We need an environmental bill of rights immediately and to ensure that incentives and investment

I am very concerned about the future -

Nuclear fossils are too dangerous. The law of statistics makes accidents bound to happen sooner or later with devastating consequences. As example Tjernobil will be inhabitable the next 20,000 years!

Refurbishing Ontario's nuclear plants will cost residents of this province billions of dollars. This money can be spent on research and development of renewable energy resources.

I want Ontario to shift away from fossil fuel energy sources.

I have seen my electricity rates sky rocket all because of government miss manage. The people in the province tried to get the message across wind and solar power is not cheap nor clean. We spent millions on lawyers only to have the federal government out trump us AKA green energy act.

We need to start down the path towards a 100% renewable Ontario, and that starts with closing the aging and dangerous Pickering plant on the edge of the GTA.  We need to act in a responsible way for the benefit of all.

Is anybody listening, does anybody care. As a senior I wonder what kind of energy will be affordable.

The time to move radically away from fossil fuel energy production is now.  The last ditch position held by the petroleum industry merely puts off the inevitable - to the detriment of the environment.  Any intelligent company or administration would be easing itself out of coal/oil depe

We really need to stop fossil fuel use as much as possible.  I have 10 solar panels and a solar thermal so feel I am playing a good part .

Now even more than ever Canada must stand for clean, renewable energy. What is taking place south of us is horrifying. We have been slow but now let's put our research and development to work, our finest minds and resolve to show another way, a sane way.

Nuclear power has been the backbone of Ontario's power grid for several decades, and should continue to be for the foreseeable future. The power is low cost, carbon-free, and reliable. Both OPG and Bruce Power are incredible corporate citizens that make their respective communities much better.

We need to be leaders in reversing global warming so we can leave our children a safe place to live their lives. If we are smart, and don't just cling to what we know, we can also use this change as an opportunity to revitalize our stagnant economy. We have a moral responsibility to do this.

We must aim for 100% renewable, clean energy in the near future.

We are causing great harm to our planet, our only home.

I am a strong believer in the contribution nuclear power can make to our greenhouse gas problem.  I therefore not only endorse continuing Ontario's nuclear program, but I also believe it should be expanded to the extent practicable.

Climate change is the most urgent issue facing the planet and strong leadership is required to slow down its progress. Phasing out our reliance on fossil fuels is essential to help achieve this goal.

Bruce Power provides safe, reliable power at a fair price. They are community minded and supported. CANDU power is the way to go.

Hello.  I am an Ontario resident who is concerned about our province’s energy future, and I would like to see our government shift our course away from dirty and dangerous nuclear and fossil fuels towards a 100% renewable future.

Thanks.

I hope the government will be responsible enough to move away from fossil and nuclear fuels and finally implement policies that are sustainable in the long run.

Well, it's obvious that any long-sighted view dictates that clean energy is essential if we are to have a future on this planet. Period.

Your consultation questions are a joke! We need renewable energy sources like wind and solar while we get away from fossil fuels, coal and dangerous nuclear power. However, the deals the Liberals engaged in are insane.
