The tide will turn against extremist activism, because reality is not on their side – future climate scenarios are distant, theoretical, and rapidly losing their ability to scare people. At the same time, the world’s demand for petroleum products continues to grow. Time to fight back against indoctrinating extremism, but let’s do it on the battlefield we choose – not theirs. Read on…

God bless trudeau and all the UN delegates and all the hollyweirdos that fly private jets all over the planet, cruise the oceans in their yachts and keep consuming oil and gas at ever increasing rates so that I can keep my job. They really care. 😉
Oooooohhhh I don’t know Terry, I appreciate your optimism and I do hope you’re right but never underestimate the true intentions and especially the will of “extremist activism”. The world has a rather long and storied history of being governed and dictated to by a long line of sociopaths bent on having their ideas implemented. One idea is all it takes…feed that idea to a young and impressionable generation and presto! Next thing you know you’re invading Poland or executing millions of your own citizens because your paranoid.
Environmental activism should scare everyone, not because I think they want us living in energy poverty, would that it were so…no, much worse, it’s their end game that should give you pause. I see now “scientists” are calling for a significant reduction in the population to save planet Earth. You don’t have to be a Rhodes scholar to see where this is going. Someone should take a god damned bulldozer to the Georgia Stones.
I don’t know who thought of this phrase…John Groves I think but it goes something like this… “it would shock you to know as to just how tiny the population is compared to Canada as a whole that dictates to the rest of us the terms and conditions they force us to live by”. And It amazes me to no end how we let them get away with it.
I won’t say we’re screwed…but there’s nothing out there that makes me think otherwise.
Yepper The Nine Provinces & three Territories of the Confederation of Canada have been forced to duplicate all of the Government Documents in Two Languages — English & French. But the ” Nation of Quebec which used be the Tenth Province of Canada is an Uni-lingual “Nation” and is treated very Specially as it is the bastion of The Liberal Party of canada Voter Base.
This was truly revealed when Two Female Cabinet Ministers, who are from the English Culture: Plus One is also a memebr of Canada’s Indigenous People.
They were forced out of the Cabinet By Just in Trudeau using the Privy Council Office* to bring great pressure on The Indigenous Cabinet Minister who was the Attorney General Of Canada. The other Female was the Director of ensuring Government Contracts were not issuedwhen there was an apparent factor of corruption outstanding to be resolved. This Woman reported to the Attorney General who supported the decision made.
Both of These Persons stood for Ethical Matters in Government and honouring Their Oaths of Office when appointed by Prime Minister Just in Trudeau. P.M. Trudeau even became involved in a a direct conversation with The Attorney General He appointed until She advised Trudeau, as the Chief Law Officer of Canada P.M. Trudeau should not be asking either the Director who reported To the Attorney General or Herself as Attorney General to alter Her action of Support.
*The Clerk of the Privy Council Office is the TOP Bureaucrat of the Federal Government and following a process which began back in 1215 A.D. when the Monarch of the time King John gave authority to English Barons of the Time.
The Privy Council Office in Britain has been amended in the United Kingdom to prevent “The Final Arbiter” of all Bureaucracy would not be lodged in One Individual.
The only British Empire Colonyy forced to accept the Privy Council Office Concept with a Privy Council Clerk was the First Colony to released — Canada in 1867. The British Empire provided the Financing to compine the British North American Colonies into a Separate Country at the end of the American Civil War. In 1867 there were approximately One Million American Soldiers located not very Far from the Border.
The Other British Empire Colonies were not forced into a Privy Council Office concept; but this was an uncertain time and the Monarch: Queen Victoria had become a recluse after the death of Her Husband the dynamic Prince Albert. Therefore the British Empire Bureaucracy was in full flight of control.
Canada is the only remaining Privy Council Office Clerk situation. A situation which was greatly abused by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau when the Clerk was actually sent to “brow beat’ the Attorney General with Threats from the Prime Minister. She wisely recorded the Conversation. (Canada is similar to New York State — where as long as one of the two individuals is aware of the Recording it is legal).
