Thank You from the Ontario Sustainable Energy Association

Dear Members, Friends and Supporters!

Last night, Ontarians re-elected Dalton McGuinty and the Ontario Liberals to a third term of government. Congratulations are in order for the Premier, his team as well as the opposition parties for their gain in seats. We at OSEA look forward to getting to work with the new government and the opposition parties building on the foundation of the Green Energy and Green Economy Act, as we improve upon and refine the conservation and renewable energy regulations and programs that will ensure a cleaner, greener and more prosperous Ontario.

Thank you for your hard work, your financial contributions and support. Together we ensured that our policy issues, Green Energy and Community Power, were front and centre during the election.

Once again thank you and have a happy Thanksgiving!

Regards,

Kristopher Stevens
Executive Director
Ontario Sustainable Energy Association
