Ecojustice is representing seven young people in a constitutional court case against the Ontario government, ostensibly to try and force the government to reinstitute cancelled cap-and-trade legislation. CBC has given this a 'lite' reporting effort - seeming to have no questions about how these young people came together or whether there might be any conflicts of interest or foreign-funding or foreign interests as part of the case. Michelle Stirling, Communications Manager for Friends of Science Society, walks through some important and relevant background details that are not very hard to find on the internet, and wonders why CBC with its greater than $1 billion tax-subsidized annual budget couldn't do more 'reporting' and less 'repeating.' If you want to find you why you are paying a carbon tax and getting 'climate income' rebates, watch this video. The video and power point will be posted to our blog a bit later, so that you can review the links in the power point. Thanks for watching!

Canada's CBC-TV loves to tell people that climate change is seen 'in your backyard.' This is absurd, since climate change is measured over 30, 50, 100 and millennial time scales But what happens when a family of tiny Panda's goes for a walk and they DO find 'climate change' in their back yard?? Enjoy this light-hearted and optimistic look at climate change with your children or grandchildren. Life is beautiful. Children should be busy having fun, not being turned into angry school-skipping activists, trying to 'save the planet' from the magnificent modern world built by their parents' years of hard work. education, and earned wisdom. The Sun drives climate change, directly and indirectly, interacting in a dynamic, chaotic manner with the internal variabilities of Earth's natural systems, and greater forces in the universe (like cosmic rays, orbital patterns of planets, and more!).

Ecojustice, a federally registered charity, has recently launched a legal challenge against the Alberta Inquiry into foreign-funded activity against the energy and resource sector, often referred to as the “Tar Sands Campaign.” According to a 2012 document from the CRA to Friends of Science Society, charities are not allowed to engage in political activity to change laws, but Ecojustice has been doing that since its inception. Michelle Stirling, Communications Manager for Friends of Science Society discusses correspondence with the CRA which indicates that ‘climate change’ is not a local, measurable or tangible cause, according to the CRA directive; nor do Ecojustice donors – some 19,000 individuals plus some family foundations funding Ecojustice are supposed to provide a ‘net benefit’ to Canada through this ‘charity’. But what is the ‘net benefit’ when they put over100,000 people out of work and crater the Albertan and Canadian economies with global reputational damage and billions of dollars in investment fleeing the country and province? So, the question must be asked about Ecojustice – “How is this charitable activity?” The Tar Sands Campaign is well documented as a coordinated, foreign-funded effort to demarket the Alberta Oil Sands. Some references include: Corporate Ethics bragging about coordinating 100 groups against the oil sands: “Michael 'Marx' advised the International Tar Sands Oil Campaign, which included over 100 groups working in the U.S., Europe and Canada.” https://corpethics.org/about/ An overview with links to campaign documents: https://www.counterpunch.org/2013/10/16/how-tides-canada-controls-the-secret-north-american-tar-sands-coalition/ A document showing how Keystone XL was intentionally blocked by a coordinated campaign of ENGOs and certain First Nations groups: http://internationalfunders.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/IFIPConferenceReport2010.pdf. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLXVZP8k2KU
