Gore calls Tories' green plan a 'total fraud' Last Updated: Saturday, April 28, 2007 | 3:52 PM ET CBC News
Former U.S. vice-president Al Gore, now one of the world's most famous climate-change activists, has called the federal government's new green plan "a fraud."
Gore criticized the plan while in Toronto on Saturday to attend the Green Living Show and screen his documentary on the environment, An Inconvenient Truth.
The Conservatives have said their strategy, introduced earlier in the week, will reduce greenhouse-gas emissions and improve air quality, but Gore said he's heard it all before, south of the border, and he doesn't like what he hears.
"I'm hearing a reduction in intensity is going to be presented to the Canadian people as a legitimate policy," he said at the consumer environmental show. "In my opinion, it is a complete and total fraud. It is designed to mislead the Canadian people."
Gore said the rest of the world looks to Canada for moral leadership, and that's why news of the plan was so "shocking."

The Tories must be doing something right if Al Gore is annoyed Ping.
He'll just drag you down to his level of competence and beat you to death with experience.
What does it mean if a total fraud calls your plan a total fraud anyway?
Gores whole damned life is a fraud.
His movie is a fraud, a certified fraud.
His Polar bear scene satnd out as an ourtight lie from what I am told,I havent seen it,nor do I intend to.
Since when dos the world look to Canada for moral leadership?
Gore is so full of crap ,what a phony.
The human influence on global temperatures has been outed as a fraud. Why shouldn’t the plan to address it be likewise?
If they keep Snoop out of Australia, can’t we keep this windbag out of Canada?
“who does he think he is?”
Al Gore.
I can't be sure, but I think it means that you're neglecting to buy carbon offsets from the company in which he is a stockholder.
So alGore and his NeoLibs travel north of the border, to tell
them they are incompetent....Yikes, get out of his way,
Ha Ha Ha let a fool have all the rope he needs.....freakin’ numbskull
Who asked that bloated mountebank to put his oar in?
This from the no controlling legal authority, ice tea drinking, buddist temple soliciting, carbon credit business owning, zinc mine magnate polluter, tobacco growing con artist.
He should know what a total fraud is, after all, considering he is the poster child for total frauds worldwide.
in other news, Pot calls Kettle “total black”
Wow! You should make that your tagline!
Gore would certainly know all about frauds.
Actually, I think they misspelled "alarmist."
