The fact that we aren't helping China proves that Trudeau doesn't really care about global emissions.

How do we help China without it costing us more?
If we send money there, it would have to come from some sort of tax here. You don't like that.
If we sell them emissions cutting tech, then we generate more money here which will lead to inflation which leads to a lower standard of living. That's also not an option for you.
What is your suggestion?
