The Ford government needs to stop proceedings with Bill 4. It is a disastrous environmental policy and a regressive step for Ontario. Ontario needs a real climate change plan to reduce emissions, help people save energy and create jobs in the $26 trillion clean economy. Read more

It is absolutely irresponsible to dismantle an established cap and trade program in Ontario. Humanity is not doing enough to limit our carbon emissions and polluters need to be guided to reductions through regulatory action not voluntary measures. Read more

As a proud citizen of Canada and a resident of Ontario, I strongly support a price on carbon and reject Bill C-94. A carbon price is the most effective way to address climate change as it allows a market driven solution to help reduce our greenhouse gas footprint. Read more

I am writing to express my displeasure and my opposition to Bill 4. Pursuant to Section 6, Bill 4 purports to retire or cancel all eligible instruments under the Climate Change Mitigation and Low-carbon Economy Act. This is highly irresponsible. Read more

I want you to continue with the Cap and Trade program because it was helping people. This program was helping vulnerable and low-income groups. Energy efficiency upgrades would help improve buildings for social housing projects and senior homeowners. Read more

Especially given that the current government is supposedly business/results oriented and supportive of market-based solutions, I am very disappointed that the repeal of this legislation is being pursued given its proven strengths and application of rational economic theory to achieve the absolutely Read more

My understanding of the motivation behind the proposal of Bill 4: Cap and Trade Cancellation Act, 2018, is that it was determined by the premiere of Ontario, Doug Ford, that the cap and trade system has no impact on the environment and that the cancellation of cap and trade system will lower gas pri Read more

I am going to grow old in the world you people are making. Seeing the disregard for environmental measures that are greatly needed is incredibly alarming. That these decisions are also economically unsound and short sighted only worsen the situation. Read more

I am deeply disturbed that the government is winding up a program that has widespread support among economists and other experts without providing evidence that it has any other effective means at its disposal to tackle the challenge of limiting our greenhouse gas emissions. Read more

I want Ontario to have a real climate change plan to reduce emissions, help people save energy and create jobs in the $26 trillion clean economy; not to carry on offering subsidies and handouts to fossil fuel companies, when this money could be redirected to clean energy solutions.

I am deeply, deeply concerned by the new government's proposal to repeal and wind down the province's climate-change mitigation legislation and plan. The *scientific* consensus on the dangers of anthropogenic climate change has been solidly established for decades. Read more
