We’re buying Canadian and building Canadian.
The restoration of Centre Block on Parliament Hill is being done by Canadian workers, with Canadian materials, from Canadian companies across the country.

@GerryRitzxMP And I am chuckling here, weren’t you in Cabinet, you would have approved the money at Cabinet and good on you if you did.

Mark demonstrates leadership and vision by his compelling parallel between the ambitious renovation of Parliament and the greater task of rebuilding our nation, noting both require patience, investment, and a clear long-term commitment to our shared future youtube.com/watch?v=9C7Wm9…

@GerryRitzxMP A few decades from now the restoration of the Parliamentary Precinct will be known as a Prime Minister Stephen Harper legacy.

@GerryRitzxMP Always will thank Jim Flaherty for getting me the money. Came down to my back room one day, “I got your money Kevin”. We had a good drink together. Great friend. Recession was on and this was one way to stimulate. $1.8 Billion for 1 st go.

Canada and Mexico have stopped growing. Canada's real per capita GDP is flat since 2018, i.e. we're closing in on a decade of stagnation. Things look even worse for Mexico, which is in a near-permanent stagnation. There's a growth crisis in North America.

A referendum that will divide your party and make the province look unstable for investment, all to ultimately affirm the constitutional status quo, is an odd choice…

What is going on in Canada? Everyday you have another major announcement - like everyday - Bombardier and planes. Gold mines opening and expanding in Ontario and up North, huge new graphite plant in Quebec and on and on. What is going on in Canada. Oh yeah, @MarkJCarney

Keyera, AltaGas and CN to go ahead with a new $240-million rail terminal project to provide transportation capacity for the shipment of about 45,000 barrels per day of propane and butane from the Fort Saskatchewan region to West Coast export facilities.

@GerryRitzxMP Saudi Aramco actively market their crude as having a much lower carbon footprint—claiming its upstream emissions are fifty to seventy percent below the global average—and pitch it to petrochemical buyers as a way to start their entire product chain with a smaller footprint.
English
@KevMVickers And who exactly pays more for the lightest carbon footprint?

Falsehoods of environmentalists and outright misinformation of IEA diminishes their credibility in promoting strategies to combat climate change. “The growth in global oil demand is slowing down. The International Energy Agency forecasts”. Utter Nonsense. theglobeandmail.com/gift/de910dc30…

@PaulGodin562744 @INoScared @MarkJCarney Genscape and Chai Energy, but the biggest recent move is Equinor and BP starting to report and market their own oil by its carbon intensity, basically offering a “lower carbon barrel” option to buyers. So the industry’s moving that way.
English
@INoScared @KevMVickers @MarkJCarney The pundit in Ottawa can't show benefit.
It will only benefit a hedge vulture fund he's known to continue interacting with outside Canada's laws of conflict of interest
Mr. Carney is not capable of caring. He doesn't have this capacity. Money first, money only. Never different

Climate change is real. Climate Change is an increasing threat to our children and grandchildren. Most countries contribute less than 2%. Nothing gets done if we all take the position it doesn’t matter if I take action. Leadership is never easy. @MarkJCarney finds balance.

The oil sector statements coming in now. 1. Oilsands Alliance "The announced industrial carbon tax, while lower than the current industrial carbon tax, still maintains uncompetitive costs on the Canadian oil sands industry. No other major oil producing nation faces a similar tax. The MOU states an objective to reduce the carbon emissions intensity of Canadian heavy oil production to best in class in terms of the average for heavy oil by 2050. As set out in Canada’s 2025 budget, the Canadian oil industry has a carbon emissions intensity that is already below the global average. “Oil Sands Alliance is committed to advancing the Pathways carbon capture and storage project provided the necessary regulatory and fiscal terms are in place, to support the project and new oil sands growth in Canada,” said Oil Sands Alliance President Kendall Dilling. “An industrial carbon tax only adds uncompetitive costs to industry on top of the costs of a carbon capture project.” oilsandsalliance.ca/news/oil-sands…

@GerryRitzxMP False. CarbonChain gives asset-level carbon data so buyers can pick lower-emission crudes. Sylvera tracks upstream carbon intensity for hundreds of crude streams worldwide. And Platts from S&P Global now measures and prices the carbon intensity of specific crude grades.

@KevMVickers True. So please list all those importers who demand only decarbonized oil. Even Eastern Canada imports are not decarbonized!

@KevMVickers @MarkJCarney CO2 makes up .04% of the atmosphere Kev. Industrial activities are about 1% of that. Tell us how that impacts climate change..
