Take a moment and read this. No one will ever convince me that Muslims are the religion of peace. Never. And @MarkJCarney seems to think that Muslim values are Canadian values….🐂💩
🇨🇦 Canada’s federal fuel charge went from roughly $2.7B a year to $13.5B.
Over its lifetime, tens of billions flowed through the system.
And after all that money, Canadians are still being warned about worsening fires, smoke, extreme weather and rising climate costs.
So here’s the question Ottawa should have to answer: @MarkJCarney
What measurable climate outcome did Canadians actually buy?
Because “we collected the tax” is not the same thing as “we solved the problem.”
From Central Okanagan Search and Rescue:
Early Saturday, COSAR was called upon to assist Penticton Search and Rescue in evacuating the City of Summerland.
While en route, COSAR was informed that Highway 97 had been closed due to the fire, preventing the team from assisting. Within minutes, COSAR was instead tasked with supporting the RCMP in evacuating a large area of Peachland around Princeton Avenue. Together, COSAR and the RCMP successfully evacuated several hundred homes during the early morning hours.
A significant concern arose when a COSAR member stopped several people from driving into the fire. With Highway 97 closed, Google Maps was routing drivers onto the Summerland/Peachland Forest Service Road—directly into the fire area—in an attempt to reach Penticton.
COSAR strongly recommends following official road-closure information on DriveBC.
