Nonsense only Liberals would believe!

I suggest that you wake up and smell the flowers their blooming earlier and earilier every year. Why do you suppose that is?
Global warming and its relationship to human developement are facts. We have two choses try to do something about rapid climate change or learn to live with it and living with it will be like living with a psychopath, a drunken one at that.
Frankly I don't find The National Post fit to line my cat's litterbox.

Umm, we still have frost in the ground here.

If this is man made climate change, we aren't doing a very good job.

Don’t forget about all the dihydrogen monoxide that industry and automobiles everywhere are spewing out their stacks! This substance has permeated the entire globe and soil concentrations of it increase every time it comes down with rainfall. It’s even being measured in glaciers and baby polar bears are being born with high concentrations in their blood. Help fight against this terrible environmental disaster by supporting your local chapter of the Society Concerned About Manufacturing (SCAM). Send in money before it’s too late!

Mr. Hin;

You wrote:

"OK Parsley, I'll bite. How is this this the CWB's fault?


By the way, you previously bragged about how great a show this was so what happened? Perhaps your tastes and opinions aren't as common as you think?"

So who owns the station Larry Weber did the show on... Rawlco Radio...

And who owns this but Gordon and Doug Rawlinson.

How did it happen that Dion, Goodale and the Liberal/CWB crew just happened to be at the Junios in Saskatoon?

How close is the connection between the Dion Liberals and the Rawlinsons... and the Liberal policy on the CWB policy? Isn't a top advisor to Dion and Goodale not a Rawlinson... this same family who owns how many radio stations (I understand over a dozen) in AB, SK, and connections into MB?

There is no connection?

ChuckChuck... what do you think...

If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, swims like a duck, looks like a duck, smells like a duck... would you evade the truth and call it a subspecies of a waterfowl type of bird?

Do you and Mr. Hin think we are stupid?

Wilagro... the process used by Goodale on the 1996 Export License CWB regulation change was wrong... I did not say he couldn't do it that way.

In fact the "Honourable" Goodale rode all over our property rights when he sacked "designated area" growers & made this fundemental change to the CWB Act... that change itself proved the CWB was voluntary even by CDN law... to that point!

No Vote.

Goodale took our rights away to avoid the CWB.

From Gunter's Blog
A couple of quotations on the motives behind a lot of global warmers
Remember how -- in one of the manufactured outrages for which they have become so infamous -- the Liberals last month tried to smear Prime Minister Stephen Harper as anti-environment for having said in 2002 that the Kyoto accords were "a socialist scheme to suck money out of wealth-producing nations?"

Harper, of course, was right. Developing and under-developed countries were specifically excluded from Kyoto's emissions targets until the could "catch up" economically to the industrialized world. Never mind that countries such as India, Indonesia, China and Brazil are much heavier emitters on a per-dollar-of-GDP-produced basis than Canada or the United States, or that by next year or 2009 China will have replaced the US as the #1 emitter in the world, such nations were not bound by Kyoto because they were poorer. They could go on emitting at will until they were as rich as the western world. Meanwhile, developed countries were to be held back by the burden of meeting their Kyoto targets.

If Kyoto were all or even mostly about the environment, reducing all countries' emissions would have trumped such crass economic considerations.
This arrangement, while indirect, was meant to transfer wealth from the developed world to the developing as surely as a direct cash grab.
The buying and selling of carbon credits is another transfer method.
Carbon credits do nothing to reduce emissions. They are merely bandages for the conscience. If Country A is under-developed, and therefore producing few emissions, it can sell its lack of CO2 emissions to Country B. B gets credit for having "offset" its overuse of emissions. The UN and environmentalists are happy, but I can't imagine why. No emissions were stopped or reduced.

Even China, which is a heavy emitter, gets to sell credits to western countries that transfer technology to it. The tech sales don't have to go toward refitting existing, dirty, coal-fired power plants, for instance. The technology might be for an under-construction plant that otherwise might have used coal. Country B then gets carbon credits for helping Country A to never produce the additional emissions in the first place.

Anyway, the fact that Kyoto and global warming alarmism really are a "socialist scheme," put me in mind of two quotes that sum up the real motives of the warmists very well:

The urge to save humanity is almost always a false-front for the urge to rule it.
H.L. Mencken

And:

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
C.S. Lewis

ivbinconned: Darn, I have to agree with you on this one.

I know, I know; it is against my nature to agree with you, but what the hay.

[ivbinconned]

gosh...it's taken along time!

[nakodo]

It is easy to sign Kyoto (liberals) harder to implement it (hence the how many years delay) and much easier as the opposition to get the Conservatives to implent it, cause a recession and win a Liberal victory afterwards.
