OTTAWA -- Environment Minister Jonathan Wilkinson said the pandemic hasn’t hijacked the government’s "big green agenda," and warned that if left unaddressed climate change will have more of an impact on Canadians than COVID-19.
"This is our chance to build a more resilient Canada, a Canada that is healthier and safer, greener and more competitive, a Canada that is more welcoming and more fair. This is our moment to change the future for the better," Trudeau said at the time. Speaking to Solomon on Wednesday during an episode of CTV Power Play, May said she's made it clear to the prime minister that if he plans to leave real climate action out of the throne speech, he won’t be getting her party’s support.
Canadian Confederation hijacked by leftist greenies federal government which also is near bankruptcy. Canada is already 'green' for many decades (only 1.6% of world CO2).
You wear McKenna's insanity well Mr. JonathanWNV
Butts green energy nightmare
The Trudeau “Liberals” green agenda The majority of Canadians did not vote for them and they only remain in power because theJagmeetSingh and the NDP support corruption, exploitation and manipulation
The Green Scam? You guys bringing Greta Thunberg back to shame the world or has her scam been outed too?
Our gov has no idea how to run an economy the green way. So why are they still pushing for it? Ummm... their friends and family can benefit billions from it. And that’s all hard earned tax $.
I thought this was an Elton John article
JonathanWNV What is the point of CTV News if they don't question the government? The Minister of Environment will destroy Canada.
I am so tired of the fake climate fearmongering, and BS from these burocrats and the CTV propaganda network, who simply want more money and power. Go outside and enjoy the beautiful weather everywhere, except in the 0.01% of the world the news shows you. The world is not ending
These clowns just keep doubling and tripling down with their virtue signalling.
So, according to the article, Elizabeth May will call Trudeau a climate arsonist, this knob says they will 'look at' living up to their virtue signalling 2 billion trees and NOBODY ever gets called out on what exactly, specifically, is our climate crisis. Just platitudes.
Thats his job of course he would say that
More fakenews on the fake ClimateEmergency
climate changes on earth from the beginning of times. Nothing what leftist morons can do about it
How much$$$ is needed to stop Climate Change? By how much has the Carbon Tax reduced Climate Change to Date? What can we learn from BC? Is the World going to shut China/India down? Is Canada and others going to stop shipping coal to China? Is the East going to stop importing Oil?
If environment minister is referencing the insane amount of money his party wants to spend on a “green recovery”, then I totally agree. cdnpoli
They just keep crawling out from under a log...
Canadian_logic_ So why does he keep pushing fossil fuels? The Liberal's lies and hypocrisy on climate are infuriating.
Not
climatehoax
Climate change Biggest scam ever. No one gives a dame about except the rich. Right now we gave more important issues at hand.
Still pushing the fear and panic agenda , FFS ...
Green agenda = Excuse to take money from the treasury. Questions?
I think what you meant the Trudeau “Liberals” green agenda The majority of Canadians did not vote for them.
Canada's green agenda is going to plunge this country even further into recession and is going to make the cost of living go up for all Canadians. Look around the world where there's green agendas. Cali for example. Not enough power so you go without, why is there not enough?
Will you stop promoting these idiots. Oh, right paid to only say what they dictate.
Its not about climate, its about staying in power.
Only 19% of Canadians care about climate change.
What? Thousands will die because of climate change?
More Liberal BS.
If you believe this crap you are being used as a useful idiot to re distribute your wealth have you noticed after spending billions on Climate nothing has changed. It is definition of insanity to continue the same
Another new documentary The dark side of green energy Canadian taxpayers should not be funding this
Green is the new Red One manufactured crisis to the next,to keep them confused and in line. So long as they remain confused and in fear,you can maintain power.
Erin O'Toole pledges to leave climate change unchecked. Conservatives only have American GOP solutions, proven time and time again.
Real news. Hundreds of all time low temperature records fall over the last 24hrs. MSM silent.
This is as legit as Justin’s sexuality. Give it a rest already.
Treason.
You know what most of us are really concerned with? Jobs and Food!
Anyone still believing this climate scam is an absolute mental midget.
He's right - we need to reduce the number of MPs in order to limit activities that increase greenhouse gas emissions, i.e., air travel, etc.. We definitely don't need 338 MPs.
Actually none of the political agendas will be affected significantly by Covid-19. The alarmists have had to take a temporary back seat while the new hyped alarmism got under way but they'll be back, only now trying to tie the two together. Too many palms are being greased...
More Liberal party scare tactics
Agenda2030 SDGs We don't have long to wake up
The creeping, invisible nature of man’s damage to our natural systems will not be a priority of the masses if they are fighting for life’s basics. Like other things we value, art/beauty, heath/fitness, they are hard to prioritize when just trying to survive.
