DOUBLESPEAK

Poor Mr. Kamp just can’t seem to catch a break he was unable to speak to a reporter without having set approved questions and approval from the Dear Leader and Mr. Kamp or a representative from the Propaganda Ministry were not able to attend information meeting for the same reason and for some reason Mr. Kamp believes that what came out of that meeting was one sided, I happened to be at that meeting and found it quite informative, mind you lacking in a lot of government spin and disinformation. 

Mr. Kamp assures us that Canada’s lakes and rivers are not being eroded in the interest of economics, he assures us that this is simply not the case they are definitely protecting 3 oceans 97 lakes 62 rivers,  well that is a relief, and now each municipality will get to protect their own lakes and rivers from the likes of Gateway and KinderMorgan I wonder how that will turn out when Maple Ridge is threatened with a multi-billion dollar lawsuit from China alleging municipal regulations will cost China billions of dollars in profits. Talk about David and Goliath. 

Mr. Kamp's basic argument is, I know that you believe you understand what you read, but I’m not sure you realize that what you read is not what we mean. 

The simple fact is with the the removal of legally enforceable language and the deliberate fuzzifying of all Canada’s environmental regulations Canada would not have a hope in HELL of winning any legal challenge as pertains to these laws.

Mr. Kamp says quote “ To be frank transportation experts will continue to make navigation decisions and environmental experts will continue to make environmental decisions” ( how they would do that without regulations to back them up is beyond me). Then he does a complete turnaround and Mr. Kamp says quote “ the focus is now, I believe rightly, on protecting habitat for fisheries sake, not protecting habitat for habitat’s sake”. I guess any habitat other than economically viable habitat, it’s every species and river and lake for themselves. 

Apparently economically worthless habitat is not worth protecting to Mr. Kamp and cohorts.

By the way Mr. Kamp the dictionary definition of “ habitat is the natural home or environment of an animal, plant or other organism ", and you and the Dear Leader have just put at least 95 percent of Canada’s habitat in jeopardy.
