Eliminate the Drive Clean Program

The Drive Clean Program was introduced a decade ago to address one of the leading causes of smog in Ontario at that time; vehicle exhaust. After 10 years, vehicle exhaust is no longer a significant source of pollution. Even the founder of the program says it has run its course. It's time to end this expensive program that has out-run its purpose.

A Petition to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario

WHEREAS the the Auditor General specifically warned the government to delay implementation of the new Drive Clean test to ensure technical testing was completed and problems were resolved;

AND WHEREAS the AG also recommended that due to modern improvements in vehicles and fuels vehicle emissions are no longer a major contributor to smog in Ontario and this program be phased out;

AND WHEREAS  the fail rate for vehicles through this new system has skyrocketed due to the shortcoming of the test itself and not emissions problems with the vehicle, making Drive Clean nothing more than a tax grab for the government;

WE the undersigned petition the Legislative Assembly of Ontario as follows: That the government of Ontario eliminate the Drive Clean Program.

    We’ve known for years that drive clean is just a money grab and even more so today. There are so many other pollutants that go unnoticed because it wouldn’t hit the little folks but major companies. The day will come that the Liberals will pay for all the scams they are ramming the taxpayers of Ontario with and not soon enough for me.

    Across the river in Quebec they don’t have this nonsense. Is our air any cleaner?

    Drive clean is now an outdated system, our vehicles today are much cleaner running and the new system does not address smog issues. It seems to address other issues on the vehicle
