As a 69% Government Funded media it is probably just a JT paid ad so he can up the carbon taxes.
Let's defund cbc and fund social programs to help those in need. That's how real change will start. Cbc is bloated and a waste of money at a time people are barely able to feed themselves.
At some point in the future, not sure when, flying is likely to become prohibitively expensive if climate change is seriously addressed. It's going to be a very painful thing to reduce or stop. We all love cheap travel.
To those talking about private jets: you're not wrong. Also, some people are required to travel a lot due to their jobs.
A giant slingshot is a cleaner option
Where is our high speed rail and express bus services then?
Doesn't your boss fly in from New York. Hypocrites with Liberal agendas
Defund CBC
15 minute city rhetoric there. So it begins..
Trudeau needs to hear this
Have you called out JustinTrudeau for his ridiculous usage of the private jet yet?
Nope
You have to believe there’s a climate emergency before you can accept that Co2 is a problem.
Yea sure, I’ll just catch that high speed train from Canada to Thailand! Muppet!!!
seems like most people feel they deserve to pollute, regardless of the consequences .. why?
OUR air travel? Haven't flown in over 4 years. How many time has our climate hypocrite PM JustinTrudeau taken to the air?
Congratulations to you now leave the rest of us alone.
Start with him...
When Govt leaders discover zoom, rail, and not zipping around the country for photo opps, come talk to me. Until then, beat it. And no, I do not care about carbon offsets, which are of dubious effectiveness.
Propaganda like no tomorrow, The world is not gonna end ,
Bullsh!t
So, will PresidentCBCRC be taking the greyhound from Brooklyn when she deigns to grace the country with her presence every 6 months?
GFY DefundTheCBC
Go ahead
And here is just another 'Conspiracy Theory' come true. Wow the sheep just don't get it, THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT HERE TO HELP YOU, THEY WANT TO CONTROL YOU!!!!!
Please tell this to the politicians that traverse the planet telling us to fly less.
Ok UN Agenda 2030 - don't comply
What the fuck happen to taking a fucking boat it’s not rocket science you hop on a boat for cheap and get where u want to go BillNye save the earth while we can.
Hard no.
Is this letter addressed to my buddy Trudeau?
This is the most pathetic fear mongering news organization and they’re killing this country
Politicians and aristocrats first
Tell that to your pimp daddy
Riiight.🙄. Except those that can 'offset'. Who just happen to be the same people telling you to give up everything 🙄.
Beam me up Scotty!
And it begins... We knew this would happen...
A canoe and a paddle. Sure! 😃
Air travel will be canceled altogether very soon for us peons. Not the 'elite', just us
Tell that to those that push this to lead by example, if things are as bad as they say, maybe they should get rid or private jets/yachts and travel with the rest of us.
Other transportation options dont get me where I want to go. PierrePollievere4PM DEFUNDCBC
Gonna see the news stories advocating for this like vaccine mandates. First save grandma, now save mother earth. Incoming climate lockdowns. We warned you. It's all part of their lockstep WEF plan.
Honestly, just go pound salt already.
Carbon credits incoming
The government ministers of JustinTrudeau and he himself spew more jet fuel than 100x themselves of Canadians
Oh shut up
Whoever wrote this and whatever editor let this opinion out better not try to fly on one of my planes.
Shame on you and your federal government propaganda. We need much more travel & free markets. Maybe send a message to your boss, sparkle socks, to slow down his travel via private planes
Net zero
What nonsense, how about we get Montreal, Vancouver, and Victoria to stop dumping raw sewage into the oceans and rivers first
What impact? CO2 is great for the environment It’s plant food 🙄
Ok sure. Start with politicians and celebrities first
F🤬ck off PressTITUTES!
That is your opinion. I feel your opinion is ridiculous.
Tell that to the elites who travel from city to city on Jets and then tell us we should stop driving our cars
Too bad Canada ripped up all their railway lines.
Lock all the plebs down into 15-minute Gulags, make sure they can only enter their specific areas via digital ID, make sure they only get leave pass privileges with a social credit score, make sure only the wealthy who can afford to offset their carbon footprint can travel abroad
Ask your beloved PM the same question DefundTheCBC
FU !!!!!! ✈️🛫🛬🛩️🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🥳🎊🥳
RadiopirateLive
trudeaunationaldisgrace didn't get the memo.
Hell no.
There should be off track betting on where CBC goes next. It'll be 15 min cities and bugs
Defund the CBC. Permanently. Fire them all.
GFY CBC you disgusting hacks.
