Mark down Saturday July 25 and join a protest against Doug Ford happening near you! This Ontario-wide event is organized by a group called Protest Doug Ford.
Why are we joining? We must say NO to AI data centres in Ontario NOW before it is too late!
AI data centres are getting planned to be built in the name of "economic growth" in Ontario without consideration for people, public health, the environment, risks to unemployment (particularly for youth), and privacy/surveillance.
In addition, the independence of the IESO and OEB have been compromized through Bill 40 (passed recently in December 2025) and Bill 165 (in 2024). We're seeing these two bills take effect as the rise of AI data centres has come to Ontario. In Ontario, there are over 6,500 megawatts of AI data centres requesting to be connected to our electricity grid. That's enough electricity to power about 6,500,000 homes. The Energy Minister Stephen Lecce (MPP of King-Vaughan) and Doug Ford must listen to Ontarians by passing an immediate moratorium on AI data centres across Ontario and repeal Bill 40, Bill 165, and Bill 5.
Send an action letter to your local councillor, MPP, Mayor, Doug Ford, Stephen Lecce, and others on an immediate pause to AI data centre development: https://win.newmode.net/climatefast/moratoriumonaidatacentresinontario
