Climate Cliff, Fiscal Cliff

.  I’d like to focus on two issues in crises: our unsustainable provincial debt and a changed climate that is already hurting people. They are linked in this way - both exist because we have put off making tough choices today by having a party at our children’s expense.

This has us brought us to the point where we now owe over 311 billion $, the largest sub-sovereign debt in the world. As for the environment, in Ontario a record 70% of the bees died this past winter.

Clearly the evidence tells us that we have exceeded both our economic and our environmental limits. What we need to do instead is to work within our limits to focus on developing an economy that values quality over quantity -  I challenge you to be part of the solution to these and other challenges we all face by voting for the Green party June 7.
