3rd world countries are having trouble feeding their population, never mind having the power to take the lead on these issues. People here clamor for more international power and respect, but countries like Canada need to take on more responsibilities if they truly want to lead.
Yes it's not completely fair, but what hell in life is? Yes will take the risks, but we have the chance to come out of it on top in terms of investments, research and reputation. If we take the initiative, we can become the Silicon Valley of the sustainable energy movement. Then we become the top dogs of the industry and cash in.
Man, sometimes I feel like we Canadians are the biggest pussies around. All we do is whine that nobody respects us and nobody pays attention, but refuse to take initiatives when the opportunities arise. No wonder people leave the country to find places that will allow them to fulfill their dreams. It's an amazing country, I just wish we had a pair to take on a challenge.
