I would like to express my concern and opposition to the cancellation of the cap and trade with no clear path forward for Ontario's climate change policy future.

Please do not scrap this piece of legislation! If the current government does not like what the Liberals have done, a better way is to amend it. We NEED to take strong action on climate change! NOW! I can see every day of my life that this is the biggest issue facing our times.

I strongly encourage the Ontario Conservative government to start to think wholistically and long term. Saving people money through tax cuts and cuts to essential programs will do no one any good in the long run.

I believe that repealing this act is irresponsible. As a Geography student at Trent University I am aware of the processes that enhance global warming and the measures needed to be put in place to slow down those processes.

What planet will Ontario legislators move to, when Earth becomes uninhabitable? After the hottest summer in living memory, we need to redouble our efforts to combat climate change, not abandon them. Cap & Trade isn't the best solution, but it's much better than nothing.
Hands off cap and trade! Stop your assault on the environment. This summer was another one of record-breaking heat and destructive storms. It will get worse. It will cost the government a lot of money - I say that because I know it's all you care about.

Climate change is accelerating and we are witnessing the increasing impacts of a more volatile planet. Experts overwhelmingly agree that global warming is caused by humans and burning fossil fuels will continue to accelerate and intensify climate disasters.

I believe in global warming and if we really care about our children and grandchildren we need to do something about it. Canceling cap and trade program and not replacing it with carbon tax is not the wise decision in my opinion.

Cap and trade programs are powerful tools for punishing polluting corporations, and putting money back in the hands of taxpayers. I am disappointed to see that Ontario is considering cancelling this program.
Scientists at the international level are giving us two years to get Paris right or we will have to take much more aggressive measures and may possibly be past the tipping point on exponential climate change.

Energy Conservation is good for business profitability as well as for society & the environment. Without it, Ontario's businesses are at a competitive disadvantage with respect to their peers.

I am shocked that the government would repeal this very minimal effort to fight climate change which has been well demonstrated to have a positive impact.

We need the Cap and Trade system to incentivise Green sector job creation in Ontario and to offset green house gas emissions. Please reconsider dropping this short-sighted, poorly conceived Cap and Trade Cancellation Act which had no consultation with citizens of Ontario.
It is vital Ontariens continue to participate in the Cap and Trade program. DO NOT SCRAP IT! Our children’s children are depending on us to make the right decisions NOW to ensure they will live in a healthy, sustainable environment.

Keep the cap and trade system or institute a carbon tax, but rebate the revenue back to Ontarians.
The rebate could be an offsetting reduction in the provincial portion of HST. This would stimulate the economy by benefitting everyone.
I implore the government to reconsider cancelling the Cap and Trade Act. It is our duty as citizens of this country and of this earth to protect the environment and to limit businesses large contribution to climate change.
As Ontario’s environmental watchdog has warned, “Dismantling a climate change law that was working is bad for our environment, bad for our health, and bad for business...

Regarding the cancellation of the Cap and Trade program I disagree with this proposal. The program has been working for over a year now and I believe the public has fully absorbed the very small price increases to products that increase carbon pollution. I know I have.
