CDN PM Carney says he Canada to be THE world’s leading energy superpower, in BOTH clean & conventional energy. B***S***
"Clean" will incl Fossil Fuel for hydrogen & natural gas, likely nuclear (think ENORMOUS cost overruns, missed production, mining on Indigenous Lands, permanent radioactive dumps)
