I am fed up with politicians bamboozling the public with scare tactics, of which the infamous climate change is one. Al Gore and Obama with the rising water levels and the dying polar bears. All bunk.

How many of these Councillors have the UN handbook by their bedside table I wonder. Climate has always been changing. Sometimes it has been warmer, sometimes cooler. Ebb and flow from time immemorial. To get stuck on CO 2 is the biggest joke (not funny) of all. CO 2 feeds the world of living vegetation. Without it we die since vegetation produces oxygen. Don't these elected people know anything? We learned this in grade 6.

You can watch my deputation on this Youtube video about 15 minutes into it. I am the guy with the blue shirt and grey beard.

Well ,on a good note this is on the record, with both emails and inhouse session. We /or Gene will have the ability to address any more climate change chatter that occurs here. Most of the SDGs are based on "climate change" at our council and more important than Human Services (a debt. that struggles with a REAL crisis) . When you have a video of the CAO carrying ballots from election sites , it says a lot about how some of these radical lefties end up in a right wing municipality.

Why are we continuing to pay these people if they can’t even have a discussion with their constituents? Disgraceful

Quite honestly there is so much delusion going on, I wrote to my mayor in my small town and his response is, we don't have the pledge to C40 we signed up for on our agenda's therefore, because we don't discuss it, it doesn't exist! That's my best paraphrase of this puppet act that many of them really and truly have NO CLUE! We need to get inside their walls, meet with them and show them what they are facing! Along with the liabilities they could be accountable for!

Gene, a noteworthy effort made by you to get an ostrich head out of the sand ! The rebuttal was very much like Trudeau comments on the subject. An opinion based on the agenda of others who would control the world. Perhaps the current state of power generation in Germany would be a good example of what not to do ? They shuttered nuclear power plants in favour of green energy. They have to buy power from their neighbours to meet their own needs !

Anyone who wants to see a beautifully animated video story based out of Vancouver BC, on this subject, please consider watching and subscribing to Rising Tide Foundation and watch Cynthia Chung's story A Journey Out of Our Green Delusion

"Is it truly the case that in order to live in harmony with nature, industrial activity must be eliminated? Can green energy systems support our current world population and is it possible to have an advanced growing thriving world civilization while also enjoying growing, thriving ecosystems? In this first of a six part docu-series, The Rising Tide Foundation begins to answer these questions and much more."

Gene, haven't you heard, The debate is over! Unfortunately there never was a debate, only alarmism and hysteria. Greta is the poster child.

Fear is such a dangerous thing. A councilor living in the Matrix and in fear that she might need to change their mind based on new or ignored information.

Well, if there is a silver lining, it's that this former teacher is now a councilor, and out of the classroom indoctrinating young minds to her ideological mindset.

I suppose now she's our problem.

You should out her by name so that the rest of us know who to make unelected at the next opportunity.

Just sayin'.
