Canada, the land of fossil fuel opportunity

The World Bank warns us of 4C-6C within this century.

The World Bank warns us of 4C-6C within this century. Globally, nations(194-5) struggle to avert climate disaster. To avoid financial penalties, Canada is withdrawn from the Kyoto climate agreement.  Kent, Harper “green” washes Canada, “supporting(?)” last chance global binding deals by 2015 to avert dangerous climate change.

Marketing Canadian fossil-fuels worth trillions, Canadians are blitzed with “clean” coal, bitumen, natural gas safety. Little or no risk of bitumen spills, tanker traffic accidents, eco-system/environmental degradation, or disastrous climate change from “man-made”

GHGs are “marketed.”

NDP favours refining bitumen in Canada for “Canadian” jobs.  Conservatives, Liberals, NDP are on board this “gravy” train.

Harper, Clark, Redford, Wall governments are totally committed to “marketing” benefits from “Canada’s” fossil-fuels. Saskatchewan’s Brad Wall appealed to Obama to approve the XL pipeline.

Trillions of profits “marketing” fossil-fuels globally will bring Canadians “unbelievable” opportunities: jobs, training, government revenue, health care, education, schools, social services.

“Radicals” want the tarsands shut down? “Radicals” obstruct Canada and Canadian commonwealth?

Foreign “radical environmentalists” with “deep” pockets oppose?  Unpatriotic Canadians say “no?” Dare to “demonstrate” against tar sands, shale gas and oil extraction, coal shipments, Arctic “unconventional” oil, LNG plants, pipelines, degradation of eco-system/environmental protection laws?

Canada is the land of fossil-fuel opportunities, “if” you consent! Fraser Institute touts Canadian wealth mobility allowing “social” movement to upper classes.

Super-rich plutocrats, elite financiers, banks, fossil-fuel industry, corporatocracy, their media, cares for “your” support for more subsidies, tax concessions, and less regulation for “their” fossil-fuels.  Cut undeserved social “entitlements” to balance Canadian revenue budgets is their bottom line.

You work hard and are still “poor?” Your “earned” benefits are called “entitlements?” What is your bottom line?

A “sham” Canadian “democracy?” Improper conduct? Every element of horrendous climate crimes? Criminal intent? What about prosecution for “profiting” from murderous criminal climate change by 2015? Too “rich, too powerful” to prosecute?
