This article does what most articles that profess to express facts but are really opinion pieces does: It selects facts to try to bolster the opinion and make the opinion sound as if it is uncontrovertible evidence. The author mixes up "power" and "energy", global electricity production statistics and total energy consumption-related emissions - either deliberately or because he doesn't have a full grasp of the subject matter. And of course he uses the tired argument that because Canada is such a small producer of global greenhouse gas emissions that we shouln't be compelled to do something about our emissions. As the author is no doubt aware, that kind of thinking leads to global inaction on climate change, but then, that's probably what he wants. One little parting statistic: China is very committed to the Paris Climate Change Agreement and it alone represents 28% of total global greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel combustion.
