bush_cheney2004 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Posted June 9, 2011 Attracting and vigorously pursuing foreign investment is STILL a matter of policy in Canada. But that does not equate to Canada not having capital to invest in anything she chooses to. I mean seriously B-C... I don't think you are serious at all. The record is clear when it comes to the history of tar sands development, regardless of "choosing" to do so or not. As for "anything she chooses to", the list of choices is limited by available capital, and was in this case. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.
bush_cheney2004 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Posted June 9, 2011 (edited) All that being said, Gentlemen, there are many energy opportunities available to Canada now. Is there value to crafting a new National Energy Policy (try to get past the historical baggage)? Something that can guide the country's decision makers to clean, affordable energy. Sure...but who will pay for the path to clean, affordable energy? The economic rules for production, distribution, and consumption do not change for green energy. Capital will flow to opportunity, not ideology. Edited June 9, 2011 by bush_cheney2004 Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

Citation please, including that Canada is devoid of financial capital for investments in national infrastructure and manufacturing programs. Thanks. Quote
