Transforming Toronto

The petition

PETITION

To the Legislative Assembly of Ontario:

WHEREAS the proposed East Toronto Transmission Line (ETTL) may make people sick, will drive down property values, and will not beautify our neighbourhoods or the city of Toronto;

AND WHEREAS the ETTL has a projected cost of $600 million;

AND WHEREAS every dollar spent on energy conservation gives the same payback as five dollars spent generating new energy;

AND WHEREAS locally-generated green power must be part of our planet’s future;

We, the undersigned, petition The Ontario Legislative Assembly as follows:

THAT THE MINISTER OF ENERGY issue a legal directive ordering the Ontario Power Authority (OPA) to cease all work on the proposed East Toronto Transmission Line (ETTL); issue a legal directive ordering the OPA to invest the $600 million earmarked for the ETTL in energy conservation, energy efficiency, and green power options; and to take both these steps immediately.
