This means cleaner air for everyone in Ontario. More recently, the ministry announced a proposed expansion to the regulation requiring other emitters in Ontario to monitor and report on an extended list of air pollutants including the full suite of greenhouse gases. Accurate, timely, public reporting of air emissions by all sectors will be vital to emissions reduction trading. A discussion paper outlining proposed rules for Ontario's emissions reduction trading program is now also available for public comment. Once in place, this innovative system would provide incentives to emitters to reduce their emissions, above and beyond regulated limits.
