Poilievre has a bad week after Trump anounces 25% tariffs

Who said anything about shutting down industry?

Even Steve Harper said we will stop burning fossil fuels for energy by the year 2100. Was he wrong and a commie environmentalist?

I think Steve is wrong on this one.

Physics and economics say we are already approaching maximum renewables like solar and wind.

Hydro is limited and Nuclear always stalls on any type of headline incident.

Fossil fuel has way to many advantages to be totally replaced.

Never happen.

Edit: I forgot to include biofuels. They are the cornerstone of even pretending it is going to happen.

Nope, he was a politician saying what he thought people wanted to hear. Politicians are just salesman selling narratives!!!

Except Trump, when he tweets about tariffs, or annexing Canada, he's not just a salesman telling people what they want to hear, he is to be taken seriously, according to some on here who create constant new threads about this as if it is serious.

Trump is trolling the crap out of anyone willing to let it get to them. Best thing would be to not lose your shit about it publicly and say things you can’t walk back on but privately plan every contingency possible. Media and government using it as rallying battle cry to breath some life into a dying regime. Doubt they get the mileage out of it they expect. Could even see it backfiring.

One would think that the professional experienced troll types would recognize when they themselves are being trolled.
The same could be said for the flat earth discussions on here.
But they don't.
