For the millionth time, zero is a number. Don't say that you did not attempt to account for the costs of climate change. Be clear in what you did: you set them to zero, @PBO_DPB. And that runs counter to the approach recommended by Treasury Board for analysis of regulations. 1/

Carbon-tax fever is reaching a peak, as April 1 (when both the price and the rebate payments increase) approaches. So I'm re-posting my review of gasoline prices in calendar 2023. Key takeaway: the ups and downs of gasoline prices can't be ascribed to carbon pricing. /2 #cdnecon

@PremierScottMoe says the federal government's proposed clean energy regulations are 'unachievable', but experts say the transition is attainable and must happen. Ottawa proposed those rules rules to reach a net-zero power grid by 2035. #skpoli #Climate cbc.ca/news/canada/sa…
@BrettDolter says regulations don't mean an end of natural gas power generation. Province says the transition would double up the power rates. Dolter says regulations estimates a 0.9 cent increase per kWh for residential power usage, “far from doubling”. youtu.be/qXPbizlNXRQ
Excellent thread on the Clean Electricity Regulations. Fully agree with your last tweet, Brett
The Canadian government released draft Clean Electricity Regulations today: canada.ca/en/services/en…. There is a lot of flexibility built into the regulation. Here are my thoughts on what they mean (and don't mean) for Saskatchewan & SaskPower.
This is a great thread that illustrates the extent to which the federal gov't has designed the draft Clean Electricity Regulations to accommodate the current electricity systems & interests of SK (& AB) while minimizing costs.

Here are the big takeaways from the @IPCC_CH Synthesis Report released today. First, climate change has already caused widespread and substantial losses to almost every aspect of human life on this planet, and the impacts on future generations depend on the choices we make NOW.

1. @BrettDolter's column opens with this simple truth: "When we look at the merits of a government policy it is important to count both the benefits and the costs. Focusing only on costs or only on benefits is misleading." leaderpost.com/opinion/column…
Informative piece by Dr. @BrettDolter @UofRegina "On climate policy, and all issues, the people of this province deserve honest policy debates with a complete accounting of costs and benefits, not just repetitive political theatre."
Opinion: A University of Regina economist casts a skeptical eye at claims of losses from federal climate policies by the Saskatchewan government. #saskatchewan #climate #opinion leaderpost.com/opinion/column…
I'm really upset by the #catalystcmte response to the presentation of social issues by #yqr public. The notion that addressing homelessness or sustainability will come as a byproduct of large-scale investments to sports complexes (a trickle down effect) is really messed up #yqrcc
