All those running to win the election are promising absolutely ridiculous zero carbon targets. Twenty years? Thirty years? Might as well be tomorrow. Not going to happen. The entire world runs on the automotive industry and the oil that fuels it.
It's not just the car makers, it's all the support industries that feed and rely on it. Think about it, it's all of us. One of my sons works in retail automotive and his business is expanding like crazy. He travels all over Canada opening new stores and trust me, they're not going to close in the communities in which they are situated. Is the world going to shut down in 20 or 30 years so emissions can be eliminated? No. Do people actually believe this and do politicians actually believe they do? Seems so.
And the money, the billions they are all promising to hand out, all the while cutting taxes, is ludicrous. We already have billions in debt and deficit, so it's only going to get worse. Right now, no one trusts the inept and crooked Trudeau, no one has warmed to the beige Scheer, no one likes the hysterical May and no one wants Singh (for a lot of reasons). Where does that leave us? I predict many voters won't because they can't bear to.
I will and so will my children because it's a civic duty we have drummed into them. The whole thing is a crap shoot.
