Green Shift vs National Energy Program
Prime Minister Harper, Premier Wall from Saskatchewan and others frequently use fear mongering tactics to discredit the Liberal Green Shift plan by comparing it to the dreaded National Energy Program initiated by Trudeau in 1980. I would challenge Conservative politicians or party members to identify the three objectives behind the NEP and the three goals to achieve those objectives. Then be honest and explain how the Green Shift Plan equates to the NEP.
