We have just seen the UN report that we (Canada and the rest of the world) are falling behind on our commitments to keep global warming to 1.5C - and weather is reminding us more and more frequently that the direct consequences for humans are significant, withoutconsidering the indirect impacts via

Please do not pass this bill. We need to be doing everything we can to REDUCE pollution that changes our climate. Please reference the current Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report.
Time is short. Everything must be done that will help save our future and our children's future.
In the week that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released their special report on the magnitude and complexity of the climate change challenge and highlighted the imperative of urgent and coordinated action, it is utterly appalling that this Ontarion government intends to undo this imp

Cap and Trade should absolutely NOT be cancelled. It is an extremely important tool to battle climate change. If you want to add further tools to the arsenal, by all means, but canceling Cap and Trade would be detrimental to Ontario 's future.
What will convince you that we need to act quickly to avoid irreversible damage to our planet? Is the IPCC report not enough proof?

Have you read the recent report by the IPCC? Even if you disagree with the method (and it seems like a carbon tax really is reasonably effective) why would you not run with it? Do any of you have children? I often lay awake at night, worrying about the future I'm leaving mine.

I am writing on behalf of myself and my family as a concerned citizen, and I am absolutely devastated that a government that claims to be "for the people" can so blatantly disregard hard won regulations as Cap and Trade that are at least intending to protect the future of our planet and to develop a

Cancelling the climate change and the cap and trade is the worse thing you could do ever. This impacts jobs in this sector and this sector is the future. All over the world new and cleaner ways of developing energy is rising.

Doug Ford seems to love wasting taxpayers' money. Cancelling cap and trade (which as we all know is NOT and never was a "carbon tax") will result in unwinnable lawsuits which will be paid with public funds, and some kind of climate plan will be forced on Ontarians by the Federal government anyway.

I strongly object to the cancellation of cap and trade. With climate change forecasts showing dire circumstances that threaten the well-being of human life on earth we are at a moment in history when it is essential that we take steps to drastically reduce carbon emissions.

I am opposed to having the Cap and Trade Bill scrapped without having a clear and measurable plan for how we as a province are taking concrete steps to mitigate the very negative impact that climate change is having and will continue to have on us in this province, this country and beyond.

I am opposed to the cancellation of the Cap and Trade program in Ontario. I strongly believe that we must put a price on carbon (and FINALLY DID!) to avoid irreversible climate change.

One of Ontario's 4 annual carbon credit auctions generated $400+ million in revenues mandated for spending only on GHG emission reducing projects, like EV chargers and geothermal systems at public buildings. Ontario was abuzz with green industry and innovation.

Please reconsider continuing the Cap & Trade program on behalf of future generations.
The world is already experiencing the effects of pollution.
Clean air is important for our survival.
Thank you,

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 am writing to speak against Bill 4, Cancellation of the Cap and Trade program. Just this week the Nobel prize for economics was awarded to Paul Romer and William Nauhaus for their work related to the economic costs of climate change.
