This is in regards to Bill 4, Cap & Trade Cancellation Act, 2018.

I ask what is the alternative plan to cancelling Cap & Trade? Your government has not provided any details of any alternative plan(s) to reduce carbon generation into our atmosphere.

This is a penny-wise pound-foolish act. By moving ahead with this act, the people of Ontario will be exposed to catastrophic costs. In the states, we have hurricanes Florence and Michael. In Ontario we had tornadoes in the Ottawa area. Toronto had 'hundred year' rain storms that overwhelmed the storm drain system not once but twice in recent years. What was the cost of repairing that GO Train that got stuck in the Don Valley? It was not disclosed in the public press but I am sure it was not trivial.

One of the main functions of government is to plan for the future to ensure sufficient resources are provided for.

The passage of Bill 4 will be a serious abdication of the Ontario Government's duty to the people of Ontario.

Go look at https://www.ontariopc.ca/plan_for_the_people What are the alternative to Cap & Trade? None mentioned!
