Saskatoon energy lawyer who’s not a fan of oil and gas makes submission

In my continuing saga on the Clean Electricity Regulations, I’ve been posting many of the submissions to the Economic Assessment Tribunal. This one, in particular, caught my eye. Chad Eggerman is a very focal critic of the Saskatchewan Party government on X. especially when it comes to energy and the carbon tax.  Most of the submissions to the tribunal were requested by the tribunal. Two were not expressly solicited. Eggerman’s submission to the tribunal was one of those two, and was included in the report appendices.

 

Eggerman is a big fan of wind projects. That comes clear in his presentation. Take a look.

Also:

Another carbon capture project is going ahead in Alberta.

    1. When I clicked on the link and saw his twitter/x profile pic it was exactly what I expected.

  1. And how much government money from taxpayers, laundered through ‘indigenous’ groups or NGO’s, ends up in Chad Eggerman’s pockets?

    A-holes like these government funded activists have the nerve to call themselves “non-partisan”, one of their many, many lies. If the pipeline to his mansion failed you can bet he would be demanding that the little people fix it fast…

    1. See my comment above

      All – ALL – you need to know about this parasitic swamp-dweller!

      The Liberal Party and its associated fart-catchers, foreskin cleaners and other mediocre “couldn’t-get-a-real-job-in-private-industry”-type hangers-on – I suspect the “Conservatives” are better, although only slightly – is heavily peopled with these subsidy-sucking, taxpayer-fleecing, boondoggle-enabling buffoons

  2. Hard to take someone seriously when they condemn the libdips and have a libdip rag for Quebec on their shoulder.

  3. Someone should submit this:

    “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. “

    1. People have to be literate in order to read and understand that historical bit of truth. They also have to have courage that does not seem to exist in the 21st century in order to act on it.

    2. This is why the founding fathers later included the 2nd amendment to the US constitution.

  4. Chad Eggerman is totally wrong with his out of control liberals—– Great job Moe when idiots start raving you know they are getting the message!

  5. The Boston Tea party and the American Revolution started over a 3 cents/pound tea tax.

    Are Canadians finally taxed enough to revolt?

    1. I hope we someday discover what the price of freedom actually is. Not there yet.

      It would be amazing if SK banned Trudeau and Perogi thighs from entering the province.

  6. In my understanding, the supreme court of Canada allowed the federal government to override provincial jurisdiction but only under strict conditions. Once Trudeau gave a politically motivated exemption to a high carbon polluting form of home heating (heating oil) to help his popularity in one region (Atlantic Canada) he went against the decision of the supreme court that the carbon tax must be national and applied equally. So, Trudeau and his government are potentially breaking their own law and e opinion of the supreme court.

    How do we know it was a political move to increase popularity in Atlantic Canada? Because one of his Liberal MPs said that if western Canada wanted the same kind of exemption then they should vote Liberal (Guthrie?).

    The carbon tax is being used to punish enemies like western Canadian industries and voters because the don’t vote Liberal while rewarding regions who are Liberal allies..that’s the bigger crime, imo.

  7. Brian … I’m not being the word police … but you might want to change the title to “who’s” as in the contraction of “who is” instead of “whose” which is the possessive form of the word.

  8. In provinces with brutal winters like Saskatchewan and Alberta, you need rock solid energy security. Power outages at -40 degrees will kill people. People are beginning to realize how dangerous dependence on wind and solar can be.

    1. Oh, good grief. It’s a typo, not the end of the world. I’m sure our democracy and society will survive a typo done after midnight.
