Dear Editor,

The results of the Oct. 21 election had barely been announced before opposition lined up with . . .

demands that our Prime Minister cannot possibly meet. The Conservatives and western premiers want the PM to drop the carbon tax and build pipelines.

At the same time, the BQ insists that he not build pipelines. The BQ also wants more powers for Québec and, by the way, don’t touch Bill 21, the law regarding wearing religious symbols.

It seems these parties don’t care that it will be impossible for the PM, for example, to both build pipelines and not build pipelines. They seem in it only for themselves, the rest of Canada doesn’t matter.

I would like to see more cooperation and willingness to work together to solve serious issues, such as climate change, that challenge all of us.

Doug Brandy, 

Otter Lake, Que.