Perhaps you should shut up and stop telling people what you believe. Perhaps right to our government officials whom travel on private jets and use up more emissions than Canadians do in one year
You mean only the wealthy will be able to fly when they want as the middle class loses another norm. 15 minute cities cutting back on air travel etc. Keeping people in the hamster cages. Control control and more control
Radical Left Progressives are on an all out Global Blitz to take away our Rights at every angle possible And of course cbc is leading the way
Your opinion
What are the ecological impacts? What data did you review to verify that there are any ecological impacts? There is no climate emergency, and co2 does not control the climate. Stop the propaganda!
Bullshit propaganda by
Sorry but I was banned from air travel for two years on account of my vaccination status. I've got plenty of catching up to do.
Keep pushing that agenda. You're waking up, the sleeping and we'll be stronger than ever! 'Freedumbers' unite!
Nope!
No.
But your favourite fly’s from Ottawa to Montreal or Toronto daily. With side trips to vacation at Tofino while telling us to not fly such LiberalHypocrisy
It's time to defund the
CBC always pushing the globalist narrative.
Talk to the Liberal government in Canada
I’m great because I don t travel frivolously. I only travel when it’s important. I’m a fake greenie Blah blah blah.
Cbc should stop posting period .
Does that mean PM Turd will stop using his jet , bc he s the biggest contributor
Here's an idea PierrePoilievre . When you shut down the leftist media org , you can take that $1.5 Billion per year and invest in carbon offsets for average Cdn 'one vacay per year' flyers. That way, CBC is happy (though out of a job) and Cdns get a much needed break.
DefundCBC
Maybe you should remind your hero old Black Face, corruption plagued Trudeau? DefundCBC TrudeauIsDestroyingCanada
Trudeau first
Are you kidding me!
What are the lengths of TrudeauDestroyingCanada 3 shortest flights? Go ahead, I’ll wait.
Sure... Right AFTER Yachts and ALL private jet are banned.
High-speed rail can't come fast enough. The price of flights are out of range for most now
Of the 17 flights logged by the prime minister over the past 30 days, 10 were for flights under an hour
tell that to the PM
There are no better transportation options than flying, Can't get from Vancouver to the Caribbean without flying unless you can work from anywhere because it will take exponentially longer than any other method than flying. CBC, you really do suck.
How else will all the vegans and evironmental activists go on trips for their instagrams though?!?
You will own nothing and be happy
‘Demand better options’. Lmao!!! Clowns believe that physics cares about their opinion!!🤡🤡🤡
Start with politicians and celebrities. Then we can talk about the peasants who take one trip every year or two. Until then, piss off with this garbage.
Hey, JustinTrudeau , I think they're talking about you.
Sure , Justin’s challenger was dead heading last week after his 10 minute flight across Ontario. He must be saving the planet 1 air mile at a time . Delete your Acc CBC ..
Cbc still a science denier. So sad.
What its the public China is 1,454,507,737 india pop d1,424,796,202 do not ;US 336,384,875 canada 36million carbon tax canada is going to save the planet
Really looking forward to high speed rail across the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans.
When you're locked down in your 15 minute communities, will you then be happy?
Use zoom for meetings….luxury of travel may be over.
Yeah right in line with the WEF. CBC has lost all credibility.
But that's Trudeaus favorite past time
As I expected for the last 1.5 years, soon there will be restrictions imposed on our movement. What will it be CBC? Allowance of 1 flight back and forth per person per year? And if you have an emergency you will have to apply for an exemption? Wake up people!
Oh there you go, another WEF initiative and Trudeau’s mouthpiece doing their best job at starting the conversation. I’ve been waiting for this one coming for a while. GFY , Trudeau, Liberals and all the WEF puppets.
Does Canada have high speed trains or something?
The entire premise of the argument is false.
No thanks.
😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡 what….
We should start with with the eco extremists and the politicians. Lead by example right?
Well that was quite the sanctimonious piece.
High speed train. We need a massive project just like when the existing railway was put into place. Their will be challenges, no question. I think it makes sense for Canada, however as for global travel, I don’t have a suggestion
Get lost with your liberal funded communist nonsense! We will defund you as soon as possible and shut down this liberal propaganda machine!
Get local entertainment folks: Check CBC News for when the local drag queen will be performing a strip tease for your kids in the local library. All is well in the great North, be happy, save the earth!!
Go away you Globalist MSM shills. Climate change is not man made. It's called science.
Like the great green transition, the cart is being placed before the horse… want us to transition to something acceptable to you, then have an alternative available… otherwise, enough of the virtue signalling!
