The title of the NYT article is genuinely embarrassing.
Obama Supported It. The Left in Canada and Norway Does. Why Don’t Democrats?
Well gosh if Canada sold out, why shouldn’t everyone?
I would especially want to comment about:
Norway
A country that swims in oil, and has few other natural resources of comparable value, so indeed nearly all parties support using it.
What example will he bring next, Saudi Arabia?
That aside, Norway has a huge electric vehicle adoption rate. They will sell you oil, but have themselves almost stopped using it.
Norway has tons of offshore rare earths that will likely rival the oil sector as soon as they dip into it.
I hate how this implies the Liberal Party is left, but I guess its NYT so “left-wing” is anything left of the Trump “moderates”
Democrats should embrace having principles.
Proof both sides same.
