I am a voter who is angry about the cancellation of the cap and trade program;
the Government of Ontario is responsible for the long-term well being of its citizens, and climate change threatens our safety;

I think it was a really unfortunate decision. I voted PC but this policy does not align with my values. I want my children to grow up in a world where they do not have to worry about breathing toxic air. Please reconsider this decision.
The Ontario Public Health Association (OPHA) is a member-based non-profit, non-partisan organization which has been providing an independent voice for public health for nearly 70 years.

I am devastated and truly embarrassed and ashamed of my province’s irresponsible lack of environmental action and concern. : \ Cap and trade was working effectively, providing jobs and energy savings through subsidized home improvements etc.

The cap and trade system should continue. Placing a price on carbon is the best approach for motivating the reductions in greenhouse gas emissions that are essential for securing our children's futures.
This week, leading climate scientists at the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change highlighted the urgency of current action to keep our planet’s temperature increase within a range that has a reasonable chance of preventing the worst impacts of climate change.

I oppose this bill. I believe it is deeply irresponsible, cowardly, and quite frankly stupid to oppose a market-based solution, particularly as the IPCC has stated that our window for avoiding disastrous climate change will close within the next 12 years.

I am GREATLY OPPOSED to Bill 4, Cap and Trade Cancellation Act, 2018. To disregard the impact that green house gas emissions have on our environment is indescribably irresponsible and senseless. The amount of research that has been executed is staggering.

The IPPC report released by the United Nations on Monday says that urgent action is necessary to avert catastrophic climate change.
William Nordhaus, co winner of the 2018 Nobel prize in Economics, has shown that carbon taxes are effective in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Summary
Bill 4 fails to match the urgency of the climate crisis and represents a major step backward in the fight against climate change.
It is unfair and unreasonable to eliminate the province’s only climate plan without being transparent with the public about the plan to replace it.

We should be enhancing climate change protection, not decimating it. Particularly at such a vital time. Particularly without another plan. Please don’t do this.
