Well ... if the AustRALIAN PM says so, then it MUST be okay!

Whereas:

- Canadian Environmental Policy should not be determined based on who thinks we should do what (i.e. imagine the Taliban saying, "Canada, you should start bombing Israel", and Harper replying, "Well, I'm really encouraged that the Taliban want us to join them in hate mongering and fear propaganda ...");
- The Asia-Pacific Partnership regroups 6 whole countries, while Kyoto is somewhere near 150;
- Mr. Harper illustrated his sharp understanding of Canadian policy decision-making when he said "Australia can't make that decision unilaterally" with respect to our joining the partnership;
- Nuclear energy IS NOT ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY!!!


Be it resolved that:

- I shake my head in dismay at the sheer awe of it all;
- The Honourable MISS Ambrose be replaced by a toaster oven, preferably one that is NOT nuclear powered and does not conform to Kyoto, as that would shut down the Canadian economy and require us to take all the cars off the roads and the planes out of the skies;
- ... that's enough for now. Any suggestions?

Comments:
Because I have taken the habit of playing slightly devillish advocacy, to your angelic partisan rants, I ask you what the difference between a government that signs Kyoto and doesn't respect it versus a government that didn't sign Kyoto and knows that it is not respecting the targets.

Maybe if we were already meeting Kyoto targets, the new government's position could be considered scandalous. Since we are not, in can only be considered as rather logical.

I know some single men who might trade their toaster ovens for Miss Ambrose.
