The Kyoto Thingie
Okay, so the Opposition parties all got together and voted this bill through the House of Commons and the bill states:
The bill gives the government 60 days to table a detailed plan for meeting Kyoto targets to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions by 6 percent from 1990 levels. It also compels the government to set fines or jail terms for businesses and industries that over-pollute.
"They are bound to it. It's the law of the land," said Liberal Party MP Pablo Rodriguez, who sponsored the bill. "The prime minister cannot cherry pick laws. He's not the new emperor of Canada."
The implication from the above is that Pablo thought that Paul Martin and Jean Chretien were past emperors of Canada.
Too bad Emperors Paul and Jean were so busy filling their friends pockets with taxpayer money when they should have been busy trying to get their Kyoto numbers in place. Afterall, wasn't it a Liberal that
signed us up for this in the first place?
And as they say in the tv commercial:
" We Didn't Get It Done! "
" that's not fair...it's not easy to set priorities "|
For those of you reading this that are not Canadian, the irony of the centered wording above is that in the Liberal Leadership campaign those words were uttered by the two frontrunners. Of course, the current Conservative Party will not let go of this playing a tv comercial over and over to remind the Canadian public what a bunch of idiots the Liberals turned out to be during their last run at governing this country. But the funniest part of this is our Liberal leader Stephane Dion thinks in French and when he tries to convert his thought to English it all comes out wrong. "It's not easy to set priorities" is just one of his faux pas since he became leader. |
I love my dog Kyoto. I let him pee
on the gates over at Stormont.
