If Mr. Ignatieff is sincere about keeping global warming within two degrees, scientists estimate that it will require a reduction of between 25 and 40 percent relative to 1990 levels. I rather doubt that he intends to campaign on that level of reductions.

Norman Spector,

Thanks for the reply.

Now I feel bad about musing if you get paid by Harper and the Cons.

However, I would like to know if the money you receive from the Globe and Mail for writing your column is declared by the Con Party as a political contribution. If not, then, perhaps, a contribution 'in kind' by you.

I have every confidence that Michael Ignatieff will do the right (morally right, that is) thing regarding Canada, all Canadians, our economy, our position in the world and towards making a better future for us, or children and contributing positively to a better Canada and a better world. Certainly if I have anything to do with it he will.

I can't say the same for Harper.

Nor have I ever heard anyone that would make such a statement, whether they are simply incredibly biased, politically motivated, or it is simply the ravelings of a lunatic.

Harper and the Con's have spent the last four and more years deliberately poisoning the waters. I am sure that Ignatieff and the Liberals will take the appropriate steps to purge the waters and rid us of this plague.

Harper and the Con's have developed the biggest propaganda machine seen in Western democracies in recent history that they have no hesitation in using no matter how reprehensible and morally and secularly dishonest, approaching Canadians on an emotional level, with a total disregard for the truth.

Harper and the Con's are only concerned with grabbing onto power and maintaining it, at any cost, and Canada be damned.

The Harper, and the Con’s generally, style politics is of distortion, cover-up, deception, suppression of truth, slandering, mud slinging, vicious personal attacks and character assassination in lieu of serious and sober response to important issues. Their attitude to Science and Scientific research are in the dank ages and Crime reminiscent of the irrationality surrounding witch-hunts and the Inquisition.
