I've not yet formed a scientific opinion on global warming, it's not because I'm some tinfoil-hat-wearing climate change denier, it's because the matter appears to be quite complex. At a basic level do I believe that the constant generation emissions from the consumption of petroleum products certainly can't be good for the planet. Having said that, until we, as consumers, are willing to make drastic changes to the way we live our lives there will not be any meaningful reduction in GHG's, we are exceptionally wasteful people.

What I have formed an opinion on is that exports represent economic injections and are therefore extremely important to improving the quality of life for Canadians.

The motivating factors for her appointment fit the JT agenda of gender and ethnicity, specifically his claim of being a "feminist" and his desire for "truth and reconciliation". I would suggest that appointments are normally made on the basis of what is most beneficial to the Party, not what is most pleasing to the narrative/public eye.

Taxation through increased economic activity as opposed to taxation through increased tax rates.
