    This is such horse shit. The only way we aren’t going to fry ourselves is if we CURB the Oil and Gas sector. Full stop. The fact that governments are subsidizing those idiots is beyond infuriating. How is this okay with the populace? Why aren’t more people up in arms and protesting?

      People’s quality of life is heavily rooted in fossil fuels. Our food is delivered by fossil fuel trucks, many homes have furnaces and water heated with gas. We need programs to help shift us away abd use less energy and use greener energy sources. As great as it would be to do a full stop, a full stop of fossil fuels means a full stop in most areas of society.

      Lets fund transit, walkable neighbourhoods, and other infrastructure that will reduce our dependance on energy and fossil fuels.

      Just vote for the party that will do what you want! /s

      Yeah, where is that anti-corporate party again? No Canadian politician is going to turn their back on the absolute assload of cash that will be thrown their way from the petroleum sector.
