The Cone of Silence Over Kyoto



Do not say the word Kyoto to Conservative Environment Minister; that sensitive policy wonk Rona Ambrose, or she will refuse to be interviewed by you. Even though she is in charge of the next round of Kyoto talks. As the Calgary Herald columnist Don Martin discovers.

Don't publish a fictional novel about Climate Change if you work as a scientist for the Department of the Environment. Or ever sensitive Rona will call you and tell you NOT to attend your own book launch if you want to continue working for the department. Minister stops book talk by Environment Canada scientist

The PMO says he knows nothing of it......but hey its a good idea if the Minister clamps down on the beuracrats so they all sing from the same songsheet.....the Conservatives; Just say NO Kyoto......Ottawa plans cuts to green programs: documents

Ottawa plan hacks green programs


BLACK DAY FOR GREENS AS TORY BLUE TAKES OVER

Welcome to Ottawa, Alberta.

The Kyoto accord is the most worrying. Because if it was ever implemented as Paul Martin's discredited Liberals planned, it would have imposed impossibly steep reduction targets and severe economic pressures on what's become known as the Alberta Advantage - the most powerful and important provincial economy in Canada today.But while the Conservatives aren't about to tear up the United Nations agreement - and give the other three parties in the House of Commons their political hill to die on - at least Environment Minister Rona Ambrose is doing the next best thing. EDITORIAL: Rona is a realist


Now what was that about more open transparent government? No that's not a platform of the Harpocrites that was a reccomendation from Gomery It's still business as usual in Ottawa.....sadly lacking in the governments practice or its new accounatability bill.
