Remarks by Peter Polley
Polycorp Properties Inc. Bill 145
Standing Committee on Law Amendments
April 12, 2022
Mr. Chair, members of the Law Amendments Committee.
Thank you for the opportunity to speak in favour of Bill 145. I am here on behalf of not only my company Polycorp, but also as the renewable energy lead for the Investment Property Owners Association of Nova Scotia. Polycorp has also supported the efforts of Solar Nova Scotia and CanREA – the Canadian Renewable Energy Association.
We would like to thank the Minister of Natural Resources and Renewables and the dedicated public servants in his department who have helped prepare this legislation that we are reviewing today.
I would like to thank the Premier personally for his leadership in putting Nova Scotia on a path for a cleaner future, with more solar energy from a diverse group of players.
If we are going to truly “break the Nova Scotia Power monopoly” – as was once promised in a previous election – it is legislation like Bill 145 that will help make it happen.
We believe in Bill 145 because it will help me and my company do our own small part to win the fight against climate change.
