“Net-Zero Tyranny”

“The “climate change” movement is huge business; the billionaires pushing this scrofulous narrative have it all figured out. They have been investing in plant-based fake meat foodstuffs to reap the profits once the war on farmers has been won… If these highly processed foods are not healthy, too bad. The earnings will line the WEF elites’ pockets.”

Staying late in the shop that night cost Jean-Claude Amani his leg – but it may have saved his life. Then again, had he closed up a little sooner, maybe none of it would have happened at all.

It was about an hour after dusk, the end of the first working week of last month. The rain that had fallen earlier was clearing, although lightning still occasionally illuminated the outline of Mount Nyiragongo, the smouldering volcano that has long imperilled the millions living near its foothills in the east of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Let’s get something straight off the top: I’m not suggesting we abandon our climate goals — we need to adjust them. Adjust. That’s the key word, because right now, across all levels of government in Canada, we are charging ahead with unrealistic climate policies that don’t line up with economic reality or practical science. And if we don’t course-correct soon, we’ll keep driving investment and opportunity out of this country.

Ask families in Germany and the UK what happens when more and more supposedly “cheap” solar and wind power is added to the national power mix, and they can tell you by looking at their utility bills: It gets far more expensive.

The idea that power should get cheaper as we get more green energy is only true if we exclusively used electricity when the sun is shining and the wind is blowing.

At the precise moment that Canada was handing electoral victory to one of the world’s most vocal boosters of green energy, 60 million Europeans were plunged into a catastrophic blackout caused in part by green technology.

And in Alberta, at least, last week’s blackout in Spain and Portugal is being cited as a preview of coming attractions if the green visions of Prime Minister Mark Carney come to pass. “Albertans would be left to freeze in the dark,” said Alberta Premier Danielle Smith.

On April 28, the conjoined power grids of Spain and Portugal plunged into complete shutdown, leaving both nations without electrical power for 10 hours. Grid operators were ultimately forced to reboot the system from a cold start; the “nightmare scenario” according to an analysis out of University College Dublin .
