Earlier, I mentioned UN experts, including the Secretary General, who stated that we have to leave oil in the ground if we hope to hit our targets.
In the meantime, Canada has given the green light to the Bay du Nord oil project off the Newfoundland and Labrador coast, which should churn out 500 million to 1 billion barrels over the next 30 years.
Isn't that rather incompatible with the 40 to 45% greenhouse gas reduction targets announced by the government last April in its budget?
