  1. ….”one is a genius,the other is insane”…
    Harper is the most evil politician on the face of the planet, just tune into any MSM comments page if you doubt it.
    I wonder what Steyer’s real connection to the anti-Keystone project is, surely he doesn’t stand to gain filthy MONEY if it’s stopped!

  2. I read that article about hyper-partisan Democrat Steyer, and my thoughts? “What do you expect from a pig, but a grunt?”

  3. Let me guess…artificially restricting supply by putting the kibosh on Keystone XL, the energy prices stay high and the billionaire is a net beneficiary of such a policy.
    Cha ching!

  4. All I’d to Hans’s comment is that the banksters have never forgiven Western Canada for defying them in 1935. A carbon tax would destroy Alberta’s economy for good, which is precisely the idea.
    As far as the banksters are concerned they were fiddled out of the chance to foreclose on Alberta and help themselves to a sea of oil free of charge by those blasted Socreds, who insisted Alberta’s oil wealth go to Albertans and not Bay Street. The National Energy Policy was cooked up by the Toronto banksters who bankrolled Pierre Trudeau, their attempt to bring Alberta to her knees and steal her oil. The carbon tax and the plot to kill Keystone are just their latest ploys.

  5. You know, oddly enough, I expect Stephen Harper to do what is in Canada’s best interests. I think that it is perfectly legitimate for him to advocate the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline. I think that it is perfectly legitimate for that advocacy to include contacting American politicians who might vote on it.
    I also think that, while Tom Steyer certainly has the constitutional right to, it is out of line for him to be demanding that Stephen Harper answer his questions.

  6. The problem is that Steyer is a billionaire. He was born with a silver spoon and has moved up to a 64 piece platinum tableware set over the years. While no doubt a very smart man, because of his upbringing and lifestyle he simply can not relate to the “little people”. His life is now devoted to idealism, while making buckets of money by creating numerous agenda driven non-profits (money shell game) and to be sure, some not so non-profits. Maybe he is a visionary, a man with a grasp of the BIG PICTURE as he likes to think of himself, but clearly he cannot vision the life of those living paycheck to paycheck and thus they don’t enter into his vision. HE KNOWS BEST as a member of the elite class.
    Climate change and alternative energy are his focus. He doesn’t know how hypocritical he sounds when he accuses Steven Harper of lobbying. You could put a mirror in front of Steyer’s face and he wouldn’t recognize that a lobbyist is looking back at him.
    He reminds me a lot of the current mayor of New York City. A man by the name of Bloomberg.

  7. There’s this bit in the Globe article:
    “The president “couldn’t [approve the project] fundamentally, since the work had not been completed and he had no choice but to deny the permit.”
    Rubbish. The work was complete, and that’s what State Department reviewed and approved. It was the White House added new conditions after the fact. I do sympathize with TransCanada; it’s absolutely no fun at all trying to do a major energy infrastructure project with a load of Green slime running the President.

  8. When a self-made person speaks, I generally pay a little heed out of deference to their demonstrated ability to be successful at something, namely wealth accumulation.
    When a self-made person’s progeny speaks, unfortunately I am sometimes suckered into momentarily listening to what they have to say. This should change.
    I suggest we develop a nomenclature that can identify these “born-into great wealth” types, so they can easily be recognized, and told to get back to playing in their sandbox of gold dust before they waste too much of our time.
    Perhaps something like “billionaire-in-law”?

  9. Steyer’s constitutional rights only exist in the U.S.A. I doubt that he is stupid enough to believe he is entitled to a reply from any Prime Minister of Canada but writing that letter and publicising it is just a stunt for attention to his anti-Keystone XL propaganda.
    Canada is free to persist in urging the U.S.A. to approve the pipeline and the U.S.A. is free to persist in turning it down.

  10. And he’s on a cliff with a unhindered view of the San Francisco Bridge.
    When the big one hits, we just have to hope he’s at home and not in his private jet.
    Like Suzuki, Gore, et al, he wants to see the world’s population reduced to “us four and no more”, but they’ve never said how they’ll accomplish it.

  11. Oh, he does more than remind me of Bloomberg.
    Steyer is collaborating with Bloomberg and Hank Paulson in funding a project called “Risky Business” (riskybusiness.org), which claims it will assess the future costs of climate change if nothing is done about it, to be released well in advance of the 2014 congressional election. A pretty transparent misinformation campaign designed to frighten people into acquiescing to carbon taxes and voting against non-bankster-approved candidates.
    Here’s an op-ed in the MSM in which the three banksters flog Risky Business:
    http://host.madison.com/ct/news/opinion/column/michael-bloomberg-hank-paulson-and-tom-steyer-assessing-risks-of/article_5d19c182-fc49-5302-91cc-7f39ef1b6353.html

  12. @Dick Slater: Thanks for the connection. Risky Business.org is run by Next Generation, one of those “non-profits” I referred to. Here is their mission statement:
    “Next Generation takes lessons learned from California, America’s largest, most populous state, and helps spread innovative ideas that can be enacted through public policy, private enterprise, families, and individuals.”
    But remember, Steyer is NOT a lobbyist, rather he’s a forward looking advocate …. or something like that.

  13. Yet I find it ironic that they are basing their risk assessment on completely debunked information coming from the IPCC. Shows once again that a good education, wealth and common sense are just as susceptible to brainwashing in the elite. Power does not create intelligence as Bloomberg,Steyer and Hanson continue to prove. They lap up the cool aid just as well as the brainwashed MSM.

  14. Hogwash. Bloomberg, Paulson and Steyer didn’t get where they are by not doing their homework. They know the IPCC reports are a pack of lies. All they care about is that carbon taxes are a foolproof way of making people like Bloomberg, Paulson and Steyer even richer, and furthering their goal of disinheriting the peoples of the Christian world and walking off with the world’s wealth. Their master promised them all the kingdoms of the world, and they intend to collect.
    The Flavor-Aid is for us. It’s not as easy as it used to be to cover up Ukrainian-style famines, and they have at least learned that it doesn’t always work—Ukraine buried communism, not the other way round. Moreover, it may not even be necessary to do us in if they can get us to commit suicide, and save them the trouble and expense.

  15. In Bloomberg’s case I feel you give him too much credit for being intelligent. Every policy he pushed was doomed to fail and a bit of research on his part would have confirmed it. His ban on large soft drinks, failed gun policies, war on salt, ban on feeding the homeless due to lack of nutrition labels, and other policies would indicate the man is a simplistic fool. On the rest of it and the ulterior motives I agree with you completely. I also believe Steyer is a power hungry social climber with his eye on the POTUS throne.

  16. Again, Canada is in a global trade war with forces funded by Saudi Arabia. Their object is to prevent oil development in Fort Mac, a direct threat to their interests.
    Harper should be extraditing all their agents form Canada. There is little difference between these agents and the cops who were selling info to the Hells Angels.

  17. Logic wont work here because Saudi oil doesn’t upset the tree huggers as much as that “dirty tar sands” oil that’s “destroying” the planet. Obama needs the brainwashed tree huggers and Hollywood for the mid term elections next year. We know he swallowed the IPCC cool aid and is hoping to maintain the status quo for the rest of his term. He doesn’t give a damn about common sense solutions or what’s best for the economy and there are too many “green” contributors to the Democrats to change course until after the 2016 elections. Steyer would be one of them.
