A major joint initiative between the Toronto Police Service (TPS), the Toronto Police Services Board (TPSB), and the Ontario Human Rights Commission (OHRC) to bring about institutional change in combating racism and discrimination celebrates a new milestone.
An event celebrating the projects completion is being held today at 11:50 a.m, at St. Lawrence Hall.
Toronto Mayor David Miller will be the keynote speaker.
The Human Rights Project Charter, launched in 2007, arose out of a need to address human rights concerns about police that were being brought before the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario. The three−year project involved a working group of staff from each of the three organizations.
Their task was to look at human rights issues in the employment policies and
the delivery of police services. In particular, the working group examined recruitment, selection, promotion &retention, police learning, accountability and public education. A series of strategies to deal with each area was developed. The partners agree that, through research, analysis, dialogue and the exchange of new ideas, real progress has been achieved in all these areas.
“This unique project has enabled the Toronto Police Service to learn a great deal about how it can deliver its services in a fair, equitable and bias−free manner and respond better to, and reflect, the communities it serves,” Chief Bill Blair said. “I am confident that the relationships we have established through this partnership will be long−lasting as we continue to work
together to provide quality policing services to all Torontonians.”
Toronto Police Services Board Chair Alok Mukherjee said: “We are proud of this Project Charter and the cooperative way in which we have all established productive working relationships with the Ontario Human Rights Commission. Our efforts through this joint venture will ensure that the Toronto Police Service continues to provide effective policing that is accountable and sensitive to community needs,” Mukherjee said. “The benefits of this
project will no doubt continue to be felt for years to come.”
Chief Commissioner Barbara Hall said: “I am delighted with the many positive results that have come out of this unique partnership project and the constructive steps that the Toronto Police Service and the Toronto Police Services Board have taken to address human rights concerns.
While there is still work to do, this project serves as an ideal example of how such partnerships can help others also create a culture of human rights within their organizations.”
Participants will be available for interviews after the event.

Volvo Cars Plug-In for 2012
Swedish energy company Vattenfall and the Volvo Car Corporation are launching an industrial joint venture partnership to introduce Plug-in hybrids on the market in 2012. The ground-breaking technology will considerably lower the environmental impact from traffic. In addition, owning a Plug-in hybrid vehicle will be convenient since the car can be charged from a regular household wall socket at home (costing only 3 Euro per 100km) and fuel costs are significantly lower, using only 2 litres per 100 km. The battery takes about five hours to charge from a standard wall socket, and the battery is also charged every time the car’s brakes are applied. Volvo Cars will manufacture the cars and Vattenfall will develop charging systems and supply the cars with electricity.

can you turn a joint???
can you turn a sole partnership into a joint venture
Yes. Just update the business license application you filed with the state.
And educate yourself about the implications of changing from sole to joint. For example, tax issues and profit and debt ownership. Also, how if the business goes bust, it could ruin your friendship or if you are profitable you might fight over who gets more.
I have never been able to find anyone I would consider going into business with. I’d rather go solo. I’ve also known people who started solo then turned into a corporation and made their family into board members then the family took over. It was no longer his baby especially after they started making a lot of money. The original owner barely had any say in it any more.
Of course, you are more protected in a corporation in case of lawsuits.
Blah blah blah.,

Traditional Owners and Law Custodians are threatening legal action to stop the proposed development of the biggest LNG precinct in the world, just north of Broome. Joe Roe, Goolarabooloo and Neil McKenzie from Jabirr Jabirr with representatives from Save the Kimberley traveled to Perth last week to meet with the Browse Basin joint venture partners.
The Kimberley Land Council (KLC) has been representing traditional owners in talks with Woodside and the WA Government over the proposed James Price Point LNG precinct. Over 200 TOs have signed a declaration claiming the KLC has no right to negotiate on their behalf.
Dissident traditional owner Neil McKenzie says he will do whatever it takes to stop the development. “There are a lot of issues that are of concern to us and we will challenge them in whatever way, if it’s legally or whatever other challenge we can find we will use,” he said.
Disgruntled at KLC, WAs Department of State Development and Barnetts modus operandi, the true owners who are opposed met with Browse Basin joint venture partners to inform them that the propaganda continually alleged by both the state and KLC, that this proposal is supported by the traditional people is totally misleading. (This issue is really about Land Rights vs Human Rights and I will elaborate of this topic in the New Year)
There have been several calculated feints, highlighted with theatrical performances like the reprehensible illegal signing of the Heads of Agreement at James Price Point and more recently the signing off on Heritage Protection. Genealogy for this Country is still sitting on the table.
How can anyone legally sign away anything, least of all negotiate a Indigenous Land Use Agreement, whilst the majority is still piecing together their blood connections to Country, dealing with all the regurgitated sorry business that is coming with it and trying to manage the knowledge of it all.
Apparently, all the joint venture partners were generally very surprised to hear that the majority of Indigenous people from this Country do not want this development. It was explained that many people have very strong heritage ties and cultural responsibilities for the maintenance, care and protection of Country.
In the coming New Year we will restate and action our commitment to saving James Price Point for the people and for the planet. We will continue to express our concerns about the highly questionable approval processes being employed and the current negotiations and social and environmental damages assessments that are currently being white washed for publication.
The state government is the proponent for this project; the state government decides which boxes to tick, the state government employs and pays the researchers and consultants to tick the boxes and the state government will approve all the ticks and will forward on, to get that one last big tick from the Minister Garrett.
We are all ticked off!
