1. Not sure what you mean, they've set targets, what would you expect them to do?. I won't get into my entire views on climate change in this thread (to be clear, I do think it's real, yes I think it's man-made), but this is not really a significant area of concern for me personally.

2. I don't really put this at the feet of the federal government. What do you expect them to do? Wouldn't this be more in the bailey wick of provincial governments?

My issues with Harper are the "tough on crime" bull####, C-51, anti-science and general rhetoric. But none of those tip the scales in favour of the NDP which would, in my opinion, be a disaster for the province, country and of course, me personally. I could vote Liberal but I don't see them winning this election, so between the Cons and NDP, it's the lesser of two evils.
