Aged hippy and professional agitator David Suzuki was in Alberta yesterday. He only goes to Alberta to shout at them for being successful; the province doggedly refuses to drink the AGW kool-aid and continues to enjoy booming economic times.
Suzuki would far rather Alberta decimate its economy by closing up the tar sands and clubbing its citizens into green submission with carbon taxes.
The worst part of Suzuki’s latest rant was his rank hypocrisy over the green shift. He said this of PM Harper’s dismissal of the Liberal policy:
“You don’t dismiss a major proposal like the carbon tax and just say,
‘That’s crazy.’ What kind of discussion is that? At least it should be
on the table so the public can begin to understand what it is.”
Dave only wants a discussion when the topic suits him. Remember this:
Let me ask David Suzuki a question, using his own words:
on the table so the public can begin to understand what it is”
Hippy Dave wasn’t done talking his way into trouble yet, he went on to say:
you say carbon tax, it’s like saying National Energy Program. In Alberta, you say NEP, people go berserk. What kind of a
modern country do we have when we don’t have a national energy plan for
the country?”
Let me answer that one, Dave. We have the modern kind of country that we like to call ‘free’. Or as free as we can make it these days. Sorry if that rains on your marxist totalitarian parade, but there it is.
