As an Ontarian with children and grandchildren, I want the province to ensure every citizen has the right to clean air, land and water, not just for now but with protection that will not change with political change. I want to see our lakes and rivers similarly protected.
The government should actively persue decentralization of the electricity grid so that individuals and communities can feed in renewable energy and Ontario as a whole can move toward a renewable energy based grid. This would include facilitating replacing diesel with wind and solar power up
In November 2014 the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives-BC hosted a very thoughtful and solutions-oriented conference entitled A Good Jobs Economy in BC. Fifteen papers were presented, and almost all have been posted online.
Ontario's energy future had better be based upon an aggressive energy conservation program coupled with extensive use of the many green energy options available to us in this Province.
We have a vital responsibility to the shaping of the environment for all life in years to come. It is completely irresponsible to shirk that duty by not implementing a fully fossil-fuel free economy.
It is now time for all of us and Canada and Ontario and switch to renewable energy. In flight of the most recent scientific reports our selfishnesss and irrisponsible arriride towards energy consumption is leading the planet earth and all habitatnts to a complete distraction. Millions
It's very simple. Canada is a first world nation. We should be leaders in environmental issues and solutions, as well as affordable and renewable resources and energy. The fact that we are not should be an undeniable embarrassment!
Beloved Gaia -- Mother Earth -- deserves our respect and love, as She is a LIVING entity and has endured far too much because of our (humanity's) misuse, abuse etc. for eons of time!

Nature is speaking to us every moment of the day! Why aren't we listening?
It's time we all start listening from our hearts, not our conditioned minds!

Green energy is the future. Fossil fuels have got us in the scenario we're in today. Nuclear-powered create waste that is not disposable at this time.

Why isn't our government pursuing 100% renewable energy.
Instead of refurbishing the outdated reactors (40 years old) at Pickering, we should be spending the capital on renewable energy sourcing!
This I will support with my vote!
