Latest updates
Councillor Carr posts questions for MPP roundtable meeting
- Ghosting the Council: Will you finally provide written responses to the various resolutions and letters the City has sent your offices over the last few years? Also, why the long silence?
- Consultation Gaps: Since recent housing bills were passed with almost no input from local leaders, will you commit to actually consulting with municipalities before passing laws that affect them?
- The “Broken” Healthcare System: Many residents feel “Health Care Connect” is a black hole where patients are forgotten. What is the province’s plan to fix this reputation and prove the system actually works?
- The 15,000-Patient Gap: Belleville has 15,000 residents without a doctor, but only 1,000 are on your official “Connect” list. How do you plan to find and help those other 14,000 people by your 2029 deadline?
- Doctor Recruitment: Should the city stop offering its own financial incentives to recruit doctors and just rely on the province’s “Health Care Connect” system?
- Trail Expansion: Do you support the North Riverfront Trail extension under Highway 401 and will you help secure the necessary provincial approvals?
- Homelessness Resources: Since current provincial programs aren’t slowing the homelessness crisis, what specific steps are you taking to get more resources for Belleville?
- Mental Health & Addictions: Provincial investment isn’t meeting the local demand for mental health and substance abuse support—how are you advocating for better results?
- Stagnant Funding: Homelessness funding has been frozen at $6.1M for three years; do you honestly think this is enough given that the number of unhoused people is rising?
- The “$10 Rule”: Why has the provincial allocation for discretionary benefits (OW/ODSP) remained unchanged at $10 per case for over 30 years?
- Housing Cuts: With OPHI housing funding set to end by 2028, what are you doing to prevent the loss of these subsidies that keep people in affordable rentals?
- Public Health Costs: Should the province pay a larger share of Public Health costs, since healthcare is technically a provincial responsibility?
- Developer Accountability: New laws made it faster and cheaper for developers to get approvals, yet they are sitting on land without building. How will you hold them accountable?
- The $7.5 Million Shortfall: Provincial housing bills caused Belleville to lose millions in development fees. How will you ensure the province fulfills its promise to make the city “whole” (reimburse the lost revenue)?
