'Our goal is always to hit 100%,' Ford says as docs reveal Ontario off track to hit key climate target
-
Premier Doug Ford says Ontario will try to hit its climate change targets by 2030, despite internal documents suggesting the province is not on track to meet the emissions reduction goals.
Ford was responding to a report from CBC News that shows the province is projected to miss a key climate change target by three megatonnes of emissions in 2030. The premier said Ontario is working hard to hit the mark and committing to nuclear energy as a way to help green the province’s electricity grid.
“Our goal is always to hit 100 per cent and we’ll do it as quickly as possible,” Ford said on Friday. “That’s our goal, and that’s what we’re going to do. We’re going to do our very best to achieve it.”

How about rezoning housing for maximum density as a first step, since mass transit sucks and we also have a housing crisis?
The left seems awfully worried about home values as they simultaneously complain about climate change.

“… province is projected to miss a key climate change target by three megatonnes of emissions in 2030”
No where in the article do they say what the target is, or how much progress they are on track to make. Are they off by 50%? Would they have to triple their progress to hit the target in time?

Ontario environment minister said 'we are on track' to meet 2030 climate targets. Internal docs disagree | CBC News
Ontario is not on track to hit a key climate change target with less than five years to go, civil servants have told the province's new environment minister — information that appears to contradict his own statements since taking on the portfolio.

For some reason a different article from the same author provides that information.
The report suggests Ontario has made progress on emissions reductions since 2022. But it notes that the pledge would require the province to reduce its emissions to 142 megatonnes, and it’s currently on track to achieve a reduction to approximately 145 megatonnes of greenhouse gases by 2030.

This makes it sound a lot more attainable. If Doug actually cared about this goal instead of just pretending to care, Ontario could come in below its goal.
