In the Financial Post:”Opinion:Net-zero won’t cure the climate but it might kill Canada.” By Ian Clark Professor of earth and environmental sciences at the University of Ottawa. Every Canadian should read this article, it shows how difficult and expensive Justin Trudeau’s unicorn inspired goals will be to achieve!!

Its too late hamloc. Trudeau is hardly the only one going after this. Every nation is doing it, US, EU and they are in it hard consequences be damned. All of the big corps and banks are on board now.

Canadas energy industry is going to be a shell of itself and carbon intensive industries like mining, ag, export transportation are going to take it. This what the voters wanted. They would rather feel virtuous and be equally poorer. Lets give them what they want.

And farmers need to wake up. There are too many guys just thinking shes business as usual here. They are frothing at the mouth for $18 canola and missing whats going on behind the scenes. They are dead wrong.

ESG rules will reach right into your farm in more ways than just a carbon tax. You will eventually have to justify and prove all of your farming method meet sustainable guidelines and if the dont, you exports dont move until they do. You can expect Nitrogen to be heavily taxed and scrutinized. Some of our trusted chemicals probably banned. Wetlands, buffers, mandated shelterbelts, cover crops etc. Its all coming.

Its feelings over facts.

Instead of doxing the author, why dont you refute his argument. He is dead on and your climate cult cant handle the fact that wind and solar will never power anything. The permitting and large tracts of land for these boondoggles will kill them before they start unless a lot of bribes are paid.

John Kerry the US climate czar scuttled an offshore wind farm off his own vacation home. Yeah these are the kind of delusional activists in the climate field.

This why I've being saying at every opportunity I can that the Carbon Tax has to be a visible Tax, where everytime you purchase something, you can see on the receipt, the amount of Carbon Tax you paid.

Unlike GST where each processor/developer/manufacturer is rebated the GST Tax at each step, until the consumer buys it at it's final retail cost,,, the amount of Carbon Tax built into the cost of an item is unknown, and inflates the cost of every item as it moves through development. Carbon Tax accumulates at each step, and when a consumer purchases the final product, they have no idea that the Carbon Tax has inflated the item they end up buying. If they actually saw the Tax on the receipt, they may have a different thought about how great the Carbon Tax is, especially the millennials and Gen Zeders, who are most in favor of it.

China and India are going right around the climate cult to nuclear. They arent even going to try to fk around with solar and wind for 3 billion people.

Japan is restarting its Fukishima reactors, France is refurbishing theirs to last another 50 yrs. SMR tech is advancing rapidly. A SMR reactor the size of a grain bin can power a small city. Why on earth would you try to cover hundreds of square miles with solar panels and windmills? Climate nutjobs.
