GREEN NEW DEAL = BLIZZARD OF LIES

It's over and done.

" Tesla deliveries are below expectations, Volvo has moved back its 2030 100% EV timeline, General Motors abandoned its 1-million-vehicle 2025 sales goal, and Ford has shifted some EV production back to internal combustion vehicles, the note reported.

Meanwhile, EV startups are struggling. California-based Fisker declared bankruptcy, while luxury EV makers Rivian and Lucid, whose vehicles draw rave reviews from the automotive media, have seen shares drop precipitously this year as the companies fall short of sales goals.

Look at this guy.  "Over and done"  too funny and so, so wrong.

What has happened in reality?  Tesla way, way up - meanwhile Ford is failing.  It is the complete opposite of what this so-called economist predicted. 

Hide in shame.

Oil prices are beginning to soar again as a sense of reality breaks into the oil markets.

How is that soaring going?  Are you going to argue down is up again? I clearly posted the price trend-lines.

It appears that Justin Trudeau is in serious political meltdown mode again, with the socialist party threatening to force him to resign and bring down his government.

That would be good news for the Alberta government, whose ownership and direction of the oil industry puts them as natural opponents of Trudeau and his misguided climate agitation.

The government of Alberta owns 81% of the province's oil and gas rights.

"Alberta believes the federal emissions cap will force production cuts and hurt the economy.

The province argues the cap is unconstitutional and plans to fight its enforcement.

Alberta's actions include declaring emissions data provincial property and potentially blocking federal officials from oil and gas sites."

"The actions in the motion, if approved, would ensure that no provincial entity participates in the enforcement or implementation of the federal cap. It would also ban entry to any individual, including any federal official or contractor, into oil and gas sites unless these are specifically licensed to enter by the Government of Alberta.

In one of the more controversial actions, the motion would declare all information on emissions as proprietary information exclusively owned by the Government of Alberta, and mandate that all emissions data be reported and disclosed at the province’s discretion."

It appears you once again have no clue. Alberta has barked for many years, nothing much happens. Oh other than the Trudeau government actually got the trans-mountain pipeline approved and built and they own the pipeline.

While I hate pollution, Alberta oil does bring me money so either way I win.

Address your other posts, where Ford was going to win, EV's lose, and oil soars.  Run and hide or explain your clearly wrong posts.

I guarantee you that will not be approved. It is in direct contradiction of numerous federal acts.  For example the Fisheries Act and the Canadian Environmental Protection Act clearly grant federal agents to do law enforcement on oil sites.  They also have the duty to assist the inspection.  If only someone here was an expert on this subject...

That statement tells us who you really are, a liar with no moral code. You have negated all your previous posts by that one statement!!! Sad....

No, it does not.  Liking money and the environment are not mutually exclusive.  I just pointed out that even if I get something I don't want (pollution) that pain is mitigated by getting something I do like ($).

Imagine saying someone can't both like salads and pizza.  Enjoying a pizza doesn't mean you can't think the salad is the better choice. Oil is the pizza, greasy, unhealthy, but enjoyable.  We should consume more green energy.

It is moot anyways as that garbage he posted will never materialize.  The feds won't be bossed around that much by the provinces.  Some do not understand that the individual provinces do not have anywhere near the power of a individual state.

Coal is hot and getting hotter, with production and demand ramping up to all-time highs.

EVs and coal in China are like bread and butter, you cannot have one without the other.

https://oilprice.com/Latest-Energy-News/World-News/Worlds-Coal-Demand-at-Record-High-in-2024-IEA-Says.html

This year, coal demand is on track to increase by 1% from 2023 to 8.77 billion tons, a record high, the IEA said today.

"While coal demand continues to decline in the EU and the U.S. – although at slower paces than in 2023, China and India are set to see in 2024 another year of record-high coal consumption. China is on track for a 1% rise to 4.9 billion tons, and India’s coal demand is poised to increase by more than 5% to 1.3 billion tons—a level that only China has reached previously."

"Although the share of coal in China’s electricity generation has been declining in recent years with the renewables boom, Chinese coal power generation and demand remains strong. Coal still accounts for about 60% of China’s power generation, despite a surge in hydropower earlier this year after abundant rainfall."

1% per year growth is pretty dismal.  You called that "hot and getting hotter?"

Tesla is +74.6% over the last year.

Trudeau is now toast, just a matter of when Parliament next meets.

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn54elwep72o

"Polls indicate that if a Canadian federal election were to be held today, the official opposition Conservative Party would be handed a decisive victory."

The socialist party has indicated that they will pull the plug on Trudeau at the first opportunity.

"On Monday, NDP leader Jagmeet Singh for the first time called on Trudeau to resign, making the Liberal hold on power look increasingly shaky.

The NDP's House leader told broadcaster the CBC that its members would vote in favour of a no-confidence motion if the prime minister was still leader in the New Year."

This effects you how?  A non-confidence is highly unlikely. Waste of money when the election is not far away anyways.

Trudeau has won many elections and has served for a long time (started in 2015)... perhaps too long. I do not fear change, so I have no problem with a change in leadership.  Is P.P. my ideal replacement choice? no.