I will follow the example of my betters and stop flying when they do
Rules for thee, not for me.. again.
'Now that I've done all MY traveling, and let me tell you, it was life changing and mind-blowing, you'd better stop traveling too.' 🙄
I on the other hand,self identifing as a senior nomad, refuse to be cowed by silly climatic climaxes. Stay at home, freeze, die because of non existence medical coverage, starve because the local supply chain destroyed by marketing boards and excess taxation your choice.
And yet countless delegates from around the world fly to sit in fancy UN faculties to discuss the negative impacts of CO2 emissions😂😂😂
Enjoy living in your bubble. My wifes family is in the Philippines. We have decided not to swim.
Opinions are like ashsoles: everyone at cbc gets paid to have one.
Feel free to stay home.
Dear CBC, I am becoming more on the side of defunding you, are you actually paying someone to write this?
You better tell that Black face lesser than in Ottawa then. Cause he has a Carbon footprint that would kill a planet.
What do you suggest for a trip cross country for urgent personal reasons?
No. No it's not
I've heard sailing ships used to be all the rage long ago and far away 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You had better send this in a special statement to Trudeau , the GG and any other politician that flies on our dime everywhere
It’s ALL Agenda 2030.
Defunding the CBC would cut down on more than 47% of Co2 emissions coming out of Canada.
Yes that 3 day train journey from Toronto to Vancouver makes sense. I have always said Canada has a pathetic trot network. Train must be able to do Toronto to Montreal in 1 to 2.5 hrs and that will take an entirely new type of system. Let’s go Liberals make it happen.
Oh ya? Have we invented some other form of transportation that we haven't heard of yet?
JustinTrudeau Your planes pollute too.
Are you for real......
Opinion: The CBC is filth, endorses the abuse of children and should be wiped of all tax dollars
Not happening, especially with winters like ours
It's time to fire every single CBC employee.
Kinda hypocrisy too ask the public to stop flying when EVERYONE in the g20 meeting did in fact fly to Switzerland ^^ but sure make the public pay for the incompetence of politicians
Great article CBC! More of this please.
What a terrible opinion…
So she has criss-crossed the globe and had wonderful life experiences in other countries, but if you are young, you shouldn't do it. Whoa.
🤣🤣🤣 easier said than done
It'd be nice if Greyhound was still in business ! I liked taking the bus
The PM flew from Kitchener to Toronto. Start there
Let's just do what all the politicians and global elitists like Al Gore do....fly on private jets. That'll fix 'climate change'.
The author suggests buses instead of air travel. Yes heavy demand for the Toronto to Vancouver bus run. Only takes 4 days and 47 stops. How do people this unserious get air time?
Well I guess we could look into fying saucers. I heard there were a number of them in Canadas airspace recently. Could the CBC provide a contact number. Because your ideas are out of this world.
‘I travelled. You shouldn’t’. Is that the point of this article? Another ‘opinion’ piece that is paid for all of us Canadian taxpayers. Thank you CBC and Canadians from coast to coast can’t wait until our tax dollars are diverted elsewhere instead of the CBC.
As soon as all government and elite retire their private jets, you can talk about how often regular people fly
Yes, lets go back to the days when it took a month to get from the US to the UK.
Emissions dropped in 2020 when the middle class stopped flying, we had very little growth, and we had wfh/sfh
Very true...
Falling right in line with agenda 2030 where the agenda says flights will be reduced to zero or ppl will be allowed only two flights a year based on their carbon footprint.
📢 LIKE HIGH-SPEED ELECTRIC TRAINS. 🚆🚄
GFY DEFUNDCBC
I have 3 wks vaca/year. Imagine taking a ship to Australia and back? As far as I know “beam me up Scotty” has not been invented just yet!!!
Because of this ridiculous opinion we all must increase our travel by 60% until billionaires, politicians, Hollywood, reporters and brown media in general start riding bikes. STOP THE HYPOCRISY! Hypocrites FalseCases ClimateScam
Walk to Cuba for vacation, pleb
DefundCBC
Don’t care
This is where I appreciate the idea of Belt and Road . . . we could have trains that speed at Mach 5+ and take up a fraction of the energy. And, we could go back to a service first policy instead of this bulk transit BS.
I stopped flying also and stopped eating meat, ... save the planet
Good grief. Go live in a cold dark cave!
Lol if only all those elites would lead the way, let's see those globalist climate activists in Davos with their private jet fleets. First ban private jets per passenger they are far worse then commercial travellers. Oh and get bent.
