]
it's even worse now because the
[1:58:25]
laneway goes down and you can't
[1:58:26]
see what's around there. So the
[1:58:28]
cars going in there, you are
[1:58:29]
looking, they are just terrible
[1:58:31]
to see how they don't have any
[1:58:34]
room to move into the spot.
[1:58:38]
Unlike Cambridge where you can
[1:58:39]
drive in and see when there is
[1:58:41]
not another car. You can't do
[1:58:42]
that for these two new latest
[1:58:45]
apartment buildings. I walk
[1:58:46]
along there, I see it, it's
[1:58:47]
dangerous. It is dangerous. And
[1:58:49]
the new buildings that are being
[1:58:52]
built, that you are projecting,
[1:58:54]
the densification is too much.
[1:58:56]
It's just too much. You need
[1:58:58]
more space between the
[1:58:59]
buildings. I'm embarrassed to be
[1:59:04]
living on that street now, to
[1:59:05]
know what it's going to look
[1:59:06]
like in the future. If you
[1:59:08]
people continue along to go
[1:59:11]
against what you said you were
[1:59:12]
going to bring in change and the
[1:59:13]
like, and we don't see it, and
[1:59:16]
the optics are not good. And we
[1:59:19]
will remember how people have
[1:59:20]
voted for it, so I'm very much
[1:59:24]
wanting to make sure the
[1:59:25]
buildings are staying in the
[1:59:26]
freeze and permits are not given
[1:59:27]
out for them to go ahead. And
[1:59:30]
one last thing as well, even the
[1:59:32]
trees I saw planted on this
[1:59:35]
latest one, there's probably
[1:59:37]
about six inches where these
[1:59:40]
trees are planted. They will
[1:59:42]
grow big and get blown over
[1:59:43]
because they need routes to go
[1:59:44]
down, but there's no roots
[1:59:46]
there. There is no routes. You
[1:59:49]
have about six inches of
[1:59:51]
topsoil, and the trees planted
[1:59:53]
in that. How long will that tree
[1:59:56]
last? Anyway, that's just a
[1:59:59]
small point, but the access to
[2:00:00]
these things, students. You guys
[2:00:02]
have to take a better look at
[2:00:03]
it. And I mentioned I understand
[2:00:07]
a lot of the things that go into
[2:00:08]
that. Thank you very much. Thank
[2:00:10]
you for the good points beanie
[2:00:11]
-- that have been raised by many
[2:00:14]
of the people here in the
[2:00:15]
audience tonight. They are
[2:00:17]
valuable contributions. Thank
[2:00:18]
you.
[2:00:32]
Michel Desbiens, Monsieur le
[2:00:34]
Maire, j'aurais une question
[2:00:36]
pour la fin. Vous n'avez pas
[2:00:38]
besoin de répondre. J'ai
[2:00:44]
travaillé dans quatre villes
[2:00:46]
pendant les derniers 45 ans que
[2:00:48]
je demeure à Pointe-Claire.
[2:00:52]
Savez-vous pourquoi je demeure à
[2:00:53]
Pointe-Claire? Vous avez la
[2:00:55]
meilleure ville à administrer et
[2:00:56]
que moi je connais. Vous avez
[2:01:00]
toute ma sympathie de voir
[2:01:02]
comment vous êtes reçue
[2:01:03]
(---)
[2:01:04]
. Si j'étais à votre place, je
[2:01:06]
serais découragé. Je ne veux pas
[2:01:08]
que vous vous découragez. Il y a
[2:01:10]
des leaders parmi vous. Vous
[2:01:17]
devez trouver une stratégie
[2:01:18]
entre vous. Vous avez une très
[2:01:21]
belle ville à administrer,
[2:01:23]
Mesdames et Messieurs. Ne lâchez
[2:01:24]
pas! La question que j'aimerais
[2:01:29]
vous poser. Je me le posé. Je
[2:01:32]
vais les poser. Comment ça se
[2:01:34]
fait-il qu'à Pointe-Claire on
[2:01:36]
n'a pas les problèmes qu'ils ont
[2:01:38]
à Montréal Nord? Quand vous
[2:01:40]
répondrez la question, vous ne
[2:01:43]
poserait plus de questions
[2:01:44]
pourquoi vous vivez à
[2:01:45]
Pointe-Claire. Je vous remercie.
[2:01:46]
Bonne soirée.
[2:01:48]
- Je peux répondre. On est bien
[2:01:51]
différent que Montréal-Nord. On
[2:01:53]
a commencé avec une vision
[2:01:56]
(inaudible)
[2:01:57]
(---)
[2:01:58]
. On a fait un plan pour la
[2:02:01]
ville qui était super bon.
[2:02:49]
J'ai choisi Pointe-Claire à
[2:02:50]
cause de mes enfants. Et la
[2:02:53]
qualité de vie, c'est super.
[2:03:00]
- Pourquoi c'est une super six
[2:03:01]
villes?
[2:03:49]
- À ce qu'il y a quelqu'un qui
[2:03:50]
parle?
[2:04:00]
- Est-ce que c'est une bonne?
[2:04:01]
Réponse
[2:04:02]
- J'ai un souhait: ne lâchées
[2:04:03]
pas mesdames et messieurs! Il y
[2:04:06]
a beaucoup de contestations. En
[2:04:09]
45 ans, c'est la première fois
[2:04:11]
que je vais au conseil. Ce sont
[2:04:14]
les trois derniers mois. Ce que
[2:04:15]
je vois, je ne l'aime pas. Je
[2:04:18]
vais vous encourager à
[2:04:21]
continuer. On vous a choisi pour
[2:04:23]
administrer Pointe-Claire. Vous
[2:04:25]
avez une maudite belle ville
[2:04:27]
administrée. J'ai travaillé dans
[2:04:28]
quatre villes, je les connais.
[2:04:32]
- Merci, Messieurs.
[2:04:33]
- Ne lâchait pas! Essayez de
[2:04:36]
vous trouver une stratégie
[2:04:37]
ensemble pour travailler. Les
[2:04:39]
gens, s'ils ont des raisons, ils
[2:04:41]
sont habitués d'une certaine
[2:04:43]
façon. Ça a changé dans les
[2:04:45]
dernières années. C'est ça. Ils
[2:04:47]
ne sont pas capables de
[2:04:48]
s'habituer. Ils voudraient avoir
[2:04:50]
peut-être de meilleures
[2:04:52]
communications, une meilleure
[2:04:53]
stratégie de votre part. C'est à
[2:04:54]
vous à la trouver. Je vous
[2:04:56]
souhaite de la trouver.
[2:04:57]
- Merci, Monsieur.
[2:05:00]
- Bonsoir.
[2:05:01]
- C'est très gentil, merci
[2:05:02]
beaucoup.
[2:05:07]
Désolé.
[2:05:26]
Pour les points 10.01., 10.02..
[2:05:31]

