How bout this question to Cdns: While you’re squeezed by high oil & gas prices to heat your home and fuel your car, would you like to give your hard earned dollars to rich oil & gas companies to clean up their pollution & buy another pipeline while they give their massive profits to shareholders?
This binary question is absurd. Global investment in clean energy is now 2x fossil fuel investment, creating more jobs & economic growth. Meanwhile, Big Oil demands taxpayers fund risky pipelines & carbon capture projects while handing massive profits to shareholders.
Economic growth now tops environment as priority in energy policy, poll suggests nationalnewswatch.com/2026/05/11/e...

MLAs are not unsafe in Province House. Closing down the second floor to the public is a cowardly move. They did it because some of the MLAs feel uncomfortable with the cuts, and won't admit it.
