Description

May 10, 2013 Mr. Pierre Poilievre (Nepean—Carleton, CPC): Mr. Speaker, half a million people work in Canada's energy sector. Most are blue collar folk; the backbone of our middle class. They have quietly reduced greenhouse gases by 26% per barrel since 1990. Al Gore recently insulted these people, when he accused them of using our atmosphere as an "open sewer" . Look who is talking. Gore recently stuffed his pockets with $70 million of oil money when he sold his low rated television network to dictators in petro-state Qatar. Human Rights Watch says that low paid migrant workers have their passports confiscated there so that they cannot escape Qatar's overcrowded, unsanitary conditions, which lack potable water. These abuses paid Al Gore his millions. Far from environmental profit, he is a foreign oil profiteer. That is the inconvenient truth of Al Gore.
