OFA provided comments to the Ministry of Energy and Electrification regarding the consultation to support the important role for natural gas in Ontario’s energy system and economy.
OFA raised the importance of natural gas as an energy source for rural communities across Ontario. Through this submission, OFA shared several specific recommendations for the Ministry to take that would further support the energy needs of rural and agricultural communities.
OFA looks forward to continuing to work with the provincial government, our municipal counterparts, rural community stakeholders, and utilities to ensure the important role for natural gas in Ontario’s energy system and economy accurately reflects the best interests of agricultural, rural, northern and remote communities, and Ontario long-term energy policy objectives.
