[Section 15] Stelmach hits the nail right through his thumb

From the CBC:

'My greatest fear is for those on fixed income, because your heating costs will go up. Just visiting your grandkids, you know, the fuel for the car will go up.'—Alberta Premier Ed Stelmach

Ignoring for the moment that Dion's Green Shift will not be taxing gasoline further, Stelmach is arguing by default that it's wrong to up the cost of carbon-polluting fuels, but that it's fine to make those precious grandkids spend their renewable resource-poor lives paying for the ills of previous generations.
