One of the least controversial and most effective ways to address climate change is to adapt to it.
The other strategy — mitigation — is a long-term program that will have no discernible effect on the frequency of severe weather for decades, and is reliant on global action rather than initiatives by Canada alone.
This is the scam Carney loves most.
Electric vehicle sales in Canada have fallen sharply after federal and provincial governments cut rebate programs, according to new figures from Statistics Canada.
Blacklock’s Reporter says the first quarter of 2025 saw the steepest drop in zero-emission vehicle sales since pandemic lockdowns.
President Donald Trump overturned California’s authoritarian ban on gas-powered vehicles on Thursday, signing a resolution approved by Congress last month.
California became the first state in the nation to pursue a phase-out of gas-powered cars, attempting to halt all new sales by 2035 and effectively force its citizens to purchase electric vehicles. After Trump’s move, Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., who is currently letting Los Angeles burn by not responding to riots there, signed a reciprocal order reaffirming the ban, while Rob Bonta, the state’s far-left attorney general, filed a lawsuit against the move.
The market share for electric vehicles tumbled in the first quarter of the year to the lowest level since early 2023, new numbers show, raising doubts about the federal government’s aggressive targets for battery-powered vehicles.
Zero-emission vehicles accounted for just 8.7 per cent of all new vehicle registrations in the first quarter, down sharply from 18.3 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2024, according to Statistics Canada.
Joly says the Libs intend to revive the subsidy for rich people to buy EV’s.
Carney and pals are likely heavily vested in the green-scam to liberate your money for their gain.
Although the Carney government may have dispensed with the wildly unpopular consumer carbon tax, Environment Minister Julie Dabrusin confirmed this week that they’re staying the course on an environmental policy that’s almost as controversial.
In the House of Commons on Monday, Dabrusin said there would be no changes to a Trudeau-era plan to ban the sale of gas-powered cars by 2035.
‘Climate Change’: Grift of the Century, Part III
Despite President Donald Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Agreement on climate change, the World Economic Forum (WEF) and UN executives and bureaucrats doubled down this year at the poorly attended WEF gathering in Davos — could world leaders possibly be starting to catch on? — and proclaimed that nothing can stop their radical transformation of the world in the name of “climate change.”
“We are already collaborating at a scale where no one can stop; not one country, not one leader making a decision, because it’s just the right thing to do globally,” announced Damilola Ogunbiyi, CEO and Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for Sustainable Energy for All.
Among gambling addicts, it’s called “chasing your losses,” making ever larger and riskier bets to try to win back the money lost for initial bets.
Canadian politicians are now chasing their losses on electric vehicles (EVs).
By the time the environmental permits are signed off for a new TNT plant in Sweden at the end of this year, Russia will already be producing explosives at a new facility.
Swedish Ballistics (SweBal) is aiming to tap into Europe’s rush to rearm itself by opening what will be the EU’s second factory producing military-grade TNT, used in the production of artillery shells, landmines and grenades.
The firm hopes to produce 4,500 metric tonnes annually by the end of 2027, which will be enough for Europe to produce roughly 450,000 rounds of 155mm artillery ammunition.
Now I understand why Carney wants to hitch Canada’s wagon to the EU. They think like he does.
A few years ago, Li-Cycle was one of the biggest players in electric vehicle battery recycling in North America, providing a roadmap to a circular, sustainable economy for electric vehicles.
But just last month, the Toronto-based company filed for bankruptcy protection in the U.S. and Canada after years of struggling to get a facility off the ground in Rochester, N.Y. The company said the planned hub would have been able to extract lithium and other critical minerals from recycled material to actually build new EV batteries — a crucial step that North American recyclers haven’t achieved on a commercial scale yet.

Well, Canada’s electric vehicle policies are playing out exactly as I predicted. Which is to say, they’re a disaster.
Back in November, in the immediate aftermath of Donald Trump’s re-election, I wrote in these pages that, whatever else that election might mean for Canada, it would prove big trouble for the Justin Trudeau/Doug Ford EV scam.
After Justin Trudeau, we now have a new Liberal prime minister who is also ardently net zero, but more cunning and better connected to the global eco-zealotry establishment.
Former prime minister Justin Trudeau’s carbon taxes, EV subsidies and net zero targets are without a doubt the key factor in Canada’s anemic GDP and doubling of the national debt.
Now we have a new Liberal prime minister who is also ardently net zero, but more cunning and better connected to the global eco-zealotry establishment.
Mark Carney has served as co-chair of the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ) and UN Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance.
With the Trump administration back in the White House, America has an opportunity to restore commonsense energy and manufacturing policies after years of radical environmental overreach. One of the most glaring examples of this overreach is the electric vehicle (EV) push — a movement championed by progressive elites that, under the guise of sustainability, threatens to undermine national security, weaken domestic industry, and entangle our economy further with the Chinese Communist Party.
A massive blackout left 55 million in Europe in the dark—just as renewables peaked at 78% of grid power, exposing the fragility of unreliable energy dependence.
Imagine taking the subway to work when the train comes to a sudden halt halfway between scheduled stops. You pull out your smartphone to go online and see what the problem is, but you have no reception – no cell signal, no internet.
Hours later, rescue workers arrive to extract you and your fellow passengers from the stalled train. You make your way to the street in hopes of taking a taxi or an Uber. But without your phone apps and with credit card machines inoperable, you are forced to search for an ATM—only to discover those aren’t working, either.
One of the realities politicians don’t like to talk about is that turning Canada into a green energy superpower — as Prime Minister Mark Carney has promised — means eliminating the rights of communities directly affected by energy-related projects to have a say in them.
Often with disastrous results.
An increasing number of Albertans are now aware of the risks associated with dependency on wind and solar generators. These naturally produce less power during periods of peak seasonal demand. (For example, Arctic winter storms.) Less well-known is another risk that is emerging as these intermittent generators become further integrated into our grids — loss of frequency control, caused by intermittent power generators — wind and solar — leading to blackouts.