But we'll allow the rich and powerful to fly when, and wherever they want. Will CBC call out JustinTrudeau for all the unnecessary flights he takes, that could be accomplished with a simple zoom meeting?
Stop this BS about carbon in our atmosphere, let us live our damn lives, the planet isn't only for the super rich!
Best to tell that to Trudeau
FFS. This is news worthy and “concerning” for an opinion piece?
Rules for thee, not for me
This is a perfect example of clueless rich white entitled people. When I was young we went on no flying vaca.But now I can afford it but shouldn't. My dad was dying of cancer but I should have stayed home because the princess has wearied of flying - politics of rich narcissists
For the love of GOD DefundCBC

Garbage editorial from a garbage network
Maybe you direct your comment to JustinTrudeau who seems to take a plane to buy groceries.
😃😃😃
Tell that to the Trudeau liberals because they are the worst violators of this on the face of the planet.
I'd be on board with this if it wasn't for the true fact that man-made climate change theory is 100% organic bullshit.
You first
So the Laurentian Elite and the other 1% get to polute the crap out in styl but now us common serves can’t even escape the cold in Mexico for 9 days every few years? You should calculate what Trudeau and the Governor General plow out in CO2!
People need to burn old tires out of spite.
Can we count on CBC and all its management and employees to take an EV where ever they go? No we can't so sftu.
I think CBC should focus on writing TRUE stories about its citizens instead of pushing liberal garbage funded by the global elites (WEF/Gates/Soros/UN/WHO). ALSO, how about we start by leading by example & ban PRIVATE PLANS that all the rich take everywhere on a daily basis
Tell it to Trudeau and other elites. The rest of us are jam packed into commercial airplanes like sardines. That said, I’d love other options, like rail. Ours is so bad Trudeau’s own transportation minister had to cancel his cross-country rail tour. Embarrassing.
stooges
Do an investigative report on this the hypocritical PM
Travel in Canada is more efficient by aircraft. If you've ever driven across the country (me--several times), it's great, but the fuel consumed is substantially higher than that with your bum in an airline seat. Unless what you mean is, stay home and eat bugs. Yeah?
You must mean cut the billionaires travel with private planes?
I guess it is just a good thing that no intelligent person cares for state funded CBC opinions anymore.
Fah! Q!
Yeah, I guess we’ll use those Air Balloons 🎈
No.
CO2 is .04% of the atmosphere, and the human contribution an insignificant fraction of that, an inconvenient truth. The whole climate scam is meant to bring in Communism for the voters while the politicians laugh it up in their taxpayer funded jets while eating steaks.
Is this a joke? Elites are traveling in private planes all over the place all the time. But us little people shouldn't? G.F.Y.
Fuck that. Start with Trudeau.
Nationalized High Speed Rail. Its a nationwide jobs program + A move towards real environmental impact No more you being jammed into a cramped seat. Bar cars, Daycare cars, Movie cars Medical cars, Dining cars, sleep pods Mag Lev HS Rail would be a game changer
Until private jets are banned, go pound sand.
Bahahahahaha. Apparently this is not “Trudeau Approved “ message
If you’re flying, you’re polluting. For decades to come. Square that circle, environmentalists. Walk the walk. Show us how to do it. Kinda puts the big pic into perspective, eh?
Like walking
15 minute cities dont need air travel
No thank you. Glad you’re happy with your decision. I think I’ll keep flying.
When the elite stop flying in private jets to climate conferences and around the globe I might consider it.
Send this to Justin Trudeau....the most Costly PM in Canadian History. ClimateHypocrite
Winterized camels 🐫 🐫 🐫
Opinion: Trudeau can lead by example.
Funny that we all predicted this the moment they pulled out the vaccine passport BS.
More CBC garbage DefundCBC
When CBC starts reporting about reducing or banning something (gas stoves, tipping, language policing) you know that it's really the federal govt planting the seed of their coming agenda.
All aboard!
Once they figure out transporters airplanes willbe obsolete…so get to work!
Talk to JustinTrudeau he is in charge of climate
Let’s ban all private jets and yachts didn’t say CBC columnist
Does that include all the celebs, billionaires, and politicians who fly to those environmental conferences in all those private jets? Asking for a friend.
When governments stop flying so will I
Ahhh yes…YOU GOT TO TRAVEL…but now YOU’ve unilaterally decided that’s enough for YOU and everyone else because…well..YOU feel NOW it’s the right thing to do. Stupid and selfish but expected. Try thinking of how the planet has flourished due to modern air travel. Dumb article
Tell this to those people instead who fly private planes. People crammed into economy class aren't the problem.