If there was ever a government in Canadian history that needed to be overthrown by its citizens, it's this liberal socialist party. They need to go right fucking now before Canada is completely destroyed.
I think certain people get a cut of money to keep pushing climate change. Because there is nothing people can do to change it.
Weird. A miniscule change in average yearly temperature of the entire earth over several decades (slightly warmer/benifiting Canada) is hugely bad? Nonsense.
The greatest risk to Canada as we know it is the federal liberal party.
Shouldn’t we focus on sirvivial of the virus instead of investing Canadians national debt and possible democracy for “green” radical expensive and often “epic failures” right now?
Liberalism is the greatest danger.
ClimateHoax ClimateEmergency
That is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard
Let’s just suppose for an instant that you were correct. Just what exactly will you do to fix it. Solar energy as an example cannot produce another solar panel. The petrochemical industry is virtually indispensable. You will only levy more federal taxes.
LOL. CTV News. Every time I think you just cannot get any funnier you come up with jokes like this
Bullshit
MASSIVE IMMIGRATION is destroying Canada's environment & over crowding Canadians lives . who is paying for the damages ?
Groan. The environment minister is a joke. He will produce skewed graphs and charts that mean nothing.
That is funny cause i thought covid-19 the worst thing that ever happened to the human race? I mean I've never seen the government care so much about anything before.
This guy's out to lunch. The SUN is getting hotter your currupt tax does nothing
BS!
When are we going to stop listening to these morons. We've been following them like sheep for years now. 3 things have happened: 1-we are in more debt then ever 2-these people are richer than ever 3-not a single problem has been solved
Same old Eco Doom & Gloom Fear Mongering nonsense. The sky keeps on falling. And the climate keeps changing at its boringly normal rate And the poles refuse to melt And the planet’s forests refuse to burn away And CTV continues to do Fake News
Our finances are being left unchecked by morons
I went to look at the historical data for myself and could not find it......
Hold onto your wallets
This is truly insane
Total fear mongering. How long are we going to let media liars push their agendas? When is enough, enough?
Lol. Back to this again? Sheep
Nope. Both are non issues.
No it won’t.
Lol so many people not understanding climate and weather arent the same thing.
50% carbon tax increase Apr 1 to the tax payer and a 2% + increase in MP salaries.
We are in the interglacial cycle. Enjoy the “global warming” before the next ice age comes. Leave the Mother Nature alone.
Climate change is a global problem that requires a global solution. Trudeau’s carbon tax yields no environmental benefit, but makes Canadians poorer and is destroying Canada’s ability to compete globally in every single segment of our economy. We need a smarter approach...
Amazing how much of a liar you have to be to push this ridiculous narrative.
Fear-mongering
Don't fall for the fear people! We are almost their. The Great Awakening is upon!
This climate change?
Fear fear fear.. they are lucky that there are a lot of sheep that believe this bull. I for one am so fed up of the garbage they feed the population to keep them in check.
BS.... first, show me that natural climate change isn't happening, THEN show me the AGW is 100% a result of influence by humans! But don't forget to include 100's of years of RAW data that hasn't been homogenized by agencies that depend on tax dollars to function...
😂 ok dude 👌🏽 if you say so
FakeNewsAlert
When you almost double our federal debt you have to scare people so they agree to increased taxes to compensate for the governments reckless spending. We must make everything more expensive because the fate of the entire world hinges on Canada & it’s 1.6% of emissions.
More BS
Climate change is a hoax! Wake the F up people!
Climate change is a globalist scam.
Where’s the science to support such an outlandish claim? Earth is cooling. Please learn to pay attention
Oh stop
It would be good and take care of both Keep the border closed and work on climate change
We have the second largest land mass, low population, don’t manufacture much...how is climate change impacting us more than covid, specifically not generalities.
And here I was told a carbon tax would fix everything...
Is anyone seriously believing this shit?
How much tax money this time CTV. For your BS
Covid has literally done the green cults job for them.....nobody drives, industry is shut down....yet they still push the BS
fakenews
😂😂 globalism full ahead!
Setting us up for the throne speech.
JonathanWNV Then there's this - no backbone here
Because Covid is a con job.
JonathanWNV flip flopping around on the environment does not make a good or believable cabinet minister
Oh yes! Let us throw more middle class money at it. That should work.🙄 The only awesome thing about this article is the majority of the comments.
Where CTV sits was once an ocean, climate changes, open a book folks. Taxes won’t stop it.
Wow minxing in the fear propaganda. We all should know what is really going on with these Covid tests. Newsflash we are being lied to again about both topics.
The gig is up. We all know it’s about new tax revenue.
