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.

Will you sign?

We the undersigned call on the federal government to back off, respect the Constitution, stop infringing on provincial jurisdiction, and Stop The Clean Electricity Regulations.

This is not a well thought out plan. You must let the provinces innovate on their own terms in ways that make to most sense to their citizens.

My bills have tripled this year and I have a decent job. This will break people once it is all implemented. Sick of this government turning us into a 3rd world shit hole.

Actual power generation when needed most is miniscule People will freeze to death.

Hydro power should have to account for the huge GHG emissions ftom rotting vegetation and loss of boreal forest GHG carbon sinks.
