So we can use your province, to make our case?
Has your province suffered any set back, with increased pollution?....I think not

It's not gone yet, but soon. All the new cars they simply plug into the OB2 port and look for emission codes. No tread mill tailpipe check. Followed by them taking $48 for two year pass. Pumpkin will never see Air Scare now.

They changed the system here too, similar to yours, but still concerned. They've already had issues with the new system throwing "fail" codes for no good reason.

Lots of contraversy about the new system, and too many variables that can set off a fail on vertually clean cars...even the dealerships are against the new system.
I hope they fix this before I'm due, and want to see what happens to those of us with mild modifications done to our cars.

We'll see what happens.

UPDATE!

Received the following e-mail from MPP Randy Hillier:



Thank you for signing my petition calling for the end of the Drive Clean program.

On Wednesday, I read our petition into the record of Ontario's Legislature. Over 870 people signed the petition at the time I presented it. You can view video of my introduction of the petition here.

By reading it into the record, all members of the Legislature have the opportunity to hear your concerns. Additionally, the rules of the legislature require the Minister of Environment Jim Bradley to respond to the petition. When I receive his response, I intend on sharing it with you.

This program has run its course. It is obsolete and does nothing except for taxing hard-working car owners across Ontario. Please rest assured that I will continue to fight against this useless tax.

Best regards,

Randy Hillier, MPP

[THUMPER20X]

Signed it. Anything that can make Ontario one of the worst places and for that matter canaduh as a whole being the shittiest place to modify cars is a no brainer. Out ministers of transportation are twats.

[AbsoluteMayheM]

that is exactly correct. Its a cash grab. For the last 10 to 15 years cars have been able to tune themselves.

Finally BC is set to abolish the program

One of the benefits to living in Northern Ontario, I have never had to get my vehicle tested for emissions.

And as far as politics go the Dalton McGuinty era Liberals have sold this province down the river. I find it interesting that the current liberal party paid 600 million for two seats so that those gas plants wouldn’t be built in someone’s back yard.

Yet they want to throw wind turbines that are an eye sore in my back yard and say that it is no big deal.

My definition of current Canadian Politicians.
Liberals – let’s spend money like it’s going out of style and sell off all the crown corporations that generate money for the province.

Conservatives – Let’s bust all the unions so everyone in Ontario ends up working for minimum wage, and has to work till they die.

NDP – Got to support all the social programs, I don’t know where the money is going to come from but who cares, we’ll figure it out later.

The Green party – I don’t know why I even listed these BUMS.


Anyway sorry about the rant, since we pay these politicians wages we should be allowed to fire them at will.

No I am not ANGRY!!!!!!!!!!!
