    He grossly exaggerated the effect of the carbon tax on inflation for starters.

    Look, I've said for months you guys have won the war against action. Embrace it revel in it, you know you wanna.

    And yet Poilievre just pretends he gives a shit about climate change and has a plan to deal with it.

    Polls have consistently shown that a majority of Canadians are concerned about climate change and support measures to rein in rising emissions and keep the planet from warming much more than 1.5 degrees C hotter than pre-industrial levels, a tipping point after which climate-related problems become much worse.

    Since the Paris accord was inked, Canada has been the worst performer in terms of reducing emissions of any member of the G7. And that is on the government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who proved that words are cheap. Now, at least, there seems to be a semi-credible reduction plan in place.

    Mr. Poilievre is in a trickier spot. In March (2023), an Angus Reid poll showed that just 12 per cent of his supporters believe climate change is a “top issue” facing Canada. And only last year, delegates at a federal Conservative convention voted against adding “climate change is real” to the party’s policy book. That is the CPC base. But the views of that base are not aligned with the majority of Canadians.

    Poilievre seems quite aligned with his base of support and I guess we'll see what the base does when he finally announces his plan. I suppose they can always blame how much more Poilievre's plan will cost Canadians on Trudeau.  That's always an easy sell.

    Today's polls say majority of Canadians say affordability is the problem. Nobody cares about CC, because of Trudeau.

    Have you submitted your conclusions and why they matter to the IPCC?

    I mean it's entirely possible this forum really does have the brightest critically thinking people on the planet but how would anyone know if you keep it all to yourselves?

    Actually it was just a tidbit of info that I had just read. I thought was interesting. When you read about the changes going over 1000's to millions of yrs.  It leaves a lot of question for people that dont believe everything man says.  Like what caused changes before man? But I see you and you little buddy Mike had a laugh. Good for you guys.

    Why on Earth are you in here wasting your time trying to get thru to us troglodytes?

    Have you presented your conclusions and how you arrived at them to the IPCC or any number of highly reputable scientific academies and institutions around the world?

    If you're right you'll be in line for a Nobel Prize, millions in research funding, high schools will be named in your honor and of course, you'll risk being buried under a pile of panties that would make Beelzebub Himself blush.

    Yup millions in research funding, to get that you have to say man is the problem. If not you were shamed. Lol. Follow the money. And there's lots of it. But one fact I always come back to, is we've been warming for 10000 yrs. Are we coming to the end of it? Could cooling supporters from the 70s still be right in the next 10 - 20 yrs? And if so,will Trudeau, Gore and others stand up and say we saved the world?

    I think that is overconfident.

    Their military is prideful and happy to fight to the death for their motherland.

    There is an existential crisis in the west.

    If China went to war with the US, the will of China would easily overpower the technological advantages that the US has.

    Both countries know its a lose lose war, however.

    Not sure about that. People can change, but China has never been to war in a long time. Equipment never really proved in battle.

    But PP's a miracle worker. He's gonna reduce the deficit, increase NATO funding, reduce crime requiring more cops and prisons and make everything better by starting by throwing away $12 billion worth of carbon tax revenue.


    While the rest of us have trouble with grocery prices without cutting our income. .Can he turn water into wine too?

    Just do the opposite of Trudeau. It won't happen over night, but it will happen.
