And what is a 300% increase in wind power? Look, you are approaching this as if I am an American and I'm arguing for or against one particular party. I'm not, and you can blame the problem you have now on whoever you like. If you have an interest in pursuing the issues I brought up then do that and if you want to tutn this into a left/right American political issue then you will lose me.


Do you care about high gas prices? Do you see the positive side? After you get your new pres do you care about what happens to your country? For me the ongoing success of Canada is more important than petty politics even though I have a preference on what party governs in Canada. That is because I think I know which party will do the right things.


The right things for Canada are most likely similar in many ways to what they are in the US but one big difference is that we have oil and you do not. We are quite concerned about the environmental destruction as the tarsands projects are increased because we aren't doing it for ourselves. We're doing it for the profit and to supply the US market.


I think it is necessary for the American people to come to the realization that the oil problems are entirely related to supply and demand but the upcoming election is going to skew that understanding for now. Soon after the realization will hit full force and then the US will start to do something in earnest about it. The only question for me now is will it be too costly a problem to fix because it is coming too late?


I'm sure you Americans have faith in your ability but you may want to look at the reason why you are now at such a disadvantage.
