<i>"The Government has committed to achieving
an economy-wide greenhouse gas reduction
target of 20 percent below 2006 levels by
2020"</i>

The economic destruction from implementing this
monstrosity oughta do it.

Isn't there some other harmless gas we tax
instead?

fr,
This is going to turn out to be a bloody MONSTROUS taxation on farming.

This gets me really hostile. Pars

That`s why the `modern` people here in Alberta Pars, are following a girl whom we believe will debunk all this junk as next Premier!!

[wilagro]

Well I hope SOMEONE or SOME PARTY debunks the junk before those BILLIONS of dollars are wasted pumping CO2 into the ground. Steady Eddy is following an untried and to my mind a useless script with his party's solution to GW and he is using OUR MONEY.

We have a deficit and we are throwing money away on useless crap...Good God Almighty, what has happened to common sense in this province.

From the home page of above link...

"The causes of climate change and its impacts on the environment and human health are now more understood. Canada is a vast country with a diverse climate, which makes the impacts of climate change all the more important."
After all the scandals, I'd say LESS understood and LESS credible. And as far as Canada's climate, its all TOO COLD half the time. If at all possible, warmer would be ideal. Who would want to make our climate COLDER? Show of hands please!

I caught a mention of carbon tax discussion coming tommorow on Fox News' Glenn Beck program.

I'm not sure what time. I think 4:00PM Saskatchewan time on Bell.

I think the carbon tax is one farmers really want to keep track of for your own good.

This scam is dead in the water now that the GOP own the House of Representatives in the States.

If the US is not implementing any policy of the sort, no Canadian government would go it alone. Even the NDP aren't that stupid. It would be economic suicide. Like it or not, CO2 legislation in Canada had it's tombstone cast in the US midterm elections

Thank You Tea Party.

Not dead. It is reincarnated into a new name. Pars

You underestimate the Bloc coalition and Iggy. Layton is a fine example of Liberal policy and falls right in line on C02/Greenhouse Gasses/The Kyoto Protocol

Where on earth did you get the idea any common sense ever survives in Ottawa?

[cropduster]

I like your comment T4....common sense is NOT common!!

[parsley]

It's Iggy plus Ontario plus Greenpuke but worse

The United nations.

Yes.
The UN, gently pushed by Obama with his communist leanings is edging into UN carbon credit schemes.

Want to bet the name Maurice Strong pops up?
Wouldn't surprise me if the CWB has been lobbying for a carbon emmissions scheme. Another department at Main Street.

All speculation on my part, of course, just verbalizing mutterings from the voices in my head. Pars
