Exile started this thread in the forums and Friend of USA also sent me the story. (Hat tips to them!)
It reminded me of a couple of other times I made reference to the Liberals’ record on the environment. One was just before the last election, so naturally it wasn’t covered by the mainstream media at all since it would have made the Liberals look stupid, and of course the media make it their job to make conservatives look stupid, not liberals; and the other one was just last December. The similarity is amazing though. Taken together, they paint a rotten picture of Liberals and their lies about how lousy “their Canada” is doing compared to, say, the evil but ever-cleaner USA as led by conservative Republican folks is doing. Again, that’s conservative Republican folks, not greenies or libbies. And no Kyoto. Fancy that.
From December 2004: Pollution down in US. Bad news for environmentalist industry.
I’ll reprint my post from June 2004 just before the election: OOPS! Liberal Pollution is Up!
In their latest ads, the one in which they show a close-up of a handgun pointed at the viewer, the Liberal Party also chose to show this quick picture of nasty pollution.
The implication is that not only will Conservatives “change Canada” so as to allow you and your babies to be killed with guns, but also they will allow the world to disintegrate and basically die by being polluted to death, because Conservatives are just that stupid.
OOPS!
The NAFTA environmental agency says Canada is moving more slowly than the ever-so-politically-conservative United States as currently led by George W. Bush, right-wing conservative Republican, in curbing pollution.The news came last Wednesday, Canada’s annual Clean Air Day, before the Liberal ads were released, but likely after they were produced by the Liberal ad firms we’ve all heard so much about in the “sponsorship” scandal.
In its 8th annual Taking Stock report, the Montreal-based Commission for Environmental Co-operation (CEC) concludes that when it comes to curbing pollution, the Liberal Party-led Canada is lagging far behind the conservative, right-wing, Republican Party-led United States.
Total North American emissions declined by 18 per cent from 1998, the report said, while Canadian emissions rose three per cent.
Commission executive director William Kennedy says the discrepancy can be attributed to Canada’s lack of federal air-quality legislation.
In 2001, Canadian industrial plants released almost 2.7 million kilograms of hazardous chemicals, the study found.
In other news, the Green Party in Canada uses plastic lawn signs to drum-up support.
