FELDSTED: When climate change organizers advocate treason by removing our right to be governed by elected representatives in a constitutional monarchy, they go too far

Canada Should Be Legally Bound to Its Climate Promises -- passing the 2009 Climate Change Accountability Act could close the gap between our country's ambitions and its actions.

During the recent House of Commons emergency climate debate, spurred by an alarming new UN climate change report, there were many politicians talking about the need for Canada to rise to the challenge of climate change. Many of these same politicians acknowledged that, right now, Canada's policies aren't enough to line up with what scientists are saying we need to do.

… it reminded me of the last time I was in the House of Commons watching Question Period. I was there supporting legislation that, if brought back, could close the gap between Canada's climate promises and our climate policy.

… I was in the House of Commons gallery with around 100 other young people from all across Canada … hundreds of youth from across the country had come to the nation's capital to rally for climate action — would spark some action from our elected leaders.

It didn't. Question Period droned on as if we weren't there, as if the Copenhagen climate summit wasn't a few weeks away and as if the existential threat of a scorched earth wasn't waiting in the wings.

Eventually, a few among us got fed up and started chanting … calling for the passage of Bill C-311, known as the Climate Change Accountability Act.

Mr. Fenton is entitled to his opinion, but he is must not to attack the constitutional sovereignty of Canada. Our elected representatives in Parliament cannot be bound by an agreement sponsored by the United Nations or any of its agencies. The Paris Agreement is a stack of useless verbiage.  

If he had bothered to read the text of the Paris agreement, he would discover that the agreement does not apply to all world nations and that there is no penalty for a nation that fails to meet agreement carbon emission targets. 

He should know that the world’s largest carbon emitter, China, has stated that it will continue to increase emissions until 2022 and may then act to reduce emissions. He should know that the USA, who did not sign on to the Paris Agreement has substantially reduced emissions by changing from coal to gas fired electrical generating plants.

The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (UNIPCC) speculates that a reduction in airborne carbon dioxide may reduce the rate of global warming but has no proof that it will happen. The 31 computer models used to generate future global temperatures are all government owned and produce the results that government demand.

So far, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) temperature predictions are wildly above real, observed temperatures. That is because the forecasting models have been tweaked to produce the results that those in charge expect. Temperature changes since 1800 have been very modest – about 0.9⁰ C.

When climate change organizers advocate treason by removing our right to be governed by elected representatives in a constitutional monarchy, they go too far. We must never allow the United Nations of one of their multitudes of agencies and departments to set parameters for our governance.

We are a free people and will not bend to the demands of global warming lunatics.
