FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
May 3, 2016
Premier refuses to hold minister to account for SAMS disaster
(Queen’s Park) – The Premier needs to hold her Minister of Community and Social Services to account
for the disaster with the Social Assistance Management System (SAMS), says Perth-Wellington MPP
Randy Pettapiece.
Pettapiece, who serves as the minister’s opposition critic, demanded to know why the Premier has not
fired Minister Helena Jaczek for her role in the flawed launch of SAMS. The system remains a source
of frustration for caseworks and social assistance recipients.
“The Premier and the minister have offered no apology,” said Pettapiece during question period.
“Moreover, the Premier has done nothing to restore anyone’s trust in her and her government. Why
hasn’t she fired her minister?”
SAMS was launched in November 2014, and wreaked havoc on the social assistance system.
According to a report issued by the Auditor General of Ontario, SAMS had 2,400 serious system
defects and led to $140 million in benefit calculation errors.
“Does the Premier believe that IBM – the software company responsible for SAMS – did a good job?”
asked Pettapiece.
Pettapiece’s question comes on the heels of the announcement that the government has awarded IBM
a $32 million contract to service SAMS.
“The Liberals are rewarding IBM with millions of taxpayer dollars to service the same flawed software
this company created,” said Pettapiece. “If you ask me, that’s a blatant disregard of accountability.”
The Premier refused to comment on Jaczek’s mishandling of SAMS, and went so far as to claim that
the IBM contract has “nothing to do with the transition to SAMS or addressing the issues that arose
during the initial transition…”
“This government is completely out of touch with reality,” said Pettapiece. “Companies are being
rewarded for implementing seriously flawed systems, and ministerial responsibility seems to be a thing
of the past.
“It’s time the Minister of Community and Social Services resigns for this mess. The Premier should
demand nothing less.”

North Perth Day Care Staff
Background:
The North Perth Day Care presently has 18 employees (FTE 12.47). Of the 18
employees, only the Child Care Manager, Program Coordinator and 3 Registered Early
Childhood Educators (RECE’s) are full time salaried positions. After the retirement of
two full time RECEs, a decision was made to not replace these Staff with full time
positions. These positions have been filled with contract Staff based on the uncertainty
of enrolment and the need to operate without a deficit. The contract Staff have provided
Management with the ability to staff the programs according to the number of children
enrolled in the programs.
Comments:
On September 6th, 2016, the Day Care will be operating at our new North Perth-Spinrite
Child and Family Centre location. An additional 10 Infants, 8 Preschool children and one
more School-age Program of 13 children will be added to our Licence capacity. We will
be required to increase Staffing to meet this new demand. The Day Care has operated
at a 90% utilization rate for the past two years remaining at a positive financial position
at the end of each year. For these reasons, I deem it appropriate to offer 4 full time
RECE positions to the present Child Care Staff.
Financial Implications:
(Include amounts and funding source)
The financial impact on the Budget will be the additional cost of benefits for these
positions.
Recommendation:
THAT:
The North Perth Human Resources Committee proceed with a recommendation to offer
4 full time RECE positions (internally) to be effective September 1st, 2016;

Summary and Background
A vibrant and growing community, the Municipality of North Perth offers the best of rural and small
urban environments. With over 12,600 residents and 300 businesses, North Perth is a desirable setting
in which to live, work and visit and is a regional hub for business. Located in the northern reaches of
Perth County, in the heart of Southwestern Ontario, North Perth is comprised of the communities of
Atwood, Listowel, Monkton, Elma Ward and Wallace Ward.
The Municipality was formed in 1998 as a result of the amalgamation of the Town of Listowel, Wallace
Township, and Elma Township. The Municipality is a combination of small urban centres and
agricultural rural landscape. North Perth is a Community of Character, with an overall record of growth
and prosperity.
The 2011 Statistics Canada Census found an overall population increase of 3.1% in part due to the many
businesses, recreation, healthcare and educational amenities. The close proximity to KitchenerWaterloo is also a factor in municipal growth.
Like all small rural and urban municipalities, the Municipality of North Perth faces considerable budget
constraints and infrastructure deficits.
It has been over fifteen (15) years since a Recreational Needs Study was done. As our community
continues to grow, an assessment of our recreation and parks services will help provide guidance for
future development and redevelopment.
For more information about the Municipality of North Perth, please go to www.northperth.ca.

Elma/Logan Parking Lot Project
Background:
Many areas of the original paved sections of the parking lot have large cracks within
the existing asphalt. Other areas are improperly graded creating excessive valleys and
poor drainage. Both of these issues can contribute to public safety in terms of trips, slips
and falls resulting in increased liability to the municipality.
Included within the 2014 Capital was $45,000 for Parking Lot Paving at the Elma/Logan
Recreation Complex. It was quickly discovered that many other issues need be
addressed before funds are used for paving. These include complete regrading,
drainage systems, lighting, topsoil below existing parking areas, trees, and poor
condition of existing asphalt.
BM Ross Engineers have worked with us to complete a design which will address all of
the above issues. The Elma Logan Arena & Park Committee has also endorsed the
removal of trees to create better parking and drainage in this area.
Working with the Elma Logan Recreation Complex Committee, we have proposed
breaking this into a 3 year project due to the high cost to complete all required work.
Comments:
Tenders for the below grade service works were opened publicly on Tuesday May 3,
2016 with 3 tenders being received through E-bids.
BM Ross has reviewed all bids for accuracy with the recommendation to proceed with
the lowest bid of $87,999.50 plus HST from Hanna & Hamilton Construction.
The Elma Logan Recreation Complex Committee met on May 5th and have approved a
motion recommending North Perth Council accept the tender submitted by Hanna &
Hamilton Construction for this project.
Financial Implications:
We have allocated $90,100 within the 2016 Capital Projects Budget for this portion of
the Parking Lot Project plus $8,500 for engineering.