The Clerk of the Privy Council resigned and the Special Advisor to the Prime Minister resigned. However there has been additional difficulties in how or if this actually happened.
Yes there is great difficulty in Canada since 2015. The latest report from Canada’s Financial Post is the Nation of Quebec will ‘toil’ successfully during 2020 while the 9 Provinces & 3 Territories will continue to languish. Oh Well the Privy Council Office is still with a Clerk selected from the Bi-lingual Bureacracy and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said He would choose an Unilingual country of Quebec over the remaining Bi-Lingual Provinces & Territories if Seaparation became part of the Political Arena again.
Just some recollections of an incipient Octogenarian who has truly tried to be aware of the Politicos which gather in the Ottawa-Hull collection(s) of self-interest.
“So what to do? Do we take up the fight against that energy ignorance, and try to reform the media? Good luck with that. Do we tackle the wind/solar/ignorance narrative head on? Good luck with that also – it is so intertwined with the climate-change-as-social-movement narrative that it’s an unwinnable war also. The world’s central bankers are now on that band wagon, for crying out loud.”
In other words, climate change is just another excuse for the globalists, who control those central banks, to cheat the productive classes of the western world out of their wealth and make debt-peons of us all.
Restore the right to issue money and regulate its value to the peoples of the western world—that is, take it back from the bankers who usurped that right—and you won’t hear another word about climate change.
Civil war. But hey this is Canada and such an action would require, well, action.
That is the thing though; terrorism actually works. Why do you think it always comes back as a strategy?
It won’t stop, until someone from extinction rebellion is beaten to death after gluing themselves to a train. It won’t stop until someone gets out of their car, and curb stomps that guy who refuses the use the bike lane, and refuses to pedal faster than granny walker speed.
The thing about beating terrorists, is that you have to be willing to do things that will actually scare them, more than you have been scared.
To win a war, step one is realizing that you are actually in a war.
If the energy industry was nationalized it would be going all-out full-speed, it is obvious the climate emergency scam is political not scientific, and the anti-hydrocarbon noise is really an anti-corporate anti-capitalism movement. Maybe in our glorious socialist future millions will be moved to camps in northern Alberta to mine the people’s oil sands by hand with shovels and buckets (zero unemployment!), there’s plenty of historical precedent for that.
I have to disagree with your first sentence. “If the energy industry was nationalized it would be run so badly it would need constant bail-outs.” is more apt. Keep in mind that sarcasm cannot come across on a printed medium without a tag.
And banning the tractor will result in more employment than banning the haul truck. Will result in less peons for the government to have to coddle, too (after the first couple of failed harvests).
The climate-extremism will stop soon after the first widespread winter fuel shortage in Canada. I hope you all noticed how fast the rail strike got settled this time, to prevent a propane shortage in Quebec. The farmers all showed up in Montreal on their tractors to protest, and the government fixed it immediately.
The straw that broke the camel’s back in France was a fuel tax. That’s the thing that got everybody who owns a car or a furnace to come out and beat up the cops all over the country, big cities or small. Regular Joe woke the f- up to the fact that he was going to go stony broke. The cost of fuel was taking food out of his kid’s mouths. Carbon tax. Save the world by starving your kid. They’ve been running around in the streets with those friggin’ yellow vests on ever since, been a whole year now.
So here in Canada, a place even more taxed than France, it will be something like that. The price of gasoline is $1.15 a quart right now, it can’t really go up very far from there without people being unable to heat the house and get to work. Can’t get to work, can’t pay the mortgage on your million dollar bungalow in Rexdale, you’re out in a snowbank with no car and no food. People think about that stuff all the time.
That’s how amazingly stupid the Liberals and their horde of yes-men in Ottawa are. They don’t care that people are against the wall, they’ll raise the tax regardless. Personally I think they’ll cause an uprising deliberately, just to have an excuse to punch down on the “deplorables”. I don’t have any evidence for that, it just feels likely to me.
So keep some fuel aside for your car and your furnace this year. Diesel fuel burns just fine in an oil furnace, for y’all suburbanites who don’t know these things.
And stove oil, with a little fuel conditioner, burns just fine in a Diesel engine.
