I want a real climate change plan to reduce emissions, help people save energy and create jobs in the $26 trillion clean economy. I want Ontario to be a world leader in innovation. We need to commit to new things instead of falling back to the old ways.

I want Ontario to put a price on pollution, making polluters pay for their emissions and returning the revenues to the pockets of Ontarians so they can lower their carbon footprint. This is like a pay per use fee. Pollution has a big impact on our health. We could take the money towards healthcare improvements.

I want legally binding emissions targets in line with our obligations to the Paris Climate Agreement. We made a commitment - let’s stick with it.

I want Ontario to be 100% powered by clean energy by 2050.

I want Ontario to end subsidies and handouts for fossil fuel companies and redirect this money to clean energy solutions. These companies have enough money. Again, let’s put the money towards new tech, innovators and entrepreneurs.
