Rex Murphy: Cherish your suffering, Ontario; Premier Wynne’s green gods know of your sacrifice
In his familiar Lincolnesque manner McGuinty promoted the Green Plan as “placing Ontario in the forefront as a leader in the fight against global warming.” Ms. Wynne, as faithful to the doctrine of the founder, works out of the same catechism. Ontario is merely, and this is no small merely, leading the way
The dream was, I suppose, that the Kazakhstanis, and Burundians, the Chinese and Peruvians, all in their several dominions, taking the morning beverage to begin the day, would pause and remark to the neighbors, “Those Ontarians. They’re leading the fight against global warming. What a people.” Then, instantly, a worldwide flight to turn off the space heaters, shut down the factories, jail the coal miners, and turn out the lights. In 24 hours the only place left on the planet that still had the lights on would be a mansion in Tennessee.
So was all the pain worth it? Mr. Trudeau thinks so. For he has the same plan. And some of the same planners. So far, though, that’s the whole parade.
