I'm not sure if this is the right move... It'll inevitably hurt the consumer due to rising costs from the biofuel.
The government should target the polluting larger fish and you know, actually adhere to their climate goals... cough cough
And in several years, electric or hybrid vehicles will be the majority.
I know we'll need a new car sometime in the near year, and I've already set at minimum to get a hybrid.
Gotta play to your strengths. Alberta doesn't have much else going for it other than farming.
Really hard to diversify being so far north and disconnected. There is only one US interstate connecting Alberta to the US, and it really doesn't go anywhere of value.
Has any country?
Not that it excuses Canada's lackluster approach, but we're far from the only slacker on this.
We should be doing a lot better, but taking strong enough measures needed to signifigantly and quickly move the needle would guarantee any politician who did it would never get re-elected.
You have a good point. Apparently only 2 countries are hitting their targets...
