[3:48]
7.17. It's not the first time you've

mentioned this agreement with the

you spoke in different parts,

clarify what an agreement is.
[4:16]
Just to hear a general topic, just to say what it is. Yes, yes,

noted. That's all. Thank you very much. Are there any
[4:26]

leave to appeal the judgment rendered by
[6:02]
the Superior Court was filed by the law firm of
[6:04]
Lavoie, attorney for and on behalf of
[6:08]
Ms. Martin Ropel; whereas the judgment
[6:11]
rendered by the Honourable Martin
[6:13]
Ropel granted the application for
[6:16]
leave to appeal, ordering the
[6:21]
CISSSL to suspend its decision to close

whereas the CISSL's decision

to close the Rouge River emergency department in
[7:06]
the evening and at night has
[7:08]
repercussions for all
[7:09]
citizens of the RCMs

other hospitals in the

province of Quebec are likely to face
[7:22]
service reductions and/or
[7:23]
emergency room closures in the short or medium term, and that such a
[7:27]
decision could
[7:29]
occur in any region
[7:31]
of Quebec, and that a
[7:34]
favorable ruling from the City of Rivière Rouge
[7:36]
could benefit all
[7:38]
municipalities in Quebec, and given that the
[7:40]
City of Rivière Rouge needs
[7:42]
the support of all
[7:44]
Quebec municipalities in its legal proceedings, and given
[7:46]
that these proceedings are undertaken
[7:49]
to defend a noble and

legitimate cause—namely, the right to life and

[8:32]
least $2 per resident. Thank you
[8:36]
very much, ladies and gentlemen. As
[8:38]
you know very well, the hospital is not
[8:40]
a municipal responsibility, but it is
[8:41]
really the municipalities that are
[8:43]
always in constant debate with the
[8:46]
government about the importance of having
[8:48]
local services for our
[8:50]

[27:25]
We have reached Article
[27:28]
9.02, Appointment and Authority.
[27:31]
In fire prevention, within the framework
[27:33]
of the regional fire prevention service offer, it is
[27:38]
understood that the fire safety law and the
[27:44]
Ministry's fire safety guidelines
[27:45]
mention the obligation for
[27:48]
local municipalities to take
[27:50]
fire prevention actions.
[27:53]
Given that the
[27:55]
Ministry's
[27:57]
fire safety guidelines require
[28:00]
local municipalities to establish a
[28:03]
municipal fire prevention program that
[28:05]
includes five components, in accordance with section
[28:08]
3.1, namely: Component 1: incident assessment and
[28:13]
analysis; Component 2:
[28:15]
municipal fire prevention regulations;
[28:18]
Component 3:
[28:21]
smoke detector verification; Component 4:
[28:25]
periodic inspection of the highest risks; and Component
[28:28]
5:
[28:30]
public awareness activities. The
[28:33]
MRC of Haut-Saint-Laurent has submitted a
[28:35]
regional fire prevention service offer that
[28:38]
meets the requirements of the five components to be
[28:41]
included: a
[28:45]
municipal
[28:48]
fire prevention program, Component 4:
[28:51]
periodic inspection of the
[28:53]
highest risks, and Component 5:
[28:56]
public awareness activities. The
[28:59]
municipality of Saintaniss is part
[29:01]
of the regional fire prevention services
[29:03]
offered. By the Remer du sonang,
[29:07]
given that the municipality of
[29:08]
Saintanisset signed the
[29:10]
intermunicipal agreement in Condal, the
[29:13]
regional fire prevention service offer
[29:15]
on April 13,
[29:18]
2023,
[29:21]
2023-04-820, council member that the
[29:23]
municipality of Saintanisset, Mr.
[29:26]
David, the preventionist wave for the
[29:29]
MRRC of Saintanisset, as the competent authority
[29:32]
in fire prevention on its
[29:35]
territory, objection, ladies and
[29:38]
gentlemen, we have reached 10 rounds
[29:40]
of discussion, council member, you have no
[29:42]
subject to mention, we have reached
[29:44]
item 11, round table,
[29:47]
Madam Councillor, please, good evening everyone,
[29:50]
the MRC is
[29:53]
responsible for agricultural watercourses and
[29:56]
N, a member of the MRC to carry out the
[29:59]
Rivière la Guerre project which
[30:02]
consists of reducing the volume of
[30:05]
pumping in Lake Saint-François, so
[30:09]
the file is moving forward and we will have
[30:12]
a meeting soon where the MRC will
[30:15]
explain the report on
[30:17]
building management that they had done, uh, it was
[30:20]
done about a year ago, so we're eager
[30:24]
to see the results
[30:26]
to move the project forward. Thank you very
[30:29]
much, Mr. Councillor, District
[30:30]
2. Yes, thank you, sir. During spring
[30:33]
break, the Huntingden AR
[30:36]
has several events we can
[30:39]
talk about. The Huntingden Optimist Club
[30:42]
is organizing a free sailing session
[30:44]
on Thursday, March 7th, between 2 pm and 4 pm.
[30:47]
The activity is free for all
[30:49]
children 12 years old and under. They will receive a
[30:52]
hot dog or a snack. Commented by the
[30:54]
Huntingden Optimist Club, Laarina. Also, free sailing on
[30:58]
Saturday, March 9th, from 10 am to 11 am for
[31:01]
children aged 9 to 12, and from 11 am to noon for those aged 13 to
[31:05]
15. Full equipment is
[31:08]
mandatory for
[31:09]
safety reasons. Also, free sailing at the
[31:12]
cost of coins on March 5th from 2 pm to 4 pm, and on
[31:17]
Wednesday, March 6th from 2 pm to 4 pm. The

