Here's something too many people seem to refuse to understand: You have to pick your battles.
Is withdrawing from the Paris accords really the absolute top priority for you?
You'd rather the CPC die on that hill and hand another term to Trudeau than to compromise on that issue (since that's what the electorate wants) and then be able to dleiver you all of this?

I'm honestly asking: What would you prefer, another for years of Trudeau (including Paris compliance), or a Conservative government doing all of the above, but also doing Paris compliance.
You're getting Pairs compliance no matter what because no party that stands against climate hysteria will win the next election. So you might as well be an adult about it and put that one in the "Can't win 'em all" column for the sake of getting what the change that is feasible. You live in a democracy, which means you have to compromise on some issues to get what you want on others. That's literally the whole point of democracy - you're negotiating a trade with the other side.
Erin just threw away thousands of principled conservative votes so he could gain MAYBE a dozen flipflopping centrists by endorsing the UN. Some strategy.
Climate change being the most important issue to voters means he's going to gain more votes than he'll lose by doing that. That's why he did it.
Ham you're taking all sorts of shit, but you're absolutely right. Can't win em all, is the right attitude.
Really, I just want those goddamn pipelines (which honestly...It feels like it'll never happen in my life time, they've been a discussion point for 10 years...) and the middle finger to China and an open hand to the US.
The US was really the first country to say "fuck that" to the Paris Accords.
Well, it's the most important issue to voters, so he can either do that, or lose the election.

Here's your two options:
Spare me the emotional rhetoric. It counts for nothing.
Now what's it gonna be? Do you want to pay a carbon tax or not?
Climate change being the most important issue to voters means he's going to gain more votes than he'll lose by doing that. That's why he did it.
You mean choose Trudeau, because that's all that pissing away your vote will accomplish.
