Carney is proving himself an environmental fraud. And I don't buy all the excuses people are advancing on his behalf. The TMX pipeline is an economic bust. Global oil and gas consumption is diminishing. Canada is NOT a low-cost producer so we won't be importers' first choice. And our country's energy priority must be renewables, the costs of which are dropping dramatically. I'd argue this is obscenely irresponsible policy (and Guilbeault's principled resignation is admirable).
A friendly reminder not to put the blog title as a prompt

A possible comrade-in-arms:
Emily Lowan.
She is not putzing around.
It figures that the minister of environment torching the planet is none other than Genocide Julie (Dabrusin). So on brand for her.
