So, global warming denier Donald Trump is blaming Canada for somehow not "managing" its 3.69 million square kilometres of forest and thereby allowing giant wildfires to spread which causes smoke to fill the skies of various states along the Canada-USA border. As if we're supposed to have armies of people wandering around the Canadian Shield putting dried twigs into garbage bags. It's a moronic accusation that doesn't warrant a response.
But notice how Carney's options for rebuttal are limited because he can't point to the obvious role of global warming due to the burning of fossil fuels as the real culprit behind these fires. (These fires have, obviously, become the "new normal" for most humans who now have to deal with them. I'll bet at least 75% of the people in Toronto, where I live, have forgotten all about them. It's sickening what we're prepared to put up with in order to avoid the struggle of having to adjust to reality.)
Carney can't blame global warming because he's a craven servant of the oil sector and he's committed to extracting and having burn even more petroleum than ever.
Every day the man comes up with more reason to be contemptuous of him.
