Sure, and that's a fair point. It is certainly a factor that could be reasonably accommodated when discussing emissions or setting global emissions targets. However, I severely doubt that it would ever reasonably justify the fact that Canada's emissions are double the emissions of most of those European countries (and many times more than most developing states.)
