Let’s take a conspiracy theory free dive into the topic.

The Eurasia Group is a highly respected consultancy that provides political risk assessment for the business world.
It’s run by Ian Bremmer who broadcasts his ideas on GZERO World.

Eurasia has become the landing spot for Canadian Liberals including Gerald Butts who previously advised Trudeau and currently advises Mark Carney.
Evan Solomon, a former CBC reporter and current Carney candidate is also employed by the group.

So, why does this matter?
It’s relevant only because of the ideological alignment of the Eurasia Group with Carney’s crusade for Net Zero.
You’ll recognize many familiar Canadian faces in this net zero Eurasia post.

The Eurasia Group/GZERO media demonstrates strong support of the concept of net zero.
That’s fine for a politically unaligned organization, but what are the implications when that ideology is applied to a G7 government?

In order to achieve net zero, Canada must keep its oil and gas in the ground.
This means a freeze on exploration and pipelines.
That’s what’s happened over the last decade, and that’s what will continue to happen if Carney is elected.

At an estimated 10% of Canadian GDP, oil and gas represent an irreplaceable sector of our economy.
We’ve seen a huge drop in our standard of living because the Liberals have strangled Canada’s economic engine.

The Eurasia Group is not part of a global conspiracy.
It is however very influential on Canadian Liberal thoughts and policies, including net zero.
So if you really believe Mark Carney is going to develop Canada’s oil and gas sector, you haven’t been paying attention.
