I am deeply disappointed in…

I am deeply disappointed in the Ontario Government’s decision to pass Bill 4, which would cancel cap and trade, without providing any alternative climate policies. Climate change is the greatest threat to our survival and it is imperative that our province have a plan in place to address the challenges facing us.

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 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.
I want legally binding emissions targets in line with our obligations to the Paris Climate Agreement.
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.

Our province cannot afford to ignore the threats of a changing climate. You can be champions or you can continue to bury your heads in the sand.
