Terry Milewski, carbon indulgence peddlar
September 10, 2008 Canadian Politics 3 CommentsBy Glendronach
CBC reporter Terry Milewski, in his implausibly named “Reality Check” segment on The National, has railed at the Conservative campaign for not following the lead of the Liberals and NDP in purchasing carbon offsets. Yet even his crack team of Googling wage-slaves have yet to come across the same facts presented elegantly by Steve Janke, namely that carbon offsets are a dubious proposition as practised by the Liberals. An actual check with reality shows that in this campaign they are nothing better than the Gaian equivalent of medieval papal indulgences: a boon to hucksters but worthless as a genuine means of salvation.
So here we stand, Mr. Milewski; we can do no other.
