It’s beyond obvious that the Trudeau Liberals want to crush the oilsands.
Justin Trudeau keeps trying to get everyone to disbelieve their own eyes and ears.
His actions make it clear that he wants to crush the oilsands, and the oil industry is in crisis.
Yet, he claims to support Canadian energy, pretending as if the crisis has nothing to do with him or his government.
But it’s not just Trudeau’s actions that reveal his dishonesty. It’s also who he surrounds himself with.
Particularly, Gerald Butts.
Butts, a close friend of Trudeau and his top advisor, was the head of the World Wildlife Fund Canada from 2008 to 2012.
And it turns out, in 2009, WWF Canada took $160,000 USD from the US billionaire funded Tides Foundation as part of the anti-oil sands “Tar Sands Campaign”:
I’m old enough to remember when Liberals were economic nationalists.
But never a word from Justin Trudeau or his crew about this foreign funded campaign to landlock Canadian energy.
Is that because his right hand man Gerry Butts took $ from those sources as head of @WWFCanada? https://t.co/iuvI5zFK3j

To be clear, Butts *did* take foreign money as part of the anti-Canadian energy “Tarsands Campaign” while head of @WWFCanada. Here is the US Tides Foundation’s tax filing showing a $160,000 USD transfer to WWF Canada while Butts was CEO. pic.twitter.com/mO8YTCgqHM

A larger photo of the document – showing who the Tides Foundation gave money to – can be seen below:
So, Justin Trudeau’s top advisor was glad to lead an organization that took money from a rich US group that wanted to destroy the oil sands, yet Trudeau expects us to believe that he supports Canadian eneryg, even as he’s doing exactly what Tides would want by bringing the industry down?
Not gonna happen.
