I am calling on the government to take immediate action to reduce our emissions and formulate a plan for adapting to a changing climate. Bill 4 is absolutely NOT the way to go - it totally fails to match the urgency of the climate crisis we face, and represents a major step backward in the fight against climate change.
It is ridiculous (and I would daresay criminal!) to eliminate the province’s only climate plan without being transparent with the public about the plan to replace it. In addition, Bill 4 closes Ontario for business to the $26 trillion global clean economy and will have a negative effect on clean jobs and investment.
A credible climate plan would include binding targets to shift Ontario towards being 100% carbon neutral by 2050, supported by specific measures in the areas of energy efficiency, home and building heating, transportation, electricity, and climate adaptation.
Please think - really think - about this. Make the right decision, I beg you!
