Seems appropriate considering he campaigned on killing it and then did an about-face and pushed it over the line.

Because cancelled surgeries not only equate to better healthcare in nurses' minds, but are certain to get the public on their side.

Hope these nurses wait years for knee surgery at some point in their life.

"Inside Haida Gwaii’s historic plan to ditch diesel

Because of its reliance on diesel, Haida Gwaii produces about three per cent of emissions caused by electricity generation in B.C., despite having only a few thousand residents.

Haida Gwaii is one of 44 remote communities in B.C. that are not connected to the provincial electrical grid. For power, most rely on diesel, which has heavy environmental and human health costs.

Solar North, a two-megawatt solar project by Haida-owned Tll Yahda, came online in December — the first project of its kind to be built on a remote grid in B.C., and a big step forward in the First Nation’s plans to transition off diesel.

Whether operating independently or with BC Hydro, remote projects require funding to get off the ground. However, a key federal grant program by Natural Resources Canada to fund diesel reduction will end next year."

Gee, look at that, less than a week after the excise tax on gas is dropped (lowering prices by ~10 cents) the price increases 15 cents a litre in my region

Instead of money going to public services in Canada, it’s going south out of Canada’s economy never to return.

The drop in excise tax just gave the oil companies more room to game how much each region is willing to pay
