Stephen Harper often taunts the Liberals for failing to meet Canada's Kyoto committments but he can't shuck and jive his way out of this one.
From today's Globe:
"Canada ranks dead last among members of the G8 industrialized countries when it comes to keeping a pledge made last year to fight climate change by reducing greenhouse-gas emissions, according to a report prepared by researchers at the University of Toronto.
"Canada was the only Group of Eight country deemed to have posted a complete lack of compliance with the greenhouse-gas reduction goal set at last summer's G8 summit in St. Petersburg.
"Canada has "no plan" to cut its emissions in the short or long term, and could have rising output of the gases blamed for global warming under the Conservatives' Clean Air Act because the legislation doesn't cap releases, the report said."
This is one mess that lies squarely at the feet of Prime Minister Harper.
