Newly released federal documents state Canada needs energy diversity


By Mike De Souza, Postmedia News August 5, 2012
OTTAWA — A dependence on fossil fuel resources is making the country vulnerable to a planetary “mega trend” toward low-carbon energy that “will affect the whole of Canada’s economy,” Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver was told in newly released internal briefing notes.

“While Canada has an enviable energy resource advantage, its future success cannot be taken for granted,” said the briefing notes. “It must make smart decisions now in order to get ahead of emerging challenges. The country will need to further diversify its energy sources, ensure that it has secure access to global markets and find ways to meet the growing demand for energy at home in ways that are environmentally sustainable and publicly acceptable.”

Noting that Canada was last among G8 nations in terms of clean energy investments, the briefing notes prepared by bureaucrats at Natural Resources Canada for Oliver after he was appointed to cabinet in May 2011, explained that the growth of emerging economies such as China and India was one “mega trend” influencing the economy and demand for resources and energy....................http://www.edmontonjournal.com/technolo ... story.html

Every single one of these "clean energy investments" is a money sucking pig. Every damn one! These rent seeking taxpayer bleeding parasites can't stand that Harper is slowly turning the screws tighter on their scam and it makes me so happy to see them squeal like pigs. Squeal you bastards, squeal!

"Environmentally sustainable" is another one of their many buzz words that they use to try and manipulate the energy file. Another is the blatant lie that the world is moving away from fossil fuels and if we're stupid enough to not throw billions at their ideas then we just might end up an impoverished state like North Korea. These assholes both infuriate and make me sick at the same time.

The world moving away from oil . What planet are these people inhabiting?

MCGuinty solar and wind energy follies will rescue Canada, providing energy diversity. Too bad they may play a role in bankrupting the province of Ontario.
Diversification = De-WORSIFICATION.