[2:06:52]

[2:08:09]
Madame Thibault?
[2:08:13]
- 10.01. Appel portant sur la
[2:08:14]
décision du comité de démolition
[2:08:15]
concernant l'approbation de la
[2:08:16]
démolition et du programme de
[2:08:17]
réutilisation du sol visant
[2:08:18]
l'immeuble situé au 275,
[2:08:19]
boulevard Hymus.
[2:09:42]
Je suis d'accord avec la
[2:09:43]
décision du comité.
[2:15:57]
- O.K., 10.02.
[2:18:58]
- Madame Thibault, je vous
[2:18:59]
attends.
[2:19:27]
-, O.K. 10.03.
[2:19:30]
- Adoption d'un règlement
[2:19:31]
abrogeant le Règlement PC-2917
[2:19:32]
modifiant diverses dispositions
[2:19:33]
des règlements municipaux de la
[2:19:34]
Ville de Pointe-Claire dans le
[2:19:35]
cadre de l'état d'urgence
[2:19:36]
sanitaire décrétée par le
[2:19:37]
gouvernement du Québec. En mai
[2:19:39]
de 1020, suite à la déclaration
[2:19:40]
de l'état d'urgence sanitaire
[2:19:41]
décrétée par le gouvernement du
[2:19:42]
Québec, la Ville de
[2:19:44]
Pointe-Claire à adopter le
[2:19:46]
règlement 29. 17 qui visait à
[2:19:49]
prolonger certains délais
[2:19:50]
applicable dans la
[2:19:51]
réglementation de la ville. La
[2:19:52]
levée de l'état d'urgence le 1er
[2:19:53]
juin dernier fait en sorte que
[2:19:54]
ce règlement n'a plus d'utilité,
[2:19:56]
n'est plus applicable, en
[2:19:58]
conséquence, il est recommandé
[2:19:59]
de l'approcher. L'abroger.
[2:20:06]
- 10.04., Je pense?
[2:20:23]
10.04.? Oui
[2:20:42]
10.05. Considérer les plans
[2:20:43]

[2:20:45]
propriétés mentionnées
[2:20:46]
ci-dessous: - 148, avenue de
[2:20:47]

[2:20:53]
construction d'un
[2:20:54]
agrandissement. - 51, avenue
[2:20:57]
Summerhill construction d'une
[2:20:58]
véranda; - 43, avenue King

