Isn't this the same guy who described the fight against global warming as a "socialist plot?"
That, it seems, was then, this is now. There's a new sheriff in town, a guy named Obama, and Canada's prime minister is busy trying to re-arrange his spots on climate change.
According to Stephen Harper Canada dragged its heels but only because Bush held us back:
“In Canada, we've been wrestling for the last decade or so with our desire to try to have a regime, a regulatory regime, that would diminish our own carbon emissions. But we've been trying to do so in an integrated economy when the United States has not been willing to do so,” Mr. Harper said in an interview to be broadcast in two parts yesterday and today.
“I think quite frankly the fact that we have a President and an administration that wants to see some kind of regulation on this is an encouragement.”
What's the term I'm looking for? Oh yeah, Bald-Faced Liar. Or is "weasel" better?
“In Canada, we've been wrestling for the last decade or so with our desire to try to have a regime, a regulatory regime, that would diminish our own carbon emissions...."
ReplyDeleteWhooee! Harper's been wrestlin', alright. Only thing is, his wrestlin' personna is that of Horrible Harp, Destroyer of Earth. He's been wrestlin' against any action and he managed to hold off the wrestlin' Champeens of Mother Earth. Now, that the Mother Earth wrestlin' tag team has got a new wrestler in Bracko, Harper's tryin' to switch sides.
Have a look at the letter 50 prominent Canajuns wrote to Bracko. Them Canajuns include Happy Jack and Lizzie May.
