Even the overall target referred to in the November 12 statement was put in doubt just eight days later-this is how permanent these commitments are-when the Prime Minister implied to Premiers Tobin and Klein that in his misguided desire to look better than the Americans on this issue, perhaps a new target should be adopted by lowering GHG emissions to 1990 levels by the year 2007.
In 2006, GHG emissions were higher than they were in 1990.
GHG emissions had to have been higher in 2006 than in 1990, because the end date of 2007 had not been reached at the time of the statement, which means it had to have been 2006 at the absolute latest. Plus they would have said - reduce them to 2006 levels, which would have been lower than 1990. Why else mention 1990?
