Government is clueless folks and downright dumb. Example....we are about to have an $10/ CO2 tonne carbon tax imposed on fossil fuels to facilitate an 219 megatonne reduction in fossil fuel emissions.  Our forest fires  generate 300 megatonnes of CO2 per year on average. We spend $750 million per year  fighting forest fires. That , folks works out to $2.50/ CO2 tonne. But that is A-OK per our government as the forest fire ghgs are somehow different than fossil fuel ghgs..our government tells us that Canada's total emissions are 722 megatonnes of which 570 are fossil fuel generated. The 300 megatonnes from forest fires not included in the 722. Our government still thinks that fossil fuels are responsible for 85 % of global flows that determine atmospheric CO2 levels. Their staff unfortunately failed to advise them that 90 % of scientists agreed more than a year ago that it is 2% not 85%.  So, if you ever have thought your elected representative is totally out of touch...
