  1. On September 10/2021 Moe also said that he would not enforce vaccine mandates. A few days later he had a meeting with numb-nuts in Ottawa and less than a week later said – I’ve had enough of this, we’re enforcing vaccine mandates. Pretty quick 180, so I hope this time he will stick to his words but for now, I’m sceptical.

    1. This is why I’ll never vote Sask Party again as long as I live. I remember that “Our patience is at an end” speech. Total buffoon.

      Everyone needs to understand that Moe says directly in his statement that they are committed to net-zero. They are just saying they’ll do it by 2050, a whole 15 years later. Oooooh.

  2. Bln. I agree, it sounds great but he’s got a lot of making up to do before I trust him

    1. Good luck with that. Your alternative is the Dippers. Or do you imagine that the Communists Lite (Saskatchewan Liberal Party) will be any better.

  3. You should maybe read the stuff at the link before posting? “The CHP plants are fueled by a combination of coal, natural gas, biomass, and municipal waste.” That is where their heat comes from. Denmark is also a much less extreme climate, doesn’t get as cold or hot as Saskatchewan. They also have interconnectors, to get power when the wind doesn’t blow.

    By all means though, you go net zero, do your part. Start with ditching your phone, many components made from oil, and many others by slave labour, Racist!

    1. I guess Jenn can’t read.
      In Denmark, 66 percent of households rely on CHP plants for heating through the district heating system.

      This “isn’t” wind or solar lady.

    2. Peter, Completely agree. However along with ditching her phone, Jenn should give her car keys to a homeless person, and walk straight home and shut off the main breaker. No A/C ,heat, lights. refrigeration or computer for her to show us how committed she is to net zero.
      She can write her comments down and mail them to SDA.

  4. jenn, your avoidance of the facts makes your comment worthless. Denmark is always heavily dependent on imported nuclear generation from Sweden and coal- and gas-fired electricity from Germany.

  6. Hey Jenn, piss off you dunce. BY all means put your money where your mouth is and voluntarily freeze to death next winter with your wind and solar heating system.

  7. After Covid there is no way I can ever trust Moe but at least he’s saying the right things at the moment. He’s yet to actually stand up to Trudeau and his party of idealistic fools but maybe this is his moment.
    When the angry, scared Moe appeared in August of 2021 he lost me, he became a tyrant like the rest. His mandates put the nail into the coffin of many people, quite literally. He was my last hope to try and avoid the shots without losing my job and he crumbled. Again, best of the worst doesn’t cut it with me. Here’s to hoping he’s found his bravery and will stand up to Ottawa with more than words.

    1. After he did that I sent so many nasty emails to my MLA and to Moe that I’m almost positive I’m on a watch list over at the RCMP. The only threat I made was never to vote for them again, which I will find easy to do because Canada is a pretend country where politics are meaningless.

  8. “jenn, your avoidance of the facts makes your comment worthless.”

    This is exactly why posters of Jenn’s ilk should simply be ignored. Their one dimensional approach to an issue and their penchant for comparing apples to oranges is hardwired in their brains and no amount of debate or putting out the hard facts will ever change that behaviour. Belittling Jenn or insulting her intelligence are probably responses that she has become accustomed to and undoubtedly provide her with some sort of masochistic pleasure.

  9. And of course their residential costs of electricity are the highest in the world, running at about 3 times here in Saskatchewan. I can see your monthly electrical bill going from $100 to $300 and then triple again as you no longer have Nat. gas to heat your home but must rely on electricity.

  10. Given that “net zero” this side of depopulated, pre industrial squalor is pure fantasy, Moe should condemn the premise. The closest we could get would be a fully electrified economy with triple the grid capacity virtually all based on nuclear power with whatever increased potential exists in hydro, a project that would take incredible commitment and at least another 50 years.

    1. It could be done. Ontario did it starting in 1972 with Pickering culminating in Darlington. Saskatchewan’s problem is that it’s grid is too small to accommodate any large NPPs such as found in Ontario, France, South Korea, Japan. But with effective power sharing agreements and infrastructure with Alberta, it’s entirely possible over that time frame.

      I agree with your guesstimate of about triple the grid capacity. The single largest problem is the capacity limits for municipal distribution. It cannot begin to handle the amount of load that full electric transport would demand.

    2. ATCO isn’t putting in any new lines to handle the projected increase in load. Zero.

  11. Your thread title includes: … Sask can’t do it …..
    This seems to imply that it is a worthy goal but that Sask is just not up to the task — maybe by 2040? or 2050? but not 2035.
    Whereas in reality it’s just an insane idea can can never EVER obtain in the real world.

    Damn it, so much conservative commentary aids in legitimizing dangerous bogus ideas.

  12. Anyone who spells Jen with two n’s is a cunnt.

  13. You read us right. It’s a barren place and we are horrid people. Don’t visit, don’t even travel through. Best to ignore us, forget we exist if you can manage it, thanks.
