Administration be requested to report back on this Administrative Inquiry no later than Q2 2020 after having:

  • Researched and consulted with the Government of Canada, the Calgary Jewish Federation and other direct stakeholders and experts to determine the merits and value of the City of Calgary adopting the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) non-legally binding working definition of ‘antisemitism’;
  • Analyzed risks and options for implementing the non-legally binding working definition of ‘antisemitism’; and
  • Determined if formal Council direction is required.

In attachment 5a of our 2020 budget adjustment documents there is a line item representing a $3M transfer to the Douglasdale/McKenzie Slopes project.

  1. What is the value of the work that has been done to date and estimated cost at completion of the work?
  2. Can Administration return to Council no later than Q1, 2020 to provide an in-camera update of the project authorized by Council in the Douglasdale McKenzie Slope Report (TT2015-0816) with consideration and recommendations as to what of the report or attachments can be made public immediately following the project update?

How does the City Clerk’s Office manage the protocol for Deputy Mayor responsibilities during the designated months for individual Councillors? Specifically:

  • Who are the key contacts for the monthly designated Deputy Mayor and the City Clerk’s Office, the Mayor’s Office, the City Manager and City Administration on the need for Deputy Mayor representation at events?
  • Who advises the monthly Deputy Mayor of the need for a formal proclamation at an event which they are attending as Deputy Mayor?
  • Who advises the monthly Deputy Mayor of the Mayor’s absence from Calgary?
  • Who advises City Administration such as CEMA, the City Manager’s Office, and Media Relations of the Mayor’s absence from Calgary?
  • Who holds responsibility to work together in advance with the monthly Deputy Mayor’s office to give an overview of what may be needed from the Deputy Mayor?

If no protocol is in place for the above, what would be the process to create one so that monthly Deputy Mayors have the necessary information to perform their duties, are aware of the Mayor’s absence from Calgary in case of an emergency situation, and have certainty around how the Mayor’s Office will communicate with them regarding the need for City representation on behalf of the Mayor?
