De L’honorable Mona Fortier, Député Rideau-Vanier
Dans le cadre de l’étude du Plan intégré à long terme sur les liens interprovinciaux de la région de la capitale du Canada, la Commission de la Capitale nationale mettra en place un sondage en ligne à l’intention du grand public, celui-ci se déroulera du 19 octobre au 2 novembre. Le sondage et d’autres documents de référence seront bientôt disponibles sur la page Web du projet à l’adresse https://ncc-ccn.gc.ca/projects/long-term-integrated-interprovincial-crossing-plan.
From the Honourable Mona Fortier, MP Rideau-Vanier:
As part of the study of the Long-Term Integrated Interprovincial Crossing Plan in Canada’s Capital Region, the National Capital Commission will be conducting an online survey for the general public to give input, which will be from October 19 to Nov 2. The survey with additional reference material will be here on the project webpage soon: https://ncc-ccn.gc.ca/projects/long-term-integrated-interprovincial-crossing-plan
2d. The Carleton University Neighbourhood Policing survey is ongoing
The Neighbourhood Policing Survey is still active online. Students who are currently registered in Sprott School of Business’ MBA class on Managing Change have developed this survey to help the Ottawa Police Service better understand the safety and security issues experienced by those living in Vanier/Overbrook as well as their satisfaction with the police services available in their neighbourhood. Information from this survey will inform the decisions regarding the direction of the neighbourhood resource team program. It will also provide benchmark data which will allow the OPS to evaluate the effectiveness of the neighbourhood resource teams.
If you haven’t already done so, complete the survey to help provide good representation of all members of the neighbourhood: https://cuhealth.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cMuy0zULRJF53SJ