[2:21:08]
agrandissement.; - 44, avenue
[2:21:09]
Drayton. Un agrandissement.
[2:22:54]
Bon, 10.06.?
[2:23:09]
C'est juste des commentaires.
[2:24:04]
10.07.
[2:24:51]
Les personnes présentes peuvent
[2:24:52]
s'adresser au conseil concernant
[2:24:53]
les sujets ci-dessous pour les
[2:24:54]
items 10.07 à 10.12:
[2:25:05]
- Oui?
[2:25:13]
10.07. Considérer une demande de
[2:25:14]
dérogation mineure pour
[2:25:15]
permettre au 12A, avenue Bowling
[2:25:18]
Green une remise de jardin avec
[2:25:19]
un taux d'implantation de 22,11%
[2:25:23]
plutôt que le maximum permis de
[2:25:24]
20%.
[2:31:41]
- Bonsoir tout le monde.
[2:46:59]
- Considérez-vous avant de
[2:47:00]
dérogation mineure...
[2:47:09]
c'était un refus, mais
[2:47:10]
c'était...
[2:47:11]
(inaudible)
[2:47:14]
si juste les propriétaires, que
[2:47:15]
je pourrais parler de mon
[2:47:16]
projet?
[2:47:21]
- C'est trop tard, mais bon, je
[2:47:22]
vais laisser le président de
[2:47:23]
l'Assemblée...
[2:47:25]
- Rapidement, peut-être?
[2:47:32]
- Nous habitons. Mon nom est
[2:47:34]
Valérie Tardif. On habite sur
[2:47:35]
Boeing Greene, ou les
[2:47:36]
restrictions, les terrains
[2:47:37]
historiquement sont très grands.
[2:47:39]
Sur bowling Green. Alors c'est
[2:47:43]
pour ça qu'il y avait un
[2:47:44]
pourcentage prévu qui est un peu
[2:47:45]
moindre, sur cette rue-là, pour
[2:47:46]
les... les édifices secondaires.
[2:47:50]
En fait, les cabanons, alors
[2:47:56]
parce qu'qu'il y a des
[2:47:57]
(---)
[2:47:58]
de 4000 pieds carrés, et on
[2:47:59]
voulait éviter qu'il y ait des
[2:48:01]
cabanons qui soient immenses,
[2:48:02]
notre terrain fait partie, c'est
[2:48:03]
une maison qui a été bâtie en
[2:48:05]
1964, le plus loin à peu près de
[2:48:06]
l'eau. Qui a été bâtie sur une
[2:48:11]
subdivision de la maison qui
[2:48:12]
était à côté. Notre terrain de
[2:48:14]
7000 pieds carrés. Donc en
[2:48:18]
demandant la dérogation,
[2:48:20]
essentiellement, on demande qui
[2:48:24]
respecte les normes de partout
[2:48:25]
ailleurs à Pointe-Claire, avec
[2:48:31]
des terrains qui sont similaires
[2:48:33]
en fait de superficie, donc ça
[2:48:35]
revient à avoir la même grandeur
[2:48:37]
de cabanons que partout
[2:48:38]
ailleurs, et comme je disais, la
[2:48:39]
raison pour laquelle le
[2:48:41]
pourcentage est plus bas sur
[2:48:43]
cette rue, c'est en raison des
[2:48:44]
très grands terrains qui étaient
[2:48:45]
là à l'époque. Notre terrain
[2:48:49]
environ 7000 pieds carrés, donc
[2:48:50]
quand on parle du faible
[2:48:51]
pourcentage, pour nous, ça fait
[2:48:52]
quand même une petite différence
[2:48:53]
de quelques pieds. On a deux
[2:48:54]
enfants, des bicyclettes. Tout
[2:48:57]
le tralala qu'on a. Et puis on
[2:49:01]
n'a pas un immense maison aussi,
[2:49:02]
sur bowling Green. Donc ce
[2:49:06]
serait bien pratique pour nous,
[2:49:07]
et ce n'est pas une énorme
[2:49:08]
différence avec ce qu'il y a sur
[2:49:14]
bowling Green, de un, dû au fait
[2:49:15]
que notre terrain est beaucoup
[2:49:16]
plus petit proportionnellement
[2:49:17]
parlant, et dans un deuxième
[2:49:19]
temps, on est dans le respect,
[2:49:21]
si on, veut de l'idéologie
[2:49:24]
derrière ces règles-là si on
[2:49:26]
regarde les règles pour le reste
[2:49:27]
des maisons à Pointe-Claire.
[2:49:29]
Alors je voulais apporter ces
[2:49:30]
précisions-là qui sont quand
[2:49:31]
même importantes. Si j'avais un
[2:49:34]
terrain de 30000 pieds carrés,
[2:49:35]
ça serait un cabanon
[2:49:36]
complètement énorme. Mais ce
[2:49:37]
n'est pas le temps, dans notre,
[2:49:39]
dans le cas de notre propriété.
[2:49:42]
- Merci. Monsieur? Non, non,
[2:49:45]
Monsieur, vous être contre ça?
[2:49:48]
- Non, je suis le 1009. Vous
[2:49:52]
venez dire que
[2:49:53]
(inaudible)
[2:49:55]
- Alors je demanderais au
[2:49:56]
Conseil de reconsidérer le vote.
[2:49:58]
Je ne sais pas si vous allez
[2:49:59]
changer votre vote suite à mes
[2:50:00]
explications. Qui clarifie, à
[2:50:02]
mon avis, la situation. Alors
[2:50:05]
