From the Report
Excerpt Only
The following interview with Ezra Levant, author of the new book Fight Kyoto, was broadcast December 9, 2002 on the Cat Country Radio show Agritalk with Jim Fisher
Transcript by J. L. Jackson
Jim Fisher: First of all before we get to agriculture, specifically you warn 450,000 Canadians will loose their jobs in this dangerous treaty concocted by what you say are unaccountable foreign diplomats. Tell us more.
Ezra Levant: Absolutely, and by the way, in my book most of the terrible of the economic scenarios you just alluded to the hundreds of thousands of jobs lost. Those aren't from biased industry sources; those are actually studies put out by the federal government itself. And I have literally 300 footnotes in the book, showing where every single statistic comes from, because it's so important that we have a credible basis for our fighting Kyoto. When the government itself confesses to literally half a million jobs being threatened and a recession coming because of this, we have to take them seriously. [The treaty] was signed in Kyoto, Japan, five years ago--without any democratic scrutiny--by foreign bureaucrats and diplomats gathering in hotel lobbies and inking a deal that most Canadians didn't know much about. Now it looks like they're going to sing the treaty this week. But we still can fight it, because signing the treaty and enforcing it--implementing it--are two different things. We can't stop Chretien from putting his signature on the Kyoto Protocol, but we can fight like heck to stop him from forcing it down our throats.

| Quote: | | The treaty's being signed this week, but we still can stop it from being implemented. By the wa,y Japan ratified the treaty but later they announced they were not going to enforce it because it would just cause too much economic damage. That's my hope for Canada. |
Go Ezra!
