This is probably a good time to acknowledge that the current MB government isn't shaping up to have a great environmental record, taking a bold stand against the federal carbon tax and fighting to keep zebra-mussel-positive lakes to be kept open.
- I wonder if Kinew and other prov leaders are avoiding committing to the feredal carbon tax since it may very well be thrown out next year
  
  I read it as dabbling in a little populism, despite having won the election.
