While true I believe we are neutral or even negative with the number of lakes and trees we have per capita.

actually that's incorrect when you take into account landmass and temps. Ontario alone is almost the size of Europe.

Well said! Can you imagine going back to the water-wheel, wood driven steam engine, ax and cross cut saw, wooden containers, and log cabins, with the fragrance of a fine wood fire for heat. Not to mention, plenty of wild habitat, dirt roads, wooden bridges, air free from exhaust fumes, no endangered wildlife, a regular hunting paradise. May the indigenous peoples of actually had something real, while we for our part have transformed it into something completely artificial. We have taken travel time which would have once taken days and weeks and transformed it into minutes and hours with technology and fossil fuel.

We are the biggest users of fossil fuels in the world,that is a sad fact because of our winter climate and distance for car use,plane use,.....We might be carbon neutral because of our forests and so forth BUT SERIOUSLY who are we kidding.If we are exporting oil to America and China and they are burning it off we really then become
the biggest contributors to global warming.I hope nobody seriously does not believe in man made warming when you turn on the news the evidence is there.

Imagine 6 million GTA residents marching north of highway 7 in the middle of winter into the bush to try and survive if the fossil fuel infrastructure and nuclear plants were to get shut down by some mishap.Expand that thought to the rest of Canadians suddenly without gas or propane.

I can see it all now? It'd be like scenes from those Living Dead movies? Zombies all heading north only to be swept away by the current of the French River!

That's a good one !
If there was only some way to keep them from coming south, hmm I wonder if we could deepen and widen the Credit river and remove all bridges coming south. :D
