I really don't get this attitude of everyone jumping to failure as the first result.

You are right there will be lots of jobs available as we transition into the new energy economy and we should work on transitioning workers, but why anyone would trust the federal government to successfully do anything other than waste billions and still have nothing to show for is beyond me.
Work like that is successfully down as close to the source as possible.
If you want to transition workers, fund it on the local level and remove the feds from having any say so.
In fact don't fund it. The provinces should fight it out. War of attrition. People have always moved to where the work is.
