They see Canada in the context of their personal political fortunes and, on that score, Ignatieff is as bad as any of them.<br /><br />These characters and those who constitute their political apparatus wilfully betray the public trust.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-5822214339856637372009-07-30T11:21:25.734-07:002009-07-30T11:21:25.734-07:00"History has shown the governments either con..."History has shown the governments either confront problems or they confront catastrophes. The difference is often whether they act proactively, that is to say effectively and in time, or drag their heels long enough to permit what had been a problem to grow and return as a catastrophe."<br /><br />As I understand the reluctance of North American governments to take charge of the environmental problem that exists now is this reason....they talk about fifty years from now so that they cannot be held responsible.

Government officials do not want to take responsibility for any of the problems we are facing regarding climate change...they prefer to pass it on including our wonderfully informed Canadian Government people.