[31:26]
4 PM, Saturday from 7 PM to 8:30 PM, and Sunday
[31:30]
from 1 PM to

2:30 PM. So it's all very busy, it's a lot of
[31:38]
this and it's very important to keep
[31:40]
the whole family active, and
[31:42]
when we have the infrastructure, I
[31:45]
recommend you participate. Thank you very much,
[31:47]
Madam District Councillor. Nothing for me, thank you, thank you very much,
[31:49]
Madam
[31:52]
District Councillor. Please, good evening to you all. A few
[31:54]
points regarding
[31:57]
the eco-centre: last week, more than a few
[32:00]
weeks ago, I had the opportunity to
[32:02]
replace the Mayor at the MRC and
[32:05]
Ms. Lebrun, who is the MA of
[32:09]
Sainte-Barbe. It was official that
[32:12]
she would meet with us in
[32:14]
April or May because they
[32:17]
are waiting for a
[32:19]
bid from the people
[32:23]
who will be working on
[32:25]
the eco-centre on the site. It will
[32:28]
be a
[32:29]
non-profit organization. Those who work for the
[32:32]
municipality of Valetfille at the eco-centre The
[32:35]
fact is, they're waiting for a bid, not a
[32:37]
grant, sorry, but a
[32:40]
quote, and from there they'll
[32:42]
get the prices. So they'll be able to
[32:44]
meet with us, and we're waiting for
[32:46]
that too. I want to speak on behalf of the
[32:49]
Optimist Club—sorry, I'm
[32:53]
eating my words tonight—the Optimist Club.
[32:57]
You know there's going to be a
[32:59]
corn festival. Tickets are on
[33:01]
sale for the show, and if you have a
[33:04]
little time to spare (2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 20
[33:06]
hours) to volunteer, we're
[33:09]
looking for volunteers. The wonderful, big
[33:12]
family is waiting for you with
[33:14]
open arms. Thank you very much, Madam
[33:16]
Councillor for District 5.
[33:18]
Hello, I'm part of the
[33:21]
Canau committee. There will be a meeting with
[33:23]
BNL on March 19th. If you have any
[33:26]
questions, you
[33:27]
can address them to me or to Ms.
[33:30]
Marie Rachelle Charlebis, the president
[33:32]
of BNL. That's all. Thank you very much, ladies
[33:35]
and gentlemen.
[33:37]
For the past month, the MRC, as you
[33:40]
know, is working on our strategy.
[33:42]
We've done it, we've had our
[33:45]
Analysis report of our diagnosis. We also
[33:47]
conducted the socio-economic study, an
[33:50]
excellent report, and last month, on
[33:54]
February 21st, we had the opportunity to work on defining the strategic directions,
[33:59]
objectives, timeline,
[34:02]
vision, and mission of our RCM.
[34:05]
This will be a very, very, very valuable document
[34:08]
to help
[34:10]
guide the RCM for the
[34:12]
coming years.
[34:16]
Furthermore, next Tuesday at 6:00 PM, the RCM
[34:21]
will present its waste management plan.
[34:23]
I
[34:27]
urge all citizens, if you have the time, to
[34:28]
attend. The waste
[34:31]
management plan is very interesting;
[34:33]
it represents innovation.
[34:35]
All the changes taking place will
[34:37]
have an impact on how we use waste management,
[34:40]
but it's also important to be aware of the importance
[34:42]
of all of this. Again, this is on
[34:44]
Tuesday, March 12th at 6:00 PM at the RCM. Also, on
[34:50]
March 19th, I will be participating in the
[34:53]
Motterigien forum, which focuses on strategies for
[34:55]
municipalities. In the face of
[34:57]
climate change, we will
[34:59]
discuss civil security plans,
[35:01]
how
[35:03]
municipalities can adapt to climate change, and make
[35:05]
recommendations. We will also discuss the
