Doug Ford ran on a promise to keep Ontario open for business, but his government’s first piece of legislation, "The White Pines Wind Project Termination Act", would terminate this project that has been nearly 10 years in the making, at a cost of over $100 million to taxpayers. At a time when the world is transitioning to renewable energy, this act would kill opportunities for future green energy investment, further put the climate at risk, and cost Ontario taxpayers millions spent destroying a nearly completed project.

Doug Ford ran his campaign on the promise that his government is ‘for the people’. Let’s see some evidence of that by allowing the White Pines Wind Project to be fully utilised as it was intended, and by encouraging further green energy development in Ontario.

Ontario accounts for a massive percentage of Canada's greenhouse gas emissions, so we must do everything we can now to reduce that. Our children's future depends on it.
