I'm writing to express my grave concern about Bill 4, which will cancel the cap and trade program without replacing it with any sort of climate plan.

I want Ontario to remain prosperous, democratic and openly engaged with the rest of the world, even as climate change intensifies and rapid change becomes unavoidable.

I object to the passing of Bill 4. The repeal of the Ontario Cap and trade program without first providing a better and stronger alternative is harmful and counter productive.

Here is what Cap and Trade’s cancellation, without a meaningful alternative to meet Paris Agreement standards means to me:
My own health, safety and property is in continued danger from pollution, record lethal heatwaves, flooding and forest fires.

1)Multiple scientific studies by highly reputable scientists have come out this summer warning that we are farther along the path towards runaway global warming than has been recognized by the International Panel on Climate Change.

Ensure all cap and trade money is accounted for, made public and transparent, and is spent in a timely fashion on energy related benefits and rebates for the people.....or just bring back most of the old rebate programs.
This legislation is driven by ideology and is reckless. It wastes taxpayers’ money spent on developing a program to reduce carbon emissions, without any consultation or proposals for a better plan. Taxpayers will end up paying legal fees and penalties the government has failed to estimate.

Since 2010, Citizens’ Climate Lobby Canada has been advocating for carbon fee and dividend: an incrementally rising price on carbon pollution where 100% of the fees collected are returned to citizens.

I had the opportunity to hear our Environmental Commissioner Dr. Dianne Saxe last night (October 3, 2018) in Sarnia, Ontario. She explained that this new bill (Bill 4) has no teeth and will do nothing to fight Climate Change. She also spoke very positively about the existing Cap and Trade System.

Repealing cap and trade is the wrong decision for Ontario, and the wrong decision for the world. Premier Doug Ford's actions in repealing this program are nothing short of cowardly, and show his merit as an individual who is unwilling to stand up and do the right thing in the face of protest.

I am against cancelling a Cap and Trade system, a system that works, and instead proposing to 'plan to have a working plan in place (at some point in time)'.
This is such a terrible decision and I don't understand the logic behind it at all. The Ford government doesn't even have a climate plan at this point, so why dismantle a system that's already in place? Oh right, because it was implemented by the Liberals so must be repealed.

The funds that were used for important upgrades to school and other buildings, rebates for electric cars and support for innovation would be wiped out by cancelling Ontario's Cap and Trade system. There would also be job loss for contractors.

I am 28 years old and extremely concerned about climate change. The seasons keep getting warmer, with each year breaking a new heat record. And this trend shows no sign of stopping.

Please, do not dismantle our Cap and Trade program. This program has already shown that it is effective and powerful at stimulating an economy that is based on sustainability and a better future for humanity.
