Re: Kenney wins in Alberta
what jason has said .
During the 2015 election, Kenney told an evangelical Chinese business group in Richmond Hill, Ontario he believes the "supremacy of God" is more supreme than the authority of Parliament and the courts.
"Canada is founded upon principles which recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law," Kenney said, explaining that he interprets the preamble of the Charter of Freedoms to mean constitutional powers come from God – even though constitutional experts say the preamble is "all but ignored by the Supreme Court."
Kenney also said Charter rights flow from "being created in the likeness and image of God ... because if our rights are just given to us by a majority, or by the Parliament, or by the state, or by the judges, they can take those rights away."
As a Reform MP, Kenney offered the same bogus argument on abortion and assisted-dying to claim "the right to life" is "inalienable":

Re: Kenney wins in Alberta
So mj are you suggesting his religious belief ought to exclude him from leading a provincial party . If that were to be the case I would support no people of any religion running for any public office . It would ensure every one got the same treatment under the law. As things are today in the real world tho . Jason Kenney is free to believe in whatever God he want to
Now they want to take our guns away . That would be just fine. Take em away from the criminals first . Ill gladly give u mine. "Charlie Daniels"

CO2 is good! Do you not know that life on earth would not exist without CO2?

BTW, does anyone know where Jason's infamous brother is now? Did he manage to escape to a foreign country before being charged with abuse at his 'wellness centre' in Kelowna?

There is no runaway. That's just fearmongering. Doubling CO2 increases global temperatures by 1.35C. Doubling again increases 1.35C. Doubling again, does so again. Notice that every time you're doubling, each unit has half as much power. eg. doubling from 300ppm to 600ppm has the same effect as going from 600ppm to 1200 ppm.
