Heather Scoffield: A green economy budget by Chrystia Freeland needs to go beyond the fear of missing out

Canada is about to get a FOMO budget.

U.S. President Joe Biden is heading our way next week, even as he has half a trillion dollars in his back pocket to lure regular people and big multinationals alike to invest in his vision of a green economy. He and Trudeau will talk about common initiatives, but the competition between our two economies for new investment in the clean economy runs thick.

You can argue that we should have foreseen this leapfrogging of our climate ambition coming our way, and that we should have had a well-entrenched industrial policy in action already. And the federal government did indeed dabble in previous budgets. But soothing our competitive fears with subsidies and tax policy is not enough to address the $100-billion-a-year investment gap in clean energy.

The green grift is all about retaining power and the transfer of wealth

China is doing so well because they aren’t focused on E.S.G, D.E.I, woke garbage like the liberals.
