I am a huge fan of renewables.

I loved the FIT program and installed 30 panels.

The line 9 / energy east pipeline is a terrible idea. Pipeline spills average > 500 a year. Bitumen (Tar Sands oil) sinks in water once the carcinogenic thinners evaporate so becomes virtually impossible to clean up. A billion dollars was spent trying to clean the Kalamazoo River in Michigan after the 2010 spill before they gave up. Let’s back off the pipeline thru critical water sourses. We can create jobs with renewables.and local farming.

Water consuming Industrial agriculture that is fossil fuel based (with chemical fertilizers and pesticides) should gradually be converted to its labour intensive more organic cousin. Organic ground and crops (contrary to Monsanto's lies) have higher production and absorb greenhouse gasses rather than producing them. Meat is the worst. Most of these products are for export.

thank you