Show the data - !! Wait you can’t because it does support your commie agenda.
Tell us something new. This is a 30 year old bag of trix. Man made crisis 70's - world will freeze over. 80's - acid rain 90' - global warming 00' - climate change. See a pattern? We are still here folks. NOW: focus on GMO manuf and poisoning of our food and water systems.
Only on serfs
The media thinks public is dumb and will believe every paid news article published Time to wake up to what’s going on !!
An agenda with no action is not helpful. When will the Minister of Environment actually do something about ClimateAction ? Atmospheric carbon now 20% above safe limit. gpc cdnpoli
The only way to control climate change is to throw a politician into a volcano once a day till theres no more ...Done
Yes more Cdn taxes will fix everything , not !! If only China and India would quit burning all that coal. Wishful thinking !!!
It’s too late. We know need to learn how to ride out the storms-so to speak.
fakenews
Climate change hoax! The climate cycle is a natural thing every planet does.
Alternative headline: “Trudeau Government reminds Canadians they’re the only thing preventing Canada turning into a literal climate Hell, so continue voting for them if you love your children.”
FakeNews
This climate crap is just a huge money maker and the way to gain power for a small handful of ppl.
For a rookie, Wilkinson sure has all the globalist and UN wonky phrases down pat.
Sounds like a bunch of bull.
Canadians will die listening to corrupt politicians MSM usefulidiots leading us into a Medical Technocracy for Gates who will profit climatechangehoax Agenda21 prosecuteMSM prosecute spineless politicians
Christ not the climate change brigade 🤣🤣 have we all not suffered enough
Liberals idea of 'big green agenda': Screwing citizens out of their hard earned dollars so they can become even more wealthy.
Justin says; we need to raise our taxes, we can only assume, to get the sun to stop with its impermanent activities. I say, if that doesn't work, then we need to start sacrificing the politicians who supported the CO2Hoax model. childrenoftheSun
Live in fear of the imaginary apocalypse so we can continue to tax and rule you into oblivion!
You guys are five seconds away from being purely tabloid. I used to love CTV. Government propaganda 50% of the time now.
Climate change may have a positive impact on Canada for some time, but a negative impact on the human and the Earth eventually. The center of human civilization is shifting from the Atlantic politically, to the Pacific economically, then to the Arctic climatically.
Blah blah blah blah. Do you ever get tired of spewing this nonsense.
Arson is not climate change. Forest mismanagement is not climate change. Taxing canadians into poverty does not solve climate change. Fact is that the changing climate is the natural cycle of the planet...that is science. The planets climate has been changing since its creation.
Lol
Do people not see that our growing season is shrinking and it is getting colder? Geeze
CTV, your news is more disappointingly empty by the day. Just stick a kid on a street corner with a bag of papers already 'Extry extry! CTV's talking smack again!' Asking people in danger NOW to care about something 1000 years from now? Is this 1940....seriously is it?!
Probably not a doctor.
Voters chose forward with TrudeauWorstPM as a FauxPasClimateChangePM GretaThunberg
Oh FFS. Just shut up already. People are getting sick of this garbage.
Back to the “climate change” emergency... Then back to the rotation Trump is evil Coronavirus is so deadly Wear mask or you’re selfish Don’t hug your mother We are racists Look a white woman was rude Arson is climate change
Crisis Hustlers ...
Minister GERBIL is about that same as climate barbie only he thinks he knows stuff.. Sadly he is just spewing the same crap!!.. We going to die pretty soon so pay more and we will fix it and pay even more and we will definitely maybe fix it sooner!!! GERBIL IS A DONKEY!!!
The last time I checked (yesterday) the KM pipelines ramped UP as soon as COVID hit and haven't slowed down.
While he ignores China's pollution
Just trading one fake crisis for another. The last two days have shown just how dangerous fake news can be over the death the Justice Ginsburg. Far too many Canadians are having a mental breakdown because of irrational fears over a SCOTUS nominee. I blame fake news for that.
Has he watched Planet of the Humans
Back to the fear mongering are we? We are 1.6 of world emissions. No to his new clean fuel tax.
virus must be dying out back to warming scam
If he can see so clearly into the future and indeed, enjoys playing prophet, he should elect the winning lottery numbers to prove his ability. Anything less is alarmist.
Must be nice to be able to run to your bought media with bullshit like this while the Govt of Canada & Parliamentary democracy is shut down so the leader can hide from multiple investigations into his criminal actions. Why does the media work for these clowns instead of questions
Yet another unqualified faux cabinet minister spewing dire warnings to legal hardworking Canadians in the midst of a pandemic - he is yet another boot kicking ass kissing follower of Justaboy & reads words written by Buttshead
