I sure hope we can put a stop payment on that cheque before Copenhagen.

Total waste of taxpayers money, trying to usurp mother nature is a non-starter.

[CanadianJeff]

Waste of a taxpayers money. There should be an uproar over this. It's as bad as buying carbon credits!

[Doodles]

And where are we going to find this 10 Billion.
Someones taxes will be going up.

Canada is contributing ten million.

Lets just do nothing at all and blame it on someone else .

Are these Third world countries going to buy windmills or weapons with their new found cash?

Hopefully, we'll be smart enough to give them wind turbines or solar panels instead of cash.

That should be the Conservative Party slogan.

Lip service. let's just hope it's all hollow lip service and we never actually have to pay a dime.

Cross your fingers. It's all up to the brave soldiers of the American tea party movement, once the politicians have to return to their constituencies, after Obama returns from his sellout attempt at Copenhagen. The longer they can drag it out, and the closer they get to the American 2010 mid-term elections, the better for Canadian bank accounts.

Yeah, whatever you do, don't spend the 10 billion to work on developing alternative energy sources here, let's send it to some 3rd world shitholes so THEY can usurp our markets completely.

Who's usurping what now?

The Article The Article:

Canada also agreed along with other wealthy industrialized nations to contribute to a $10-billion (U.S.) fund that will help developing countries cope with the adverse impacts of climate instability, including flooding in low-lying areas.

This money is for disaster relief and prevention.
