This document discusses Canada's emissions levels and policies. It notes that Canada's emissions grew in 2017 over 2016, despite Liberal policy changes being implemented starting in 2016. It argues that Canada eliminating all its emissions would have little impact globally if China's emissions continue to grow. The document suggests focusing on clean technology, sustainable practices, and having all countries address environmental issues rather than just focusing on carbon taxes.

ENVIRONMENTAL, CORRUPTION AND
OTHER RANKINGS
@Justintrudeau who is fed information by @telfordk and @GMbutts has little or no interest in developing the natural
resources sector. Trudeau has been on record saying "Canada should be known for its resourcefulness and not its Natural
Resources"

TAXING IN POLLUTION
@cathmckenna
Where has Mckenna discussed sewage being dumped?
Where has McKenna discussed the cruise ship/emissions?
Where has McKenna discussed the carbon tax on imports?
Where has Mckenna discussed the BC failures on Emissions?

HOUSEHOLD COSTS / CARBON PRICING
How so? The carbon tax would cost people an extra $1,100 to
1,800 through higher costs. The tax rebate would be lucky to
cover 10% of the cost. Liberals are lying as they normally do
because they do not consider the complete past through of
the carbon to consumer goods, household expenses, etc.

It is the liberals that are dishonest as they never released
their carbon pricing economic impact, why?

Or Sewage being dumped

CARBON TAX AND PARIS
• Oil and Gas sector account for about 200 metric tons of emissions - https://www.nrcan.gc.ca/energy-
and-greenhouse-gas-emissions-ghgs/20063 . Trudeau needs a 15.2 metric ton elimination or that would
be like wiping out the oil and gas sector in 12 years.
• Higher carbon taxes to push more people off from driving - https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/mckenna-
denies-claim-carbon-tax-may-exceed-50-a-tonne-1.4565225
• Trudeau is not being truthful when it comes to how he will achieve the emissions targets
