Canada agreed to a goal of 30 percent reduction of Green house gases by 2030. This was at the Paris accord in 2015. the base line was 2005 emissions, to set reduction plans by.
2018 broad set PCF: Canadian frame work on clean growth and climate change; backstop jurisdiction:
The charge on fossil fuel 10 dollars increasing yearly to 50 dollars by 2022.
Out put based pricing on Industrial facilities same price as equivalent fossil fuel 10 x5 = 50 dollars a ton 2022.
Government of emissions reduction, update.
On July 12 2021, Johnathon Wilson, minister filed a report to the UN saying that the commitment for 2030’s emissions level in Canada is increased from 30 percent 40-45 percent by that same year.
15 dollars per ton increase for overage in carbon emissions…
To get to the 40-45 percent reduction the government registered a 15 dollar raise in carbon tax on both backstops.
Output based base line.
The base from which facility emission is calculated is 70 % of a “Production based national average of the intensity of emissions. This cap and trade leaves 30 % to tax and set as a goal to reduce so as to lessen tax.
Net zero by 2050
Canada passed laws to support net zero growth by 2050.
Editors note:
The UN has no jurisdiction to enforce any convention, however Canada has passed a number of laws to support its participation in this endeavor. The September 20th Canadian election is obviously a necessary seeking of a parliamentary mandate to support the goals of government including the trans mountain expansion.

Net income up by 33.3 Mullion.
The net income in the second quarter increased by 33.3 million to 63,1 million, over doubling from the second quarter last year. The quarter generated a 10 million dollar tax liability due to increased income.
Two consistent quarters
Net income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 increased by $59.4 million to $114.4 million, as compared to $55.0 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase is mainly due to the $81.3 million increase in equity AFUDC, due to spending on the Expansion Project, partially offset by the $19.3 million increase in income tax expense, due to higher pre-tax income, the $2.2 million increase in interest expense, and the $2.0 million decrease in Adjusted EBITDA.

EBITDA
A company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (commonly abbreviated EBITDA, pronounced) is an accounting measure calculated using a company’s earnings, before interest expenses, taxes, depreciation, and amortization are subtracted, as a proxy for a company’s current operating profitability (i.e., how much profit it makes with its present assets and its operations on the products it produces and sells, as well as providing a proxy for cash flow).
Two quarter increase due to customer funded equity.
Customer Income toward construction, is not moved to inventory or assets, and will eventually go to capitalization.
Who is the customer.
Trans Mountain moves oil by tariff, The 12 billion dollar (funding) cost of construction of the expansion should end up as capitalized expenses and will be written off against taxable income on a scaled annual basis and rate. Meaning that if it is ever sold the deprecated rate will be subject to recapture at a selling price that morally, should shadow fair market value or better, a profit for the Canadian taxpayer when they sell..

It appears that the goals of phase 4 maybe not the conditions to
start and success will depend on individual effort as well.

from many sources including you
keeping your own. File Photo KDG
Phase 4 starts tomorrow…
John Horgan says no Sept 7th restart to normal, two weeks ago…
Phase 4 will only be achieved when COVID-19 is no longer a risk, due to an effective treatment, vaccination, or evidence of community immunity. Until British Columbia reaches Phase 4, there will be no rock concerts, conventions, or large gatherings of more than 50 people. Resumption of business, but not business-as-usual

Iron lung triage
Polio was a scrooge to the population prior to vaccinations, put on US president in a wheel chair for life. But true horror was the triage for for who might live when recourses were needed to be rationed. The truth of it is that you don’t mess with these things when they can be resolved, because that door may not always be open. I am familiar with one case where a young girl inn the 30’s involuntarily traded. her high school time for a life never getting out of an iron lung capsule.
That was a better outcome for people that go triaged out of that limited resource. Covid.19 is out there and so are you, it will find you in that 20 percent of unvaccinated. and you may triaged out because of your present health and age and the availability of treatment resources.
As provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry was announcing tighter restrictions to cover all of the Interior Health region, she said it won’t be a surprise if the province doesn’t advance to Step 4 in September.
