Pierre Poilievre, Conservative: "With regard to the government's transfer of land to the Ottawa Hospital for the future site of the Civic Campus, known as the Sir John Carling Site or site No. 11: (a) what is the current status of the transfer of land to the Ottawa Hospital; (b) on what date does the government anticipate the land transfer will be complete; (c) did the Ottawa Hospital incur any costs as a result of delaying construction by a year; (d) if the answer to (c) is affirmative, what are the costs, and will the government reimburse the Ottawa Hospital;
(e) how many trees are there at site No. 11; (f) what buildings are currently at site No. 11, broken down by (i) name and address, (ii) purpose and current use; (iii) whether the building will be demolished or moved to another location; (g) what will be the total cost of preparing the site for the Civic Campus to be built; (h) what will be the additional cost specific to building the Civic at site No. 11, including (i) the cost of building on a sloped surface, (ii) the cost of being located near a fault line; (iii) the cost of removing or transplanting the trees referred to in (e), (iv) any other costs due to site No. 11's unique features, (i) which level of government will pay for the land preparation and additional costs noted in (g) and (h); (j) does the government have any estimates on the costs of preparing site No. 11 for a large institutional occupant and, if so, what are the details; (k) what is the market value of the land at site No. 11;
(l) what will be the rental rate or sale price of site No. 11 to the Ottawa Hospital; (m) which organization or level of government will pay for the at least $11.1 million in contamination remediation as estimated by Public Services and Procurement Canada; (n) is there any other contamination that needs to be remediated that is not captured in the $11.1 million figure; (o) if the answer to (n) is affirmative, what is the contamination and what is the expected remediation cost; (p) what design, cultural, esthetic, or architectural elements will the National Capital Commission require the Ottawa Hospital to incorporate into the hospital, and what will be the cost of those elements;
(q) will the federal government cover the costs of the elements referred to in (p); (r) has the government estimated the additional costs of constructing any building or structure on site No. 11, due to the nearby fault line and, if so, what are the costs; (s) what would have been the total cost of preparing the Central Experimental Farm site directly across the street from the current Civic Campus, known as either site No. 9 or site No. 10; (t) are there any known challenges associated with building on site No. 11 and, if so, what are they; and (u) does the government foresee any other factors specific to the Sir John Carling site that would increase costs or delay construction of the new hospital and, if so, what are they?"
(Reasons why the Farm was initially rejected as the location for a medical centre: the Farm is a National Interest Land Mass and a National Historic Site of Canada; there is no guarantee that the Dominion Observatory campus will be preserved; more than 500 trees will be clearcut; experiments conducted by Agriculture Canada scientists helped the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change win the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize, and the Arboretum and Ornamental Gardens will be negatively impacted by traffic and a loss of viewscapes. Also, the United Nations may remove the designation "UNESCO World Heritage Site" from the Rideau Canal if a medical facility is built near Dow's Lake. savecfbrockcliffe.)
