Please reject Bill 4 on the following grounds:

The consultation process for Bill 4 was insufficient
Bill 4 ignores the urgency of climate change - this is a real and pressing issue
Bill 4 closes Ontario for business to the clean economy - this is where the future of jobs lies, let's be trendsetters in the clean economy
Bill 4 gives little detail about a replacement plan - how can a bill be passed without sufficient details about the plan moving forward?
Bill 4 does not contain binding emissions targets - this is a must!
Bill 4 eliminates the most important policy tool: pollution pricing

The way forward: Recommendations for a credible climate plan
Adopt carbon fee and dividend
Focus on energy efficiency in homes and buildings
Electrify our transportation system
Support jobs and investment in the clean economy
Make our electricity system clean, affordable, and community-owned
Prepare Ontario for climate impacts

Please let's make Ontario a global leader in saving the environment for future generations.