[35:10]
current and future
[35:12]
impact of municipal co-fiscality and solutions in
[35:15]
rural and urban municipal settings.
[35:18]
We will also look at how to
[35:19]
make recommendations for
[35:21]
other municipalities to share
[35:23]
best practices and develop
[35:26]
tools for the entire process. The meeting will conclude
[35:27]
on March 19th. If
[35:33]
you have children, don't forget that on
[35:36]
Saturdays, there are
[35:38]
children's story time sessions at the
[35:41]
library. Please
[35:44]
bring your grandchildren. We are
[35:46]
currently on question period number 12.
[35:48]
Remember, we
[35:50]
are recorded. I would ask you to
[35:52]
state your first and last name, and
[35:54]
also the organization you
[35:55]
represent. The floor is now open to you,
[35:57]
ladies and gentlemen.
[35:59]
Madam, this is your
[36:04]
moment. Yes, madam, thank you very much.
[36:12]
I am here to ask for...
[36:15]
Permission to have beehives in
[36:18]
the area. Bees
[36:20]
are not a
[36:23]
threat. I found
[36:27]
a document on the Quebec government website called "
[36:29]
Beekeeping in Quebec" which gives us
[36:33]
good guidelines and also
[36:37]
organizes things like a
[36:40]
municipality, setting parameters
[36:42]
for all of this.
[36:47]
One thing I found very
[36:49]
interesting is that the beehives
[36:51]
must be registered with the
[36:55]
municipality. It
[36:58]
requires a citizen to
[37:01]
present the location, which is
[37:07]
planned, and
[37:10]
then
[37:12]
on how
[37:23]
the organization works. Thank you very much,
[37:25]
Madam. We will review the
[37:27]
documents you currently have.
[37:29]
Our regulations do not grant this
[37:31]
authorization; it's more for
[37:32]
green zones and not for white zones. At that point, we
[37:35]
will review
[37:37]
the document you have
[37:38]
from the Quebec government to
[37:40]
learn a little more about the urban aspect. As long as
[37:43]
we are in a rural environment, it's to
[37:45]
ensure that the Council has the correct
[37:46]
information, and at that point, we can
[37:48]
take a
[37:50]
future direction. At this moment, I cannot
[37:52]
answer you whether you have the authority or not.
[37:53]
Here, we must give the administration a chance
[37:55]
and also... A
[37:57]
presentation to the Council members, okay,
[37:59]
thank you very much,
[38:01]
ma'am, it works, it works, okay, good evening everyone, I hope everyone is
[38:10]
well. I came to
[38:13]
see about Serge Côé, thank you very much. I
[38:16]
came to see about
[38:18]
the park matter. You Z, to provide me with the
[38:20]
accountant's papers on January 24th, I haven't had any
[38:24]
news. I wanted to
[38:25]
know what this is,
[38:29]
access to information.
[38:31]
Mr. Maison engaged in the meeting with
[38:33]
Mr. C, the accountant on March 18th at the
[38:36]
municipality. These are documents to
[38:38]
submit the verification to. These are documents to
[38:42]
come in February, but on March 18th, okay, that's good, evening, thank you very much. Are there any
[38:50]
questions from the
[38:55]
room,
[38:59]
Mr. Gognon? But it can happen,
[39:01]
a break, it's time-consuming. At that moment,
[39:05]
I will ask, sir, we have reached
[39:07]
sector 13, Mr.
[39:10]
Director General, question period, have
[39:12]
we received any
[39:14]
written questions? I had the question from the lady who came,
[39:16]
you answered, sir, okay,
[39:19]
thank you very much, ma'am, in your One
[39:20]
more question, ladies and gentlemen: if
