Natural gas still emits quite a lot of CO2. If the goals are to drastically reduce our greenhouse gas emissions in Ontario, it would be wise for the incentives go directly towards zero emission vehicles such as electric power and/or hydrogen power vehicles.
the trucking industry hasn't even recovered from the last surge of emission saving science experiments
All trucks from 2008 to present are all lemons
The technology hasn't even been invented yet Caterpillar is still in courts over all that emission experimental technology
In light of the devastating hurricanes, floods, and forest fires destroying parts of the world, it is imperative that we get gas/diesel vehicles off the road everywhere. A low-carbon future is not negotiable.
Would the Ministry clarify what types of subsidies will be available for installing CNG infrastructure and would there be additional subsidies for fueling other company's vehicles at the facility?
I have reviewed the Draft CGVP 2.6 document and my comments would be that the rebate for anti-idling devices installed by a certified technician should be 50% of cost of device and installation.

For 95 years, Canadian Tire Corporation has provided customers with everything they need for the Jobs and Joys of Life in Canada. No other company understands the needs of Canadians quite like Canadian Tire. We are Canada’s store, and it’s a responsibility we do not take lightly.
The Town of Oakville supports the development of a Green Vehicle Commercial Program that would provide financial incentives and rebates for the purchase of commercial fleet green technology.
Thanks for taking the time to meet with us yesterday. Walmart Canada is very excited about this program and believe it can be a great catalyst towards reducing our emissions in Ontario.
It is encouraged that MTO:
- provide many low-carbon fuel types such as hydrogen and biofuel to boost program participation and overcome significant limitations to refueling stations

This is a complete waste of taxpayer money. You should not do this. Isn't our debt and deficit high enough already?
These technologies need to stand for themselves. They either make sense economically or they don't. The government should not be subsidizing this.
