    Freedom of expression is very important, so I propose a compromise. Display as much advertising and other propaganda as you like, but no actual burning of fossil fuels is allowed anywhere within city limits. Temporary exceptions to be made for fire trucks, construction equipment, and essential freight deliveries so long as it can be show that there is no current alternative and there’s a credible plan to create one within five years.

    I think that following the passage of sensible legislation preventing fossil fuel companies from lying in advertisements about how green they are, they are now using new tactics.

    I saw a similar billboard to the one in the Narwhal article in Toronto this week. It said some bullshit like “A strong oil and gas sector means more for all Canadians”. LMFAO
