Canada's contribution to global warming provokes emotion, which always seems to trump logic; and brings to mind my favorite quote by Bill Watterson, "the surest sign there is intelligent life elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us". Humanity is emotional and irrational... and those "damn oil sands" are just to provocative compared to what little the public knows of the practices common in China and the Middle East.
