Mike's Daily Comment

When Symbolism Consistently Trumps Reality….

 …..Money gets squandered. No Government expenditures should ever be above scrutiny but when it comes to Climate Change that is exactly what has been happening. Federal Bureaucrats even admit that the 4 billion spent between 1998 and 2003 to meet the Kyoto Accord committment was wasted. Stories of billions being lost are everywhere you look when it comes to climate change. Look no further than Ontario’s green energy program for one of the worst examples of waste.

Possibly the only factor that will hold back a rise in Canadian rates would be another significant fall in oil prices.
