Content of the article

Prime Minister Mark Carny is under pressure from his green allies in order to comply with his actions to change the climate as a prime minister, with his rhetoric, before he became the prime minister.

For the sake of Canadian taxpayers, we hope that he is resisting.

Firstly, Karni in no case said that he threw a towel when climate change.

His government is currently developing what it calls the strategy of “climatic competitiveness”, there will be details.

While he turned the tax of the former Prime Minister Justin Trundu unpopular tax on carbon consumers to take to the position, Karni also promised an expanded carbon tax and a new tariff for imported goods from countries without green energy, known as a carbon regulation mechanism.

The practical effect will be to charge Canadians for imported goods from these countries.

What we can hope that Karni will abandon the ridiculously unrealistic Trudeau target to reduce the emissions of industrial greenhouse gases in Canada, at least 40% lower than the 2005 level by 2030.

This would cause a mass recession, given that they are only 8.5% lower than 200.5, and to achieve the goal, it will be required to eliminate the equivalent of all emissions in the Canadian oil and gas sector in six years.

We must hope that Karni will focus on the results, and not on unattainable purposes, admitting that the economy today is the priority of the number one Canadians.

With Trudeau, our economic growth was the slowest of all federal government since the time of great depression.

The organization of economic cooperation and development says that if nothing changes, Canada will have the slowest economic growth, defined as real GDP per person, the widespread measure of the standard of life-and-term developed countries until 2060.

Canada can contribute to a decrease in emissions, while earning money thanks to measures such as the sale of our vast natural gas resources around the world, because the replacement of electricity working on coal is one of the most effective ways to reduce emissions, since natural gases are burned at half the intensity of coal carbon.

We can additionally reduce emissions and increase employment, having built the national corridor of pure energy from east to west, providing reliable electricity, mainly due to the use of nuclear energy, hydroelectric power station and natural gas, while the latter supports intermittent wind energy.

But let's stop setting the goals of emissions that we cannot achieve.
