sam13371337 Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 its funny how indoctrinated and brainwashed people have become over this 'global warming' issue. being promoted by self serving "scientists" who make outrageous salaries to promote this, plus government officials who see their biggest cash cow since the "temporary income tax to pay for ww1". they still haven't paid for the war yet... just keep paying them a little more. and for those climatist people. this carbon tax grab doesn't have to come from the government you know? we don't need to pay thieves in Ottawa our hard earned money to save the planet us for us? you can voluntarily pay up to 100% of your income personally to Trudeau if you wish to save the planet. just don't put a gun to someone elses head, and put your hands in their pocket for your world saving endeavours please. from now on, I proudly support global warming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now they are forced to go back and get it right or let it die. Same thing is happening with C-69, over 100 amendments to that just got through committee. Even Kenney is happy: https://globalnews.ca/news/5286251/senate-committee-passes-bill-c-69-amendments/ Honestly Jim, McKenna is the problem. I actually agree with JTs environment approach, we need to invest in a greener future but we need to make money today. McKenna needs to go as environment minister.

I can see that she gets under the skin of a lot of CPC supporters for some reason but I don't know what that is. I'm happy to see C69 has a chance of moving forward with support from all sides.

These terrible bills actually make her judge and jury. We all know that we need to make changes but drastic measures that hurt millions of Canadians is not the answer.

I guess i wasn't paying attention maybe its like when JT appointed Monsef to run the proportional gov't stuff, I knew right then to not give it 5 minutes, it was doa. I'm actually encouraged by the new form of the senate - its made a number of really postive changes to bills, this one by far being the most extensive. It may have never worked better in fact. Given that it would take a miracle to remove it or make it elected, its great to see people standing up for their regions and constituent industries and making good changes.

I will 100% support a Senate if it continues to work like this. Accountability is a good thing. Monsef does however seem very personable and pleasant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it might be working better than Trudeau intended I don't have an issue with Monsef personally, just knew when that file was given to a person with zero experience that the idea was dead. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no real debate within academia regarding anthropogenic climate change and it is widely accepted outside of institutions such as heartland, Fraser etc (you get the idea...). You might argue the 97 per cent figure on a semantic level, but it conveys reality. “We are more sure that greenhouse gas is causing climate change than we are that smoking causes cancer.” - Kate Marvel, Nasa atmospheric scientist.

Well Kate should know only 43% of climate scientists are as sure about things as she is. About 70% are pretty sure any warming effect is mainly caused by humans. Actually, I might also fall into that category. But If it's about warming caused by human CO2 emissions only, I would be out. I'm sure a few more of the climatologists would join me. So, stick to facts, not nonsense, so real discussions can occur. https://climatechangedispatch.com/254-new-papers-support-climate-skepticism/amp/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to act regardless of pissing matches over "cause". We know we can have a significant impact on emissions. We know we need to better prepare our coastal cities. These sorts of rabbit hole debates are just about delaying and doing nothing, which isn't acceptable anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we stop quibbling about the cause and just go with provable fact, we will do nothing at all. Sea level rise has not changed in our lifetime. All the extra CO2 hasn't changed a thing. It will be a century before we have to lay down a few sandbags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
