Disposable Plastics and a Disposable Prime Minister

William Watson, an economist and frequent contributor and commentator at the National Post said today that - "After banning disposable plastics, Trudeau may be a disposable prime minister".

"Banning single-use plastics is the kind of know-it-all nanny-ism that really riles people. His 'science-based' assurances are not reassuring. Perhaps Prime Minister Trudeau should be relegated to "the recycling centre for ex-politicians."

I, for one, am fed up with the Liberals' moralisms and prescriptions for the way I MUST run my life.

This latest preachy moral guidance, not even suitable for children, followed up a new report the Liberals obtained from Environment Canada written for it by Deloitte and Cheminfo Services.

As usual, government reports, written for a political policy purpose, particularly at election time, are notoriously biased and therefore self-serving.  This one is no different, except that it has a revealing  539 word disclaimer which pretty much warns that the report is "inadequate", based on no data and was tossed together in a hurry.

In other words, it is hard to distinguish such reports from lies.

Similarly, important parts of the recent inquiry report on the murders of Indian women are another excellent example of that.

Watson's idea of a "recycling centre for ex-politicians" for disposition of the husk of PM Trudeau is an interesting idea, but what would be the point?  Don't we have enough sludge and organic waste to deal with as it is?
