He's a banker. He's going to follow the money. This shouldn't be a surprise.

Nah, dawg. It's gone. Redemption is possible. But he's outed himself as clearly a fossil fuel industry backer

Precisely my thoughts. His record on climate is already out the window but the trust is his to earn back. He re-affirmed the commitment to Elizabeth May, so Canadians expect him to keep his promises. He should know enough about money, the history of Keystone XL, Northern Gateway, and TMX that oil projects are on a dead-end course. This pipeline talk is to keep Alberta's government from playing the blame game on them. The UCP's jig could be up within the next year.

He’s more likely to recapture carbon than recapture his climate credibility.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

He lost that when he killed the carbon levy.

[–] jaselle@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Poilievre killed that with misinformation.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 days ago

Poilievre had no position to kill anything.

Ignorant Canadians killed the levy.

Mark Carney promised that the federal government’s forthcoming Climate Competitiveness Strategy—his government’s first emission reduction plan—will focus on “results over objectives”

Then makes carbon capture a central part of the strategy. Give me a break.

Anyone pushing carbon capture is a shill pushing bullshit.

Yes carbon capture is a weak effort, but getting Alberta to agree to that is still more of a win than I expected.

I see discussion after discussion on The Bridge, CBC, etc. where no one challenges CCS on its effrctiveness. It's just taken as an effective solition axiomatically and the discussion continues as if its a simple matter of deploying it.

How can something that never existed crumble?

If the article ends in a question mark, the answer is no and someone paid to plant an idea in your head
