Rant of the day: I am not a climate change denier, I know it’s real and I know we need to do more to fight it. But destroying our economy, destroying millions of jobs associated with the oil and gas industry is not the answer. Quebec for example got (according to the info I found) $13 billion from Alberta in 2018. How was the bulk of that $13 billion generated? Yep oil and gas.
Climate change is real: yes.
Things need to change: yes.
Profits generated by the oil and gas industry should be used for research and development of new greener technology:
Already started.
The truth of this is that our transition away from oil and gas will take time. Millions of people are dependent on this industry to make a living and our national economy is dependent on this industry.
We still have a ways to go but if we all work together to make this transition work we will get there.
