Jaffer Denies Climate Change

Here is a quote published in the Edmonton Weekly VUE this week. It's from David Suzuki about Edmonton Strathcona MP Rahim Jaffer. Thought it was worth reprinting since his NDP opponent is an Environmental lobbyist. As they say some things can come back to haunt you. Right Rahim?

David Suzuki: In ’97 in Kyoto, you had groups like Alberta working very hard to subvert the Kyoto process; I remember [Edmonton-Strathcona MP] Rahim Jaffer, who was there, saying there was no evidence that global warming was even taking place. And at that time, there was still a lot of discussion how serious this was as an issue. In Montreal, there was none of that; no one was there as a delegate who would argue whether climate change was happening or not. And that was a huge step forward.

I wonder if after this abnormally warm winter, today is -5 no snow anywhere, its a brown out, if Rahim still believes Climate Warming is a myth. You know like the tooth fairy, Santa Claus, etc.

Well global warming is a fact. Warm winter wreaks havoc

Beloved Birkie ski fest falls prey to green winter
EDMONTON -- The 800th anniversary of the Birkebeiner legend won't be celebrated with an Edmonton race this year because there's no snow for the international cross-country ski event.

And it is only get expotentially worse. And niether the Liberals or Conservatives have a plan to deal with it. Which leaves only one party with electoral chances that does....the NDP.
