Subject:Energy East Pipeline and the Election
Important:Please add your own name at the bottom of the message. Also feel free to customize your message.
Message:Dear candidates,Follow Up:I’m writing to you today as a resident in your riding.
I have many concerns about the recent plans to build North America’s biggest oil pipeline through Ottawa, and I wanted to know where each of you stand.
Understanding that the proposed Energy East pipeline threatens the drinking water of residents of the City of Ottawa and threatens a spill as it crosses the Rideau River, and that the emissions alone would reverse all greenhouse gas reductions achieved by phasing out coal in Ontario, where do you stand on stopping this proposed pipeline?
This is an important issue for me and I would appreciate your clarifying your stance.
Thank you for your time.
Please forward any responses to [email protected] so we can keep track of candidates' responses.

Members of ECCC invited to webinar on incineration
On April 8, we invited members of City Council’s Environment and Climate Change Committee (ECCC) to attend a webinar on incineration.
