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.

None of the above goals will be achieved by passing the proposed legislation. What do you plan to replace it with? More benefits to industry and greater latitude for polluters to pollute without consequence? Please think about the planet's future. If we are to have a future at all, the time to act is now. Please find another way to line the pockets of your donors, and yourselves.
