Don't get me wrong, I realize we need to diversify our economy away from the US. Not sure how practical that is, but it sounds good. But just looking at how much we subsidized the oil/gas magnates by almost $30 billion last year and now we're handing more isn't away to deal with our carbon footprint

Living in the north all I've seen is that all the resource extraction in the three territories doesn't see much benefit. Workers flown in and out from down south and leaving a poisoned wasteland behind to be moped up. All while the friends of neoliberals counting their dividends and bonuses

When it comes to Liberal government promises, I'm afraid I don't have a lot of faith. And then there's the attack on unions rights:

Wouldn't quite call gutting Canada Post, the elimination of 40000 jobs, and renigging on efforts to provide more mental health supports in the north and rural communities a step forward, but hey at least we're on track for being a petro-state!
