    There appears to be a strong and continued movement away from left-wing extremism of chuckchuck's type, Brazil being the latest to correct its wayward course:

    The political conditions in Brazil appear to mirror what is happening here.

    The people will put up with being fed leftist crap and corruption for only so long before they kick it to the curb like an overripe horse bun.

    In April the parlimentary budget officer (PB0) says the carbon tax will take about $10 billion off GDP growth or 1/2 a percent of growth by 2022. That's 10 billion out of almost a $2 Trillion dollar economy. That is significant, but the economy continues growing but at a slower rate. Not the end of the world by any measure.

    In order to put this in perspective what is the cost of climate change to the economy?

    "Real and rising costs are now being felt in two key areas: the economic and financial impact of increasingly severe weather, and the impact on public infrastructure.

    Climate change is already having a significant effect on the property and casualty-insurance industry, with immediate business implications for insurers and their clients. More frequent extreme weather events have increased the level of weather-related insurance claims for floods, forest fires and other catastrophic events, globally and locally. For example, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development reports that annual losses from overland flooding have grown to more than US$40-billion annually in recent years; more flood events occurred in 2010-13 than in the whole decade of the 1980s."

    "Governments across Canada are engaged in trying to promote the reduction in GHG emissions at the lowest possible cost. Policy makers and the public can debate the pros and cons of the differing policy choices available; but we must also agree that there are costs to not taking action.

    "https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/commentary/article-the-costs-of-climate-change-are-rising/

    It seems so obvious, why do so many fail to comprehend the relationship of wealth redistribution is one that require wealth making to redistribute: investor confidence in Canada is declining, and existing business sector is about to be taxed even more, making us less globally competitive. Even more disconcerting is the world is entering the technical revolution where jobs will decline: how well positioned is Canada for the future, given what we see unfolding: more debt, more tax?
