OK Diyawn. More taxes on gasoline, a carbon tax and a cap&trade scheme will lower prices. And this absolute buffoon actually leads a national political party, un-friggin believable.

Jeez, I think his English is actually getting WORSE!

Richard; This dweeb is scaring me.

The mere thought of someone this inept and isolated being near the switches of power at a very volatile time is, frankly, unnerving.

We are entering a long economic downturn cycle...stagflation...poor job/wage prospects compounded with unprecedented inflation in basic living commodities like fuel, food, transport, utilities and a relentless tax burden

This interview should shame Canadians into cutting the ties with the LPC for good. In the entire duration Dijon did not make one statement grounded in reality. He is "visiting" Canada's only industrial wealth engine at a time it is bleeding 3600 industrial manufacturing jobs a month that will not return....and his answer is to burden them more with another tax.

Can we get this guy booked for the next Mars mission...he's certainly not functioning on this planet, perhaps he can see if his rationale is more applicable to other worlds.

When he was done all that nonesense about a carbon tax/cap in hand system the interviewers says "exactly..."

Way to go with the tough questions.

This reminds me of 1984 where every time they decrease the number of razor blades you can have they say they are increasing it. Anyone who points out the truth is sent before a human rights commission.


You don't bash other places well it's a good thing the liberals have never done that with Alberta,... Or called an Election while Manitoba was under flood waters, because they would have done that when the ice storms were in Quebec too right?

Richard you are a dick making me listen to that blather,



Only in a complex liberal mind will higher taxes result in savings.

OPEN MORE NUKE PLANTS NOW!

What is it about these guys? I saw a clip of Al Gore explaining how more renewable energy will improve the economy... "because it's progress". OMG. Yes oh Goreacle, oh Dionknob, using energy so much more expensive than oil the government has to force people to use it, and taxing a basic neccessity that will hit the poor disproportionately will both improve the economy and achieve "social justice".

I'm against nuke plants. The earth hasn't warmed in 10 years and I miss it. Edmonton is freezing this april. Global Warming: it was nice while it lasted : (

In line with the sheer idiocy exhibited in the above clip, did anybody see Premier McSquinty explain that gas was likely going to $2.50 @L soon because "" unlike Europe our gas prices have been ARTIFICIALLY LOW and that can't continue ...""

Of course the Lib media hacks didn't point out to the esteeemed leader of the next have-not province that Europe doesn't have any damn oil and Canada has more reserves than Saudi Arabia!!!

Why don't we EVER see anybody call our Pols on the BS they shovel at us??

lol. Look! A liberal is saying gas prices are artificially LOW. But I think what he means is that we have been artificially neglecting to tax the badonkadonk out of it. "On August 8, for example... in Britain, it would be $1.97, instead of $6.06." Average price of fuel in Europe is 60 percent tax.

And I think I've figured it out. Why do Dion and Gore beleive that their environmental plans will improve the economy regardless of, say, reality?

In the beginning was the Good Intention. And the Good Intention was with Progressives and the Good Intention was Progressive. It was with the Progressive in the beginning.

And the Progressive spoke the Word of Good Intention apon the waters of unreconstructed reality through legislation and commission. His and Her Good Intention was bestowethed and his or her Good Intention is bestowethed. And He or She did and does not bother to see if it was good because the Good Intention spaken becometh reality and is in its nature Good.

They actually beleive that reality is subject to their feelings. They actually believe that they are Gods making and remaking the nature of things through their legislated good intentions. It will improve the economy "because its progress". Because its them applied to the world, and they are good. And they are even more chauvanistic than God because after he created Adam he checked to see if it was good!

Meanwhile in reality, their ethanol is starving people and their Human Rights Commissions are probably doing to those they "protect" what the American Disablilities act did to disabled people. Making them into lawsuit bombs that employers who cannot afford a lawsuit must tell "the position is filled".
