Relying heavily on gas and nuclear is a big risk for Ontario’s energy grid.
But wind, solar and battery storage can help diversify energy generation, creating more resilience and security – while also lowering hydro bills.

In a world demanding low-carbon energy, an oil pipeline is a risky multi-billion-dollar, multi-decade gamble.
And without strengthened industrial carbon pricing, a new pipeline would continue to increase oilsands emissions — even with the Pathways carbon capture project.
