The Ontario economy is coming under increasing threat as a result of actions taken by the previous provincial government, the current federal government and the political environment in the US.

As a citizen of Ontario what the PC government did was not in the best interest of the environment or us. The cap and trade was a good program. It kept businesses in check with their green house gas emissions and helped pay for programs to help out us...the citizens of Ontario!

As an Ontario resident and a Canadian I firmly believe that the Ontario Cap and Trade system was a valuable program and would over time help to reduce carbon emissions in the province.

I am currently living abroad for a year and then returning to reside back in Ontario in 2019. As a resident of Ontario, I would like to provide comments on the Bill 4, Cap and Trade Cancellation Act, 2018. I do not support the proposed retirement and cancellation of Cap and Trade.

I oppose Bill 4 The Cap and Trade Cancellation Act, 2018
Cap and Trade is an important part of pollution reduction. It may not be the solution, but it holds polluters accountable and funds programs for people and businesses to make their buildings more energy efficient.

Do not cancel the Cap & Trade Program. We need this program to help combat dangeroud climate disruption.
Real and rising costs are now being felt in two key areas: the economic and financial impact of increasingly severe weather, and the impact on public infrastructure.

One of THE most important issues facing our whole world is trying to prevent catastrophic climate change by drastically reducing our carbon footprint, and anyone who doesn't agree is simply living way back in the past, and is refusing to admit reality.

I support Bill 4. I believe there are other ways the government can protect the environment without resorting to even more taxes. It has been proven in other jurisdictions where cap and trade has been tried that it does nothing to lower CO2 emissions.
Thank you.
This Bill is totally wrong-headed. Cap-and-trade should not be scrapped until you have an alternative in place.
Ontario is turning its back to where its future is.

I strongly disagree with the proposed bill to repeal the CCMLEA, 2016. Cap and Trade is a device to curb emissions that are destructive to our environment and as such is a step toward participating in Climate Change initiatives worldwide.

If the Ontario government is going to wind down the Cap and Trade program, then it either needs to institute some other form of carbon pricing on fossil fuels and other products that produce carbon emissions, or start winding down other fossil fuel based power plants and encourage the development of

I am strongly opposed to the cancellation of Ontario's Cap and Trade system, which is a highly efficient way to reduce carbon emissions at the lowest cost, and to gain revenue to facilitate this transition so that it is economically beneficial for all in Ontario.

I am concerned about the cancellation of the cap and trade program. I was proud of Canada's commitment at the COP21 conference in Paris where we joined with most of the countries of the world to finally take the issue of climate change seriously.

Any credible climate change plan must include carbon pricing. If burning fossil fuels is costing society now and in the long term, this activity must be held to account through a price that reflects its true cost.
