It took Andrew Scheer over a year from the time he first promised a climate change plan to deliver one so cloaked in mystery and choked with irony that perhaps few would notice a subtle change.

Last April, he said without hesitation that, “of course,” his plan would allow Canada to meet its Paris commitments — commitments first made by the Harper government. Now, he’ll say only that his plan gives Canada the “best chance” to meet those targets.

I suppose he can claim his plan has a chance to meet the targets because he hasn’t defined many of the measures he’s going to take very clearly.
