Please do not scrap the cap and trade. It took years and a lot of money to develop and climate change is the biggest challenge facing humankind right now. We need to do everything we can to reduce emissions before it’s too late.
For the life of me I can't understand why you would strike down a law that has been shown to be effective at driving down emissions without having another plan ready to go. I think our Premier is a buffoon.

Stooooopid idea. I'm sure premier ford will eventually understand the foolishness of his actions. If not he then perhaps his grandchildren. I am definitely opposed to this action. Thank you for allowing me to comment.
To the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks,
First of all, thank you for your time and attention on this item, and the ability to comment publicly on the proposed legislation.

What are you doing ? we have no more time fooling around for the love of go !. Stop playing politics and do something about our fragile environment. Show some real leadership. I guarantee that your government will be tossed out in 4 years time unless you stop emulating the trump administration.

Over the past decade, Ontario has invested significantly in developing the competitive advantage of producing 96% of its electricity from non-emitting sources. Our electric energy is cleaner than most other province's, cleaner than EVERY US state's and cleaner than almost every other country's.

You have got this all backwards. You need to cancel Bill 4, and keep the Cap and Trade market in Ontario. Is there some reason we don't want clean air and reduced carbon emissions in Ontario?
I am very concerned with this bill being passed. Carbon emissions are a serious issue, I am concerned for my son's future if they continue to go unchecked. The cap and trade may cost more to ontarians but we either pay now or pay later when food sources are decimated by climate change.

As a resident and voter in Ontario, I strongly oppose Bill 4. Please dont let Doug Ford continue to push agendas and policies that will set us back 30 years and prevent progress and innovation in an ever changing world including our rapidly changing climate.

I am not at all supportive of Bill 4, signalling the cancellation of the Cap and Trade program, for the following reasons:
1. Cap and Trade works to reduce emissions, and if anything the amount should be increased well beyond the $10 fee established

Climate change is one of the key challenges of our times and Ontario has been a leader in the efforts to address this problem. Repealing the cap and trade program would be a grave mistake and take us backwards on climate policy at a time when urgency and progress are what is needed.

Getting rid of the carbon tax is irresponsible and reckless. By doing so you allow big polluters to continue on without consequence. I understand the idea behind getting rid of the program is to save the tax payers money, but at what cost?

On October 8, 2018 the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released a report warning of the effects of climate warming 1.5C above pre-industrial levels.

At a time when the IPCC warns of accelerating warming because of increased CO2 in the atmosphere it is heinous that you abolish pollution reduction with Bill 4. Ontario must put a price on pollution, making polluters pay for their emissions and so safeguard our health.

To the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks,
Thank you for the opportunity to contribute to this important consultation on the future of Ontario’s climate plan.

We know from the recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report that we are dangerously close to crossing the catastrophic 1.5C tipping point that would lead to runaway climate change.

Why Ford's Bill 4 is insufficient:
- Bill 4 fails to match the urgency of the climate crisis and represents a major step backward in the fight against climate change.

Reject Bill 4 . If you don't believe in Climate Change just watch the news.
Tell Ford and the Lobbyists behind him to pull their heads out of the sand.
