The only reason you need to go is if you are objecting to the motion or want some input as to the new date. There may be dates put forward that don't fit with your scheduled appointments.
If you want any input you need to go.

Re: How long is too long to wait for a trial? *Hand held device*
The thing about disclosure is that you have to actively seek it out once you've requested it. You can't just request it and not pick it up, or just not query where it is. And if you keep "kicking this thing down the road" the delay to trial is against you and not the prosecution.

Re: Disclosure - Front of ticket not provided, only rear?
It doesn't matter. Generally court dates are assigned for when the officer is working to save $$. On an off day a typical appearance at court will be time and a half overtime with a minimum amount of time generally around 4 hours. Court appearances for officers are subpoenas. They hVe to show up or face some consequences.

Re: Disclosure - Front of ticket not provided, only rear?
It's very common for officers to attend court on days off. I'll second what greasespot posted. Miss court and you're likely to get written up for a first offence. Charged under the PSA after that and loss of time certainly.

Re: Disclosure - Front of ticket not provided, only rear?
A no show is a very rare thing now. Police officers get paid to be in court, either on a regular day shift or even on overtime on a day off. So bless you know that this officer has tickets for a flight that morning I would t be betting on a no show.
From what you've posted so far I don't see any grounds to have this dismissed outright.

Re: Disclosure - Front of ticket not provided, only rear?
First point would be, if you decide to fight this 10 over ticket, at trial the prosecutor will have the ticket amended up to the original speed. Second point about the colour being wrong on you permit, that's actually an offence in itself. Get it changed. Three, A photocopy of both sides of a permit is perfectly legal. All that "other stuff" is ...

Re: Disclosure - Front of ticket not provided, only rear?
Also, in an Ontario Court of Appeal decision, an officer can amend a ticket after service in some cases.
Even if there's a slight difference between the original and your copy it's likely immaterial.
Check out York v Wadood on Canlii.

Re: R.R.O. 1990, REGULATION 615 : SIGNS - Confusing Language?
You may be over thinking this. It basically states that "if" the prescribed speed of 50 in a municipality or 80 in a rural ares are deviated from, then the speeds designated must be posted within those measurements.
There is still no requirement to post 50 or 80 zones in their correct areas.

Re: Called to pay speeding ticket and was told they didn't have it on file.
You might want to check again. The day you received the ticket doesn't count as part of the seven days. They actually had until the end of the 29th to file.

Re: 82 in a 60, but ticket says incorrect district
You're pretty much out of luck. The Provincial Offences Act provides that a proceeding may be heard in a county or district that adjoins that in which the offence occurred.
See section 29 of the POA if you want to read it in its entirety.

As a novice driver, your licence will be suspended for 30 days if you're convicted of a four demerit point offence. This might be something to consider!

Re: Failure to Stop: 136(1) "a" but looks like a "c" to those I've shown the ticket to
The position of the stop sign is immaterial. All the matters is you didn't stop at the marked stop line as it states you shall in HTA section 136(1)(a).
Whether it's an a or c is also immaterial. You are aware of why you were stopped and what the charge is. This is not a fatal flaw..
Best you can do at the moment is, if you want to put the effort ...
