| And why did the table look like a giant toilet seat? Because they were expecting a lot of bullshit to fly. Usually when this group get together, you need a shovel to clean it up afterwards. There was a lot of differances in opinion this time, but I must say, they kept the bullshit to a minimum. Kud... |

| If it does work and emissions go down, then the government will run out of money before it can reach the next stage because nobody will be paying taxes. Cap and trade works better. Unfortunately, it is very likely that a cap and trade system will be full of corruption, especially if it is a global ... |

| Investment in FUTURE ENERGY SOLUTIONS WORKS BEST! Do you not understand the potential market for Canadian made energy solutions? If we focused on that alone we could avoid much of what is burdoning the rest of the world right now. Well, go ahead and invest in it. I hope it works out for you. I wish... |

| I would really like to know how Dion thinks his plan will reduce carbon emmisions. As I said in a previous topic, taxes did not stop people from drinking, or smoking, and they will not stop driving their vehicle, or heating their home. Steel can not be made without burning coal. Steel is what most o... |

| I don't have a lot of investment in RRSPs. About 10K After 30 years of working, I have about 70K in equity in my house. That is about the only safe place to put your money really. A place to live will always be worth something, where as, my investments in life science and technology are now worth ab... |

Guess they just hate anything they don't understand...like music, literature, film, tv, sculpture...well pretty much everything except guns and greed. You rea... |

| Did taxing cigarettes make people quit smoking? Did taxing booze make people quit drinking? Will taxing carbon make people stop heating their house? That is the biggest problem with the green shaft. It does NOTHING to actually lower carbon emmisions. Cap and trade is a farce too. Buying the right to... |
