Ed Stelmach can't be trusted on climate change
Bumbling PC Leader goes into fulminating rage over Alberta Liberal climate
change plan
Edmonton - Safely ensconced in his Tory bubble and staying away from real
voters, bumbling PC Leader Ed Stelmach again repeated his fibs last night
about the Alberta Liberal climate change plan.
Between foaming at the mouth and running down dead prime ministers at his
Calgary speech last night, Stelmach again blurted out the nose-stretcher
that the Alberta Liberal climate change action plan would cost over 300,000
jobs - essentially, every job in the oil sands energy sector.
The Alberta Liberal climate change action plan, announced in the first week
of the campaign, would establish hard caps on industrial greenhouse-gas
emissions in five years. It would also establish Alberta as a leader in the
green economy, creating thousands of jobs in research, development and
renewable energy.
At some point during the campaign, Stelmach must be held accountable for his
fibs and disinformation on climate change, which he has yet to back up.
That's what a real leader would do.
In related news, the Conservation Voters of Alberta rated the Alberta
Liberals' platform the best of all the major parties this election with a
grade of B+. The NDP and Green Party received a B, the PCs and Wildrose
Alliance received a D.

environmental platforms can be found here:

It's time for a change to get the job done right.
