Was this a real exchange in the legislature? If so, who was involved? Question: “For nearly 2,000 years Santa has responsibly used coal, but the NDP are demanding the phase out of this reliable and cheap source of energy. Without coal Santa will not have anything to give the naughty children except for billions of dollars of government debt. … If the oilsands emissions cap was applied to Santa, he would have to begin scaling back toy production right now. … Does the Grinch understand the devastating impact this will have on toy production?” Answer: “What the opposition doesn’t understand is that if we don’t curtail the use of coal and the emissions of CO2, the North Pole is going to melt. What will happen to toy production then?”
