Stop The Clean Electricity Regulations
Last week, Canada’s Environment Minister, Steven Guilbeault, released the draft Clean Electricity Regulations - otherwise known as the much anticipated, incredibly expensive, and entirely unconstitutional net-zero 2035 electricity generation requirements.
Ottawa is even threatening punitive measures for those who don't comply, with Energy and Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson announcing that billions of dollars in tax credits and grants will be tied to a province's plan to reach net-zero.
We’ll cut to the chase - these Clean Electricity Regulations are flat-out unconstitutional.
Electricity generation is an exclusive provincial jurisdiction protected by Section 92A (1)(c) of the Constitution, which states:
"In each province, the legislature may exclusively make laws in relation to ... development, conservation and management of sites and facilities in the province for the generation and production of electrical energy."
Luckily, the Clean Electricity Regulations are a consultative document - meaning the regulations are not finalized.
So, we need to make ourselves heard and be as loud as possible now.
That's why we're launching a new campaign calling on the federal government to back off, respect the Constitution, stop infringing on provincial jurisdiction, and Stop The Clean Electricity Regulations!
Please sign our petition against the CER now, pass this petition on to your friends and family, and we'll be in touch in the coming days with more ways you can help with this campaign.

The world needs to step back and take an objective “real” scientific look at the issue and if Canada had any real leaders they would be taking the lead and showing the world that the agenda driven climate evangelists have turned most citizens of the world into terrified lemmings.
There is no climate crisis. Yes, the climate is changing as it always has and always will. But its not the CO2 molecule that is doing it. We should be accepting climate change for what it is and be preparing accordingly. Chasing CO2 molecules is a fool’s occupation. Remember:
“Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought.
To be led by a coward is to be controlled
by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool is to be led
by the opportunists who control the fool.
To be led by a thief is to offer up
your most precious treasures to be stolen.
To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies.
To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself
and those you love into slavery.”
― Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Talents
