More climate change nonsense from a nominally conservative pundit

Chris Selly, a writer for the National Post is clearly a climate alarmist, spreading the alarm to all and sundry because he has frightened himself.  This is proof that even conservative writers can easily be duped.

If carbon dioxide produced by human activity was a real cause of theoretically harmful climate change, Carbon taxation might be a reasonable thing to do.

However,  how can reasonable citizens trust politicians and their governments who are always grabbing more money from taxpayers for their often corrupt, wasteful and goofy projects and undeserved pensions. 

Because of this, taxation of carbon dioxide production by motor vehicles, home and building heating in our near Arctic climate, and industrial activities, is not an acceptable measure. 

Moreover, since Canada's contribution to world carbon dioxide production is so inconsequential and miniscule compared to the so-called carbon dioxide 'footprints' of India, China, the USA and other massive industrialized economies, going nuts to create a Carbon Tax is not only unnecessary, but stupid, and only amounts to virtue signalling how marvellous in their own minds our politicians are. 

Unfortunately, even conservatives, like Selley, have drunk the poisoned coolaid spread by the UN IPCC, Al Gore, Suzuki and the other loony priests of climate change.  The methods adopted by the Saskatchewan government and other non-Liberal players to sequester carbon dioxide is a fairer and more effective way to do the job, if it must be done.
