Mr Harper has now exposed the depths at which he and the Conservative Party will go to in undermining the thousands of scientists and world leaders around the planet who valiantly, tirelessly, heroically, feverishly are working to ensure a safe future for life on this planet.
"Global saboteur" is apt. (see http://greenparty.ca/en/node/3245)
Like Elizabeth, I don't have the words to describe how profound this betrayal of Canada and the planet is.
Climate change is the defining issue of our time, of our generation, of our future. Our response to it is our fate.
To have our Prime Minisiter undermining the future safety of Canada, of Canadians, of our children, our grandchildren all the life forms on earth is staggering. Incomprehensible. Unacceptable.
Mr. Harper clearly does not understand that he has just opened Pandora's Box. He has no conception of the power, the fury, that he has just unleashed.
Never place yourself between a mother bear and her cubs. Simple. They teach you that in Boy Scouts and Girl Guides. Mr. Harper should beware. His actions imperil every child's future -- not just in Canada but around the planet. Beware of the mothers and fathers who -- with infinitely deep love for their children -- and profound hopes for their future -- will go to any length to protect them.
With a new determination of steel -- we shall prevail in this campaign. We cannot lose. It is inevitable that we shall win.
Here's the news: slick PR, greenwashing, can never overcome the error Mr. Harper has made. It's not the political error I care about -- it's the undermining of our future safety that's the unforgivable error.
As an aside, the NDP proves its' irrelevance through it's deafening silence.
