Trudeau unveils new net-zero emissions plan to meet climate change targets
Critics decry legislation that doesn't include penalties for failing to meet targets

Environment and Climate Change Minister Jonathan Wilkinson tabled new legislation today that would force current and future federal governments to set binding climate targets to get Canada to net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
The bill, if passed, would require the federal government to set five-year interim emissions reduction targets over the next 30 years to ensure progress toward that ambitious goal.
The legislation, C-12, fulfils a Liberal election promise to be more aggressive at cutting greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, and to get Canada to net-zero emissions by 2050.

#7 in world in oil production, and the one western nation probably most depedent (sans Norway) on its oil to keep its economy afloat.
He thnks he can operate a E & P and petrochemical facilities with zero emissions? There is no such thing as zero emissions at these places. I used to count this shit for a living.
You cannot fix liberal stupidity.
