I hesitantly agree with Iggys un-Dionish position of
defending the Alberta Oil sands.
Iggy may have seen the light that the real pollution problem is not in Fort McMurray, but in other major Canadian cities such as Toronto.
There goes the Oil patch hating Liberal vote to the NDP and Greens.
Michael Ignatieff is known supporter of Canada paying into Kyoto. Not to long ago he was slamming the Conservative government for not ratifying the Liberal Kyoto deal of which Prime Minister Harper had said would require such drastic energy cuts it would ruin the Canadian economy. Perhaps Iggy will flip-flop on his illusion of Canada living up to the Liberal Kyoto commitment next.
Where does Iggy now stand on Kyoto after attempting to warm up to the Oil Patch? The last thing we need right now is more Liberals wanting to send our money out of Canada to pay for the 'theory' of Global Warming.
Could Iggy be playing the Liberal bait and switch pre-election plan, like Liberal Red book promise of eliminating the GST?
Just last year Iggy
