Canada has been sold a false promise of being an ‘energy superpower’

I do realize that Chuck. I was giving a simple example for argument sake. DeHavilland is spending big in Calgary area. Ironic a lot of the manufacturing out west is ag mining and oil related. Spin off industries. Even a lot of service industries rely on ag mining and energy.

Took a trip stateside a couple summers ago before asshole got elected and couldn’t get over the stark difference between the irrigated southern Alberta, Montana, and Idaho. Southern Alberta created synergies and spin offs from that water. Montana nothing near that. Idaho a lot more like southern Alberta. Point is, you make the best use of what you have through the synergies of value adding. Can argue oil, gas, minerals need a lot more of that too.

Except we need to stop burning fossil fuels as Harper agreed to in 2100. Why would he have done that if there is no problem with burning fossil fuels?

Otherwise we are headed for a climate that will cause all kinds of economic and environmental hardship.

90% of the previous warming has gone into the oceans.

A permanent El Nino experience is in our future.

Yeah we need to do a lot of things but it isn’t happening anytime soon, and suffering with a hero complex to save the world makes you look like a fool.

Again with the C02 bogeyman...What about the 97% naturaly occurring C02???? Oh but the 3% hydrocarbons contribute will destroy the planet? See how STUPID that sounds?

Ya WE KNOW that... so smart at future predictions...ZERO has happened to all catastrophic predictions...

So extreme heatwaves, droughts and extreme weather along with more forest fires are a thing of the future?

They are happening now!

But the anti science types never will admit it!

But that would be a problem for the whole world to tackle?
We can't expect anything to change if we Canadians run around with our hair on fire.
The net zero scam is dead.
Do what you want, but the government blew all the money with net zero results.
We sent most of the industry to Asia.
No one with a brain wants to keep doing that.

Chuck does.

He should pour all his own money into the cause but - not mine. The Green Scam is the scam of the 2000’s.

Will you personally push the change and not make intercontinental flights for vacations or to see in-laws? Change and progress starts with all of us in our own decisions.
