OTTAWA — A prominent B.C. academic and close political ally of New Democratic Party leader Tom Mulcair said Friday that Mulcair's environmental policies would lead to some oilsands operations being rendered no longer being viable. The statement by University of B.C. professor Michael Byers...

Maybe you should stick to what I actually post, instead of being repeatedly dishonest. It's a sure sign you really aren't interested in an honest discussion.

I said let me know when you're ready to have an honest conversation.

We aren't. You're trying to steer the conversation away from anything that makes Der Leader look bad and dictate that the conversation be specifically about reducing emissions. Without looking at the big picture... Instead of bending over backwards to avoid making Der Leader look bad, you...

And what is that number? Who should pay it?

At what cost?

At present? No.

Excellent example of putting the cart before the horse. I was busy reading about Germany and the green monster. Geezus, aren't you a little old to be an attention wh!re? You aren't the only person here eh. I gave you one.

http://www.vancouversun.com/business/Germany+middle+class+enjoys+high+standard+living/6051769/story.html I think the other far reaching German policies, probably played a large part. They didn't likely put the cart before the horse.

It has little to do with habits, the implication there, is that what everyday people do, is some sort of elective. It isn't. I have to get up, I have to fire up my vehicle, because I have to drive to wherever my present contract takes me. So I can pay my bills. Can you make that makes sense...

Forcing industry to eat the costs of green initiatives. Instead of passing it on to consumers. I have no idea how you can come to the conclusion I'm a Conservative shill.

I'm tired of being the beast of burden for the hair brained schemes of people who do far less for the environment than I. And no offence, but by your own admission, you do far less to protect the environment and lessen your carbon footprint than I do. Do you support Mulcairs position on oil...

You're right, taxing the working man, is stupid. Why do you support such a stupid idea?

Ya, f!ck it. Tax the hell out of people trying to make ends meet. Throw them a bone, made of their own money, once a year. You know what's funny Fuzzy? For a guy that loves the working mans party, you and the working mans party, sure have a funny way of showing your love for the working man.

Because the are viable alternatives, readily and cheaply available to the end user of plastic bags. While the size of our country, and the necessity of travel for work or pleasure, makes conservation fuel far more difficult to endure. And my bottom line goes down. Yes selfish I know. But I can't...

Enact new legislation that will protect the consumer from downloading, then enforce current pollution laws. Pay sdome other company in some other country to go without? I don't like yours or Mulcair ideas on the matter.

And without further legislation in place, the polluter passes that cost onto everyone else... :roll:

While it can be supported. Theories change as new evidence is found. We aren't talking about plastic bags here Ton. We're talking about transportation, heating and industry. Forcing green intiatives, will be past onto the ratepayers. Those that can change their life style can and will. Those...

No doubt, but that doesn't negate the fact that the methodology used to determine our impact, is a theory. It may be sound today, as many theories are, or have been. But it is still a theory. I'm all for the big fix. But all I see is schemes and get fixed quick fads. The same tendency to put...

Yes even drastic climate shift is naturally occurring. It's safe to say that man has had an affect on the climate. Where I question the whole story is, just how much and how are we going to fix it. The methods used to determine it, are theories. The schemes proposed do nothing to actually...