j'ai demandé au Conseil de
[2:50:06]
reconsidérer le vote, étant
[2:50:07]
donné mes explications.
[2:50:09]
- Qu'est-ce qu'on peut faire,
[2:50:10]
Madame Thibault?
[2:50:26]
- Je veux juste apporter à
[2:50:28]
l'attention, mon nom est Jacques
[2:50:29]
Drouin. 93, avenue Elgin, à
[2:50:31]
Pointe-Claire. Mon voisinage a
[2:50:35]
été avisée de tout ça. Il n'y a
[2:50:39]
pas personne qui a émis un quoi
[2:50:41]
que ce soit comme problème au
[2:50:44]
niveau de ça. Je suis à un coin
[2:50:46]
de rue. La maison, la manière
[2:50:50]
dont il est bâti, il n'y a pas
[2:50:54]
grand option autre que celle
[2:50:55]
qu'on a. La raison, je ne ferai
[2:50:59]
pas brailler personne, la raison
[2:51:01]
pour laquelle on demande cette
[2:51:04]
dérogation-là, mineur, c'est
[2:51:05]
pour nous permettre de rester
[2:51:06]
là. J'ai malheureusement eu la
[2:51:07]
COVID. J'ai été 119 jours
[2:51:10]
hospitalisé. Je suis maintenant
[2:51:13]
un petit peu plus diminuer,
[2:51:14]
physiquement. Je n'ai pas de
[2:51:16]
salle de bains à l'étage. Moi,
[2:51:18]
ma salle de lavage et dans la
[2:51:19]
cave. Nous affaire de cannage et
[2:51:23]
de... tout est dans la cave. Mon
[2:51:28]
épouse est obligé de me donner
[2:51:29]
un bon coup de main pour ça.
[2:51:31]
Alors la raison pour laquelle on
[2:51:33]
demande cette dérogation
[2:51:34]
mineure-là, c'est pour nous
[2:51:36]
permettre, parce qu'on aime ça,
[2:51:37]
Pointe-Claire. C'est pour nous
[2:51:39]
permettre de rester ici! Et de
[2:51:43]
continuer à faire notre vie. Ça
[2:51:46]
fait 43 ans que je demeure au 93
[2:51:47]
avenue Elgin. Probablement plus
[2:51:48]
que bien du monde ici. 43 ans!
[2:51:53]
Alors, quand on est arrivé là,
[2:51:55]
pas d'enfants, on a deux
[2:51:56]
enfants. J'en ai un de 41 de 38.
[2:51:59]
Alors ils ont tous vécu ça ici.
[2:52:02]
C'est pour ça qu'on veut rester
[2:52:03]
là. Alors, si j'avais eu des
[2:52:07]
voisins qui s'y étaient opposés,
[2:52:08]
je pourrais comprendre ça. Je
[2:52:10]
n'ai pas de voisins qui
[2:52:11]
s'opposent. J'ai même une lettre
[2:52:12]
de la personne qui est le plus
[2:52:13]
touché par ça. Dans le dossier.
[2:52:16]
Qui, elle, dit: il n'y a pas de
[2:52:17]
problème, là. Vas-y. Alors je ne
[2:52:23]
comprends pas la logique de ça.
[2:52:26]
Alors je vous demande de réviser
[2:52:27]
votre vote. Merci.
[2:52:31]
- Si je suis capable, la raison
[2:52:33]
pour ça qu'il n'y a pas
[2:52:36]
d'inquiétudes avec votre
[2:52:37]
proposition. Mais de l'autre
[2:52:40]
côté, pour les
[2:52:41]
(---)
[2:52:43]
parce que si nous allons
[2:52:44]
promettre pour vous de faire les
[2:52:48]
(inaudible)
[2:52:49]
du côté nord-, il y a une chance
[2:52:50]
dans toute la ligne de la rue
[2:52:51]
(inaudible)
[2:52:52]
. Alors ça, c'est une grosse
[2:52:55]
inquiétude pour
[2:52:56]
(---)
[2:52:57]
. Mais après ce soir, nous
[2:52:58]
serons capables de discuter...
[2:53:01]
- Je veux juste vous dire que
[2:53:02]
quand on retarde un mois, je ne
[2:53:05]
peux pas, j'ai un constructeur.
[2:53:08]
Mais je ne peux pas l'engager
[2:53:12]
tant que je n'ai pas le hockey
[2:53:13]
de la ville. Parce que je veux
[2:53:14]
faire les choses correctement.
[2:53:15]
Et là, ce que vous faites, vous
[2:53:16]
êtes en train de me reculer pour
[2:53:17]
le printemps. Mon état n'est pas
[2:53:22]
celui normale que j'ai vécue il
[2:53:23]
y a 2 ans. Je les, je l'ai eu,
[2:53:26]
je la traîne. J'essaie
[2:53:28]
simplement d'améliorer mon sort.
[2:53:32]
Mes voisins n'ont pas protesté.
[2:53:33]
Alors je ne comprends pas que
[2:53:35]
vous, qui est tout près de chez
[2:53:38]
nous, qui connaissent exactement
[2:53:40]
le coin...
[2:53:41]
- Mais, mais, mais...
[2:53:44]
- Vous connaissez le coin.
[2:53:45]
- Exactement, exactement.
[2:53:47]
- Si vous regardez les plans, on
[2:53:48]
ne nuit pas à personne. Alors je
[2:53:51]
retrouve la situation un
[2:53:54]
peut-être, pour vous autres,
[2:53:55]
administrativement, bien
[2:53:56]
correct. Mais humainement... ce
[2:53:57]
n'est pas bon. Merci.
[2:53:59]
- Merci.

