Hey right-wing racist quacks at Fearless, make sure Markham Hislop doesn't read this.

Bah humbug.

I wouldn't characterize carbon footprint considerations as "simplistic'. It suggests they're to be embraced as a concept. It's no more faulty and frivolous than a carbon tax. Much is rightly made about the carbon tax being a pointless regressive tax that's costing Canadians and the economy dearly (bUT mUH rEBAtes), but can you imagine how bad the deal is for Quebecers? It's Quebec after all.

And to a more salient point about this point. As usual, Bastiat's timeless dictum of the "unseen" applies. The great French economist often warned and mocked how government interventionism assured "unintended consequences". The same can be applied to the unethical, unnecessary and unscientific Covid mandates and measures.
