Carbon capture storage cost $1.5 billion for about a 3% reduction in saskatchewan's pollution from coal plants. That is well over $1000 for each person in the province and that will need to be increased by several hundred percent to get the province where it needs to go on carbon reduction.

Even a modest increase in the consumption of coal will vastly increase pollution and leave the tiny amount of carbon capture far behind.

CCS is WAY more costly than carbon pricing. For a conservative like Wall to be for CCS and against carbon pricing is just plain stupid. Nobody in their right mind will purchase it except for specific industrial applications, i.e., not as part of a global carbon reduction strategy.

On top of that, it is still experimental. Saskatchewan has been flogging CCS for about 10 years and has only got about one year of steady operation out of it. Real great redrider.

and SK doesn't even own it. So the province won't get a nickel back on its investment by licensing etc.