oppose an overpass, for

pedestrians and cyclists, but
[3:14:32]
simply because I think we need

[3:31:04]
- Monsieur le Maire, mesdames,
[3:31:06]
messieurs, membres du conseil,
[3:31:07]
mes amis les employés. Mesdames
[3:31:09]
et messieurs mes citoyens, ce
[3:31:10]
soir, c'était ma dernière
[3:31:11]
assemblée publique dans une
[3:31:12]
carrière où j'aurai fait
[3:31:13]
au-dessus de 1000 assemblées
[3:31:14]
publiques. Ça a été pour moi,
[3:31:17]
travailler 8 heures à
[3:31:18]
Pointe-Claire, un honneur et un
[3:31:19]
plaisir. Honneur parce que
[3:31:21]
c'était une équipe
[3:31:22]
exceptionnelle, autant au niveau
[3:31:23]
des élus que les employés de la
[3:31:24]
population. Ça a été agréable de
[3:31:26]
travailler avec des gens
[3:31:27]
déterminés et engagés à faire de
[3:31:28]
leur ville la meilleure ville
[3:31:29]
possible. Et aussi un plaisir
[3:31:30]
parce que j'ai trouvé les défis
[3:31:33]
quotidiens, tous les défis
[3:31:34]
quotidiens qu'on peut vouloir
[3:31:35]
rencontrer, auxquelles on peut
[3:31:36]
faire, face et surtout la
[3:31:37]
collaboration nécessaire pour
[3:31:38]
réaliser quoi que ce soit. Tout
[3:31:40]
seul, je n'aurais rien fait. Si
[3:31:43]
je réussis à le faire, c'est
[3:31:44]
parce que le travail de tout le
[3:31:45]
monde, c'est le travail des
[3:31:46]
élus, de tous les employés
[3:31:47]
surtout. Sans eux, il n'y a rien
[3:31:48]
qui se fait.
[3:31:50]
>> I would like to thank
[3:31:51]
everybody for the support they
[3:31:54]
gave me over the last eight
[3:31:55]
years, and the collaboration you
[3:31:57]
gave to me, I will be sure to
[3:32:00]
remember me it for the city of
[3:32:02]
Pointe-Claire, and for the
[3:32:03]
coming years, to the Association
[3:32:06]
of -- to be able to help the
[3:32:08]
city and the files with the
[3:32:10]
agglomeration of Montréal. We
[3:32:11]
know they have -- thank you very
[3:32:14]
much.
[3:32:17]
- Merci, Monsieur Weemaes.
[3:32:24]

[3:32:43]
Ouimet.
