Time to climb into Mr. Peabody's  WABAC machine and travel to the dim deep long- forgotten times of the year 2010 AD... and what do we see Sherman? (for all you Rocky and Bullwinkle Show fans).

Green Leader Andrew Weaver promoting the Site C dam project. A photo of the event where the Site C dam project was launched, on April 19, 2010, shows his smiling face several rows behind then-premier Gordon Campbell. Mr. Weaver was invited to attend the splashy event as a renowned climate scientist who endorsed this massive clean energy project.

Even before then,  Weaver, as a member of Premier Campbell’s climate action advisory team, advocated for the dam. In a 2009 interview with The Globe and Mail, he urged Campbell’s government to dust off the project, which had been shelved in the 1980s.

“I cannot see what is stopping Site C,” Mr. Weaver said.

Now? Weaver says stop Site C and put thousands of workers already on the job out of work.  But hey not real jobs, eh?
