Oh.

Forgot to mention.

Idiot Boy also endorsed the moratorium on fracking in New Brunswick proposed by the provincial Liberal leader.

Fracking has been going on for decades.

Not to mention the damage this would do to an already impoverished province.

And the fact that it would be a surrender to Indian terrorists.

The very mention of Junior raises my BP to dangerous levels.

He is an idiot (downgraded again) a liar, and a fool.

So you think Fracking is a good idea? Not everyone agrees with you.

Fracking will make the USA energy self-sufficient by 2020.

Fracking has been going on for 60 years.

The switch to natural gas in the USA will (and already has) lowered co2 emmissions.

Fracking snatches power form Qatar and other Muslim ME countries, which is why they so enthusiastically back the "environmentalists"

YES, fracking is a good thing.

Tax credits aren't subsidies. Like I said numerous times, you're clueless.

That IMF report that Flossy is vested in actually tries to include the cost of vehicular accidents (some weird variation) to society as a 'subsidy'.

I'll dig up the article an dsend it your way.

PS - Interestingly, the IMF has had no less than 3 leaders that have been investigated on charges/allegations of corruption and wrongdoings of a variety of things.... Don't have a lot of time for the IMF

Fracking pumps carcinogenic chemicals in the ground and screws with anyones water supply who lives nearby.

If the method of getting energy increases our chances of cancer and degrades the Earth, is it worth it?

No, it does not.

If it did, there would be no fresh water in large swaths of the USA. By 2013 over TWO MILLION fracked wells had been drilled in the USA. The process was introduced in 1949.

Please see above.

It does not increase our chances of cancer and nor does it degrade the Earth more than other methods......

No neither Mulcair nor Harper want to give away the election. Mulcair wants to prove
he can become a credible leader and Harper is a control freak. He knows if he loses
the dream of dismantling the social safety net will be finished.
I do not want him re-elected he's done enough damage and I am torn between the
Trudeau and Mulcair camps. I have heard the Tories are worried the social media and
ad campaigns are not working this time and Trudeau is doing well. People want change
they also do not want changes to pensions, family allowances, and medicare.
Harper is in serious trouble and they are wondering how to find the Canadian soft spot.
There is a list of division here on issues. People want an east west pipeline, the oil sands
are split opposition to Northern GAteway is surprising many.
People want change even if they end up with the same thing

Actually not people want something different and in the absence of real leadership
they will bolt and find something else. All those negative ads about every leader
before Trudeau are now falling flat and people are just tired of the crap. The
problem is we don't have what we want people want to go the direction of the Ontario
Liberals even in pockets of the west and Harpers folks are having trouble with that.
If they give them what they want the old Reform crowd is angered if they don't give
Canadians what they want everyone else will be angered

Maybe you should learn about how fracking works before defending this dangerous method of gas extraction.

I suggest you look up what subsidy means. All businesses get tax credits. Tax credits are probably why you have job.

There is a definition of subsidy is in the report and it's not a tax credit.

yeah, no it's easier not to care about one of the core industries of our great nation when you're stoned on the frito-stained pull-out I 'spose. :lol:
