Ontario has come a long way toward relying on renewable resources and now we need to go all the way. This target is eminently achievable and will cost less than other alternatives, especially nuclear which is outrageously expensive and is dangerous in the short, medium and long term.

Please have the courage to finish the job. The transition may be expensive but in the longer term will result in lower costs to the ordinary electricity consumer.

Now that Elon Musk has come out with a truly feasible roof-top solar roofing material and more reliable storage batteries, I believe we should be making incentives for everyone to be able to generate their own electricity. If they can selll the surplus into the system, so much the better in the short term, but getting out of the transmission line business would make for huge savings for everyone. Some European jurisdictions are making all new commercial construction include either solar rooftop electricity generation, or green roof tops (i.e. garden roof tops).

The urgency of moving to 100% renewables is absolute - or Planet Earth will be entirely un-inhabitable for our children's children. We are already well past any comfortable margin for indecision or loitering.

Please summon up the courage to forge ahead knowing you are doing the right thing.

Sincerely

Melia Helson
