The feds are going to borrow 10 billion dollars in tax payers money to prop up the economy. The oil and gas sector puts 80 billion private dollars annually into the canadian economy.
Instead of ridiculous carbon penalties I would be much happier if the government said a certain percentage of revenue will go into national and provincial parks, more campgrounds, wildlife bridges, lake cleanup, poaching police, tree planting, contaminated soil cleanup accross the country, etc etc.
