Hmmmm. Me thinks that might be because it's about the only issue out there right now and the Liberals are forcing it down everyone's throats. However, maybe they just realized that climate change is a real issue and that they should do something about it? I mean, Tony Blair made a number of reforms in the UK in regards to environmental policies and they turned out to have positive economic benifits. Perhaps Harper has looked at that and realized that GHG emissions control doesn't mean death to our economy.
