Alberta would need to join a cap-and-trade market somewhere for it to work. TIER still allows quite a bit of growth in emissions, so for Alberta to be able to grow with emissions, it would need to buy credits from places that actually reduced. Having a growing carbon market wouldn't fly, and the federal backstop would kick in. The European one is a lot more of a mess than the Quebec and California one, but has had a lot more excess credits to buy for the cheap(though they're coming up to the end of a phase so they'll probably fix those issues and copy the Quebec and California one more).

Correct, I haven't looked into it. That's why I asked if we could creat something similar and be ahead. When I see thing like https://www.google.com/amp/s/nationa...fb74a3d7e/amp/This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
It makes me think they are getting one by on the rest of the country so to speak. But, again, I don't know the details. This isn't the only thing I've seen that makes it seem like Quebec is gettin a better deal then most.

The key is in the cap.
The desire of the carbon tax is to reduce carbon emissions. If you just cap the emissions and reduce that cap to meet those reduction goals, the price starts to become irrelevant.
Tell the O&G industry they’ve got to cut their emissions in half* by 2030 and we can get the same “deal” as Quebec. Nothing about it would be good news for Alberta.

Trudeau to Welfare Fraudsters : “don’t worry about repayments”
I mean why should he care, it’s not his money he’s burning.

Remember that barbados trip trudeau was forced to cancel in february?
It's funny that a Canadair Challenger 600 - with ID blocked, is operating in barbados today don't you think?
USAF has a couple in afghanistan... USCG has one (just 1) kinda confused if it's operating or not - shows retired?
If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck - is it a duck?
There's some of our own provincial government is Hawaii right now. At least Trudeau isn't dumb enough to post pictures on his Instagram like these two idiots.
It would be tremendous irony if JT was undone by something superficial like this.

JT will just make some heartfelt apology, probably cry, say he was wrong and nothing will happen. Like with everything else. If Harper had been caught with half the stuff JT was, Canadian MSM would've hung Harper from the clock tower years ago. Stupid socks and looking like a hobo is more important to Canadian voters. GoFundMe for JT to get a haircut and shave?
So is our jet in barbados or what? Anything outside a random facebook post
You don't believe a facebook post that's just a screenshot of Flightradar24, with no date or other info on it, and even the screenshot time and facebook post time don't align?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Fucking lefty apologist.
there is a video of the full track from ottawa to barbados... With departures/arrivals removed once it departed the runway.
liveatc for barbados has been offline since the jet approached barbados. Still remains offline.

Aren't we all allowed to go on airplanes and vacations to wherever those planes fly to as long as we isolate and do all that bull shit when we get back?

I couldn’t care less, they aren’t breaking any actual rules.
If it were actually illegal to travel for pleasure, then that would be different. If we want it to be illegal to travel for pleasure then we should pass that law.
The more interesting part will be the mental gymnastics involved when a left leaning politician does it after the stink the media has made about conservatives.

Makes a good point, you can’t come to the podiums and keep saying our ICUs are full, our hospitals are overcapacity and staff are exhausted while jetting off to fun and sun. You lose all credibility and people will not trust you or follow the rules you put in place. This is not leadership.No Christmas vacation for thee. Grab the swimsuits and call the limo for me. Why do we listen to these politicians?
Lockdown for thee. No lockdown for me.
No Christmas vacation for thee. Grab the swimsuits and call the limo for me.
What is going on?
Why do we listen to them?
Why do we sit under the rain of their incessant, sanctimonious spiels about flattening curves and slowing the virus and caring for “your fellow citizens,” while they jet off to sunshine, beaches and island resorts for “vacations they had planned?”
