Mr Ford, we must have an environmental protection policy in Ontario. When companies are trying to increase their profits every month, they will not consider what they are doing to our air or our water. It is your job to protect these very important resources for the next generations.

We cannot continue to allow businesses and consumers to pollute the air for free, when the cost to our health, property and the sustainability of our future is so high.

I would prefer if the Ontario government would focus on protecting our citizens from the impact of pollutants. I believe that the best way to do this is to set,through legislation, meaningful targets in line with the Paris climate accord.

I want a real climate change plan to reduce emissions, help people save energy and create jobs in the $26 trillion clean economy. We can't use up resources and leave future generations with nothing. Penalties for pollution and emissions can fund green projects; it's not just a tax on the economy.

I support Cap and Trade and all the programs that were a result of the funds. The Ford government is all about putting money in taxpayers pockets and the study by Canadians for Clean Prosperity led by Mark Cameron is proof that carbon pricing will do exactly that.

Why not come up with an environmental plan before you get rid of Cap and Trade so there is some continuity for business to plan on in order to capitalize on changes.
While I didn't vote for Doug Ford, I did pay attention to some of his platform, and one thing he repeated many times was, he stands for the people - the little guy.

Repealing the cap and trade program is irresponsible. The environment needs our help, even if it costs us, now, rather than later. By using cap and trade we are trying to do our small part in reducing the release of carbon into the atmosphere.
We want Ontario to put a price on pollution, making polluters pay for their emissions and returning the revenues to supporting the Ontario economy while lowering our carbon footprint. We trust that Ontario will be 100% powered by clean energy by 2030.
Sincerely
I am NOT in favor of Premier Ford's decision to scrap the cap-and-trade program. I feel that decision was made without consultation with the people of Ontario, and is therefore undemocratic. We have an Environmental Bill of Rights for a reason.

I want legally binding emissions targets in line with our obligations to the Paris Climate Agreement.
I want Ontario to end subsidies and handouts for fossil fuel companies and redirect this money to clean energy solutions.

I don't believe this government is doing this as an act of environmental responsibility, but more as an emotional knee jerk reaction to a policy disagreed upon for pure ideology rather than fact.

We only have one atmosphere and if we destroy it there will be no one left to play politics.The more the atmosphere gets destroy the higher our healthcare bill will get,they go hand in hand.
I want Ontario to put a price on pollution, making polluters pay for their emissions and returning the revenues to the pockets of Ontarians so they can lower their carbon footprint. The cap and trade program should not be canceled before a replacement program is presented.

I am not an economist and therefore do not claim to know the best way of quickly and drastically reducing greenhouse gas emissions, whether by regulations, cap-and-trade or carbon pricing (aka "carbon tax").

A majority of economists have stated that a carbon tax is the most effective way to have a positive effect on climate change. Why are you changing this!?!? You are toying with our children's futures for political gain!
