As a young adult, I am extremely disappointed that this government is proposing to cancel the cap and trade scheme without any reasonable replacement climate change policy.

The Ford government’s ideas about climate change are antiquated and heavily biased towards greater revenues from existing, unsustainable energy resource extraction.

Doug Ford does not have the right to oppose climate change measures. If he has a better measure than the carbon tax, he should make it known. His government is merely being obstructionist . We need RESPONSIBLE government.

Carbon pricing works. The evidence is there and it is solid. Not only does it reduce carbon outputs but it also has been shown to provide economic benefits to 4 Canadian provinces where it has been operating. Fee and Dividend programs work. Canada has made its commitment to the Paris Agreement.

it is with deep concerns regarding Bill 4 and abolition of Cap and Trade program that I write this message. while evidence of climate change is all around us it is difficult to imagine that our provincial government is more committed to big and small business than to the environment.

This is slap-dash politicking and there is nothing of substance in this proposal. How are you going to recoup the lost taxes? Are you going to fix infrastructure for the province by selling tickets to your Unicorn exhibit?

I want legally binding emissions targets in line with our obligations to the Paris Climate agreement.
I want Ontario to put a price on pollution, making polluters pay for their emissions and the revenues to the pockets of Ontarians so they can lower their carbon footprint.
I am in complete disagreement with Bill 4. The solutions provided are not sufficient, the regulations should be enforced now to reduce the impact on our planet

Given the recent UN Article that has come out on climate change, suggesting that global temperatures are rising much quicker than anticipated and that it would take a much smaller rise in temperature to cause significant impacts on smaller island countries.

It is disingenuous to scrap Cap and Trade especially following the United Nations recent report on climate change and how governments have very little time to act on climate change before we experience global climate catastrophe.

The Ontario government should move ahead with the Cap and Trade system rather than throw it away. Starting all over with some new proposal will only delay desperately needed action on climate change.

I firmly believe that all citizens require climate change laws that include science based emission budgets, legal accountability to stay within these laws and a transparent process for measuring and reporting progress.

It is irresponsible to cancel the cap & trade program for simply political reasons. In light of the UN's recent report on climate change, how can a government go forward without a set climate change plan?

It is appalling that our government would change/remove policies put in place to protect the environment. With climate change getting worse every year this is the worst thing the government could do. We need to protect the environment. If we don't we won't have anywhere to go.

Before cancelling the existing climate change program and new program with new targets MUST be in place. It is not sufficient to say "The Government shall establish targets". Targets must be committed to in this document. It is also not sufficient to "establish targets".

Cancelling Cap and Trade is a betrayal - it is far more business-friendly than a flat carbon tax, which will be instituted in its stead. You will not beat the federal government's carbon tax mandate. Stick to Cap and Trade.
