Ross McKitrick: The carbon tax beats the alternatives — if done right. Here are 6 ways to fix it financialpost.com/opinion/6-ways…
Babe, tell me the truth …
This is the most important video on the internet right now. Best 90 seconds you will spend all day is watching this MSNBC clip. Seriously.
Canada is in trouble. This is the ninth budget in a row that depends heavily on excessive borrowed money managed by an obesely bloated federal bureaucracy that is now 40% larger and 68% more costly than when the Liberals took power in 2015. Unwilling to live within the tax…
Reporters and journals are powerless against RCP8.5 New study calculates climate change's economic bite will hit about $38 trillion a year by 2049 apnews.com/article/climat…
The @AEI made a brilliant move in hiring Roger Pielke. I admire his work, his personality and his willingness to "take the heat" associated with taking unpopular stands in the ongoing climate change policy debate. As usual, pun intended!!

ALL demand-side policies, which will bid up prices and make the crisis worse. We are truly at a level of economic illiteracy that's never really been seen at the federal level before.

This @TheFP piece on what went wrong @NPR by a long-time employee is irrefutable and devastatingly accurate. Institutions that can’t find their way back to viewpoint diversity will slowly, and then quickly, make themselves irrelevant. thefp.com/p/npr-editor-h…
Why can we not fix this?
I think we're at the point now where if an average Canadian was somehow put in charge of government, their top 10 legislative priorities would have zero overlap with the top 10 legislative priorities of the incumbent.
My new FP column on the economists' carbon tax letter: Even though the letter makes some valid points, the signatories ignore the real obstacles to efficient policy, and are selective in their objections to hyperbole on climate issues. financialpost.com/opinion/carbon…
Durkin’s “Climate the movie" is out. Here are some links to the science behind it (at least the stuff that I and my close colleagues worked on). Link to the movie: vimeo.com/924719370 a) The sun has a large effect on climate. There are many studies showing this (all the way…
My new Post column: Trudeau praises free market climate policies yet his Emission Plan is 99% central planning. Poilievre opposes big government and carbon taxes but remains committed to impossible targets. Someone's got to risk being honest. Oh, and about this winter we've…
Recently in the National Post @jordanbpeterson argued conservatives should move beyond attacking bad economics and confront woke ideology itself. In today's Post I argue both pathologies originate in the same place: the 1888 Communist Manifesto financialpost.com/opinion/wester…
Probably not an outlier
Why headlines blaming extreme weather on climate change don’t hold up, the peril of catastrophism, and the case that we’re actually safer than ever before... Now online — our cover story by @TedNordhaus: thenewatlantis.com/publications/d…
Somewhere in the PMO, there's a 21-year-old staffer trying desperately to find some obscure data point to hang their hat on. "Canada is now leading the world in monthly employment growth squared by per-capita emissions, minus median debt reduction per taxpayer amortized to 2035."
I have criticized the landscape surrounding high-impact peer-reviewed scientific studies published in places like Nature. But here I bring attention to Nature’s science news section, which sadly, appears to be in even worse shape: liberalpatriot.com/p/when-science…
My latest, on Canadian decline: Once we were among the richest nations on Earth. No longer. Country after country has passed us by, and more are sure to follow theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
My concern with much of the the climate change content published in Nature and PNAS is that the editors appear to anticipate how the New York Times will write up the results. "If it bleeds, it leads"! Dora and I explore this point in this paper; onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…
