Ontario needs to invest in EVs as a realistic Option.
CdnFox replied to Boges's topic in Provincial Politics in Canada
I have to say this is absolutely accurate. "Commuting is a fact of life for many Canadians. In 2016, 12.6 million Canadians reported that they commuted to work by car. For these commuters, the average duration of the commute was 24 minutes, and the median distance to work among those who had a usual workplace was 8.7 kilometres. And more importantly it's one of the most wasteful energy commutes because a lot of the time wines are being spent in traffic or idling at stop signs. So you grossly disproportionately reduce emissions when those commutes are made by electric engines which don't run while you are sitting at a stoplight. In fact if you follow the research the vast vast majority of people would be able to go to work and come home on a single charge, excluding those people who have to drive to different work locations like contractors or the like. And even for those people who can't make it the entire way, even if 50% of their drive is now by electrics and the rest is done by engine you've still cut carbon emissions radically. And hybrid engines these days produce less exhaust then ice engines that are revving and slowing constantly. Many of the hybrid engines today are only generators, optimized to run at a constant speed and output power. This is what computer experts have long referred to as the 92% solution. This is the premise that you can get 92% of the way to where you need to be at a reasonable price and high efficiency. For every 2% above that you want to go you double the price and you start introducing bugs and other problems to the equation. Hybrids are an excellent 92% solution which would radically reduce emissions drastically and wouldn't require a lot of new infrastructure to do it. -
Are you kidding? You can't BUY humor like watching this guy! This is the internal conflict that has always plagued the ndp. Workers vs activist. When the worker side is in charge you get Jack layton and form official opposition. When the activist side is in charge you get jagmeet and you're reduced below party status The ndp sounds like it's thinking about swinging back to being more worker focused. We'll see how that goes.

Wow you spend a lot of time fantasizing about the guy. Sounds like you've got a pretty serious little crush going on there

So what you're saying is that queer culture was ALREADY part of our regular lives and there's absolutely no need to add any more now! -
Right. musk has 14 children but he's all about the 'estrogen' I think we've discovered why you have so much trouble defining what a 'woman' is.

No you don't. That's just your traditional stock reply when you get busted for your stupidity. I'm sure you think you're really bright and you're somehow fooling us etc etc but most of the people here can see through your silly childish stupidity. I mean, not roblesmith obviously. But most of the others. You are as predictable and vacuous as Trudeau himself. No wonder you like the guy

The thing is carney doesn't really want to reunite Canada. He wants to put a band-Aid on the problems long enough to get what he wants and if it falls apart later then so be it. He's not going to actually build the Pipelines. He's going to say that he absolutely will today and stomp around and do some early preparations but he's already excusing his future failure. He's saying how he won't be able to continue if the provinces don't want to and talking about public sentiment for the projects like they're a major barrier and such So he'll go on about how he's building them and then say oh but we have to deal with Quebec and that'll take negotiations and then things will drag out and he'll keep telling quebec we would never turn on you your buddies and he will keep telling Alberta we'll build them as soon as we deal with these darn quebecers we're trying real hard honest, and nothing will get done. And eventually things will heat up and people will realize he's full of crap and there will be anger and resentment and he will step down and the liberals will try and say that the new person is an entirely new government and no problems in the past should be considered when thinking about the new guy. They hope to stay in the power forever like this

The only 'repartitions' owed to the Palestinians is a bullet. They're the ones who owe the debt. And it may wind up having cost them their chance at their own country. Even if israel left tomorrow gaza is devastated and barely able to sustain life. And i doubt the israelis will leave, they'll maintain control over that region for ages to make sure this doesn't happen again. That was the CHOICE gaza made. They will get what they have chosen.

Because you're a flat chested wuss and professional hypocrite, while they are highly powerful very successful men who've proven their skills at battle many times over. Kinda thought that was obvious

Actually you praise most of the things he did. Then you say he's pretty useless. Then you go back to praising what he did Sometimes you alternate. In this threat alone you've said that the carbon tax was very good and very bad and very good and very bad. The nice thing about you is if I don't like your opinion I only have to wait a couple minutes and check again

Is Canada sustainable? Can Alberta and Quebec get along?
CdnFox replied to August1991's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
I think because Carney's a banker he'll decide to mortgage the country to the hilt and then demand we pay it off because we're just tenants. -
LOL your emotional melt down is on repeat How does your brain think this works, like maybe i'm sitting here thinking "Wow, i didn't think much of it the first 37 times he posted it but now that he's gone to 38 i really do feel bad' ROFLMAO!!! Just give it another 2 or 3 hundred tries, i'm sure i'll start to feel terrible then Dude you're a scummy little nobody who very clearly lies his ass off and has nothing intelligent to add. Nobody, and i do mean nobody, cares what you're crying about now.

I think he would have absolutely been fine with trump cutting off the subsidies for EVS if it had resulted in savings for the gov't, But I think that the problem is trump took those subsidies away and then gave that money to someone else. So elon's lost the benefit AND there was no savings for the gov't. I suspect this fight is going to be going on for a bit now.

So now you're just rambling at random about nothing rather than addressing the points that we were previously discussing. There are occasions when it seems like you have little flashes of something worth listening to and things that contributes to the conversation. But a lot of the time you just come across like a mindless ldiot because it posts like this. Why bother if you're not going to say something sensible or stick to the topic?

ahhh so you're just resorting to banality and childishness in the face of facts. well.... it IS your 'thing'. You literally claimed the vaccine would cure covid Like i said your biggest problem is that you can't keep your lies straight. But at least we could say legitimately that covet appears to have been beaten. While some might argue that it was the vaccine or something else we can point to results. Climate change not only didn't get better it's gotten worse. It was billed as an effective tool for fighting climate change, so your comments might have some validity if things had gotten a lot better but weren't perfect but in fact it had no effect at all and things got worse And you obviously didn't read the article or actually look at the publication. That is NOT what the publication said, From the report you didn't read: Statistically significant emissions reductions range between โ5% to โ21% across the schemes (โ4% to โ15% after correcting for publication bias). Our study highlights critical evidence gaps with regard to dozens of unevaluated carbon pricing schemes and the price elasticity of emissions reductions. More rigorous synthesis of carbon pricing and other climate policies is required across a range of outcomes to advance our understanding of โwhat worksโ and accelerate learning on climate solutions in science and policy. They go on to elaborate. Your article took the average of those two numbers but the vast majority of the studies were closer to the 4 percent. BC for example was at 5 percent. (yes we made the report) There is no 'canada' figure because THE LIBERALS NEVER THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY STUDY IF IT WAS WORKING OR NOT. HOWEVER, despite the wording if you continue to read it's not a 4 percent permanent reduction overall, it's 4 percent reduction of the INCREASE. So, as was the case in british columbia, it was estimated that the carbon tax slowed the growth of carbon emissions by 5 percent or thereabouts. But carbon out put still went up. Climate change still got worse. The carbon tax was entirely ineffective at addressing climate change, it just meant that we hit the same level of carbon out put about 2 months later than we would have without it. Further as they note the studies are poorly done, they're often bias, and they are unable to describe HOW carbon taxes did anything, they just noticed that there was a reduction in output around the time the tax was implimented. But we all know that commonalty is not causality. So you looked up an article that got the facts wrong and didn't actually read the source. This is why you're wrong so often and you get so mad on this board. You take less than half a second to educate yourself and then speak like you're an expert and get called on it. The carbon tax did nothing to fight climate change LOL You are never more pathetic than when you try to pretend that you know what you're talking about