What a biased ridiculous piece. Keep your opinions to yourself.
Flights in Canada are crazy expensive. Service is shit. It is less to flyfrom Ontario to Jamaica then Ontario to Newfoundland. Why?
Why don’t we start by banning private airplanes?
Pretty funny article.
Aren't there solar powered jets by now? Nope and there never will be. Man made climate change is a socialist fraud.
It’s not realistic to think that every travel can be accommodated by using car, train or ship and still be better for the environment. The airline industry is constantly looking for ways to create more energy efficient planes. I also don’t envision a future where people don’t fly…
Really🙄 , tell that to your boss
Sure! Let's put hundreds of thousands of people in the airline and aviation sector on the unemployment line. We can send them to work in China where they open 2 coal fired power plants every week.
How convenient for you, now that you’ve done your worldly adventures to advise others to stay put. Yes, we can all do better, but I find your advice somewhat hypocritical.
We can also ask for better media options since you are paid by the gov!!
Screw you. Elites flying private jets and sailing on yachts telling the common folk to cut back. Typical WEF propaganda best ignored.
NO!
Why is state run CBC peddling woke nonsense? Cut the funding now
When the elites get rid of all their private planes is when I’ll consider reducing my 1 flight every 1-2 years. I’m on a plane with 100 people whereas the elites are on a plane with a few. Wonder who pollutes more? Another cbc propaganda piece paid by WEF Trudeau
First cut in air travel must be politicians and their bands of flunkies. Do 100 people have to fly to every cause and issue meeting in the world? No!
FU
We can reduce Canada's emissions by 10% by taking away turdo's plane.....remember, he's the D bag who flew from one side of montreal to the other to avoid traffic.
CBC pushing WEF policy. What a surprise 🙄.
Typical Champagne Socialist. I did this. I enjoyed doing it. I profited from it. Now let me keep all the money I made, and you stop having fun or making money.
Lol of course. But, the wealthy can still fly their private jets. What kind of world are we trying to save? One where we can’t do anything. No thanks.
Okay then find an adequately efficient method. No one is taking a slow ass Canadian train that goes slower that a vehicle from point a to b so instead of suggesting, do something. Create hypersonic tubes
If every Canadian human stopped flying-- and eating, working, and breathing-- the world's CO2 emissions would go down by 1.6 percent.
The Barney copter perhaps?
Opinion: It’s time the main stream media beholden to globalism, got called on the carpet by humanity for trying to program us all to accept death from the elites. GFY! Nuremberg 2.0 is coming.
Well, anyway 🤡
Someone needs to develope transporter technology
Typical CBC left wing BS.
Trudeau first. Lead by example, right
That’s not the. Opinion of the PM He’s been doing record flying lately. The rest of us should be allowed to travel a bit before we croak. We’ve been paying taxes and saving for all our working lives. But No, We still pay while the elites still travel.

Quick tell trudeau
No.
🤣 you might want to inform your sugar daddy fuhrer JustinTrudeau …
Absolutely. We could have a fantasist passenger rail network across North America… flying is unnecessary unless travelling overseas.
oh yeah let’s not forget almighty Turdeau who flies from Toronto to London to avoid traffic on the 401 and who literally flies more than anyone who’s preaching about climate change. let’s not forget the 80’car motorcade that we saw last week. ClimateScam
Hey CBC when the climate hypocrite elites stop flying their corp jets first then maybe we will take this seriously. Until then 🖕🖕
Booked my steam boat to Mykonos this summer. Leaving in May for my August arrival.

How many solar panels could we buy for the 1.4 billion in propaganda money forcefully taken from the Canadian public every year to pay for this garbage....?
How’s that going to work 5 days to sail to Europe?

If you are worried about CO2, private jets emit as much CO2 in an hour as a typical family car does in a year. If you care about CO2, you should be lobbying to ban private jets.
Get real
Sure, when they stop doing this...
And how does that work for business travel?
Yes. Let's build intercontinental highways.
Nothing but mindless propaganda coming out of this outlet.
'it's time to cut back on our air travel' It's time to defund the CBC!
You people are oblivious to how insanely biased, to liberals and liberal policies, you are!
Narrator- 'she's not an avid traveler'
I live on the most easterly point in North America on an island. It takes 900 km to get to a ferry to get off this island or approximately the distance from Paris to Munich. Plus I have a job with 4 weeks vacation. I'm flying dammit.
Better tell your buddy's that they invest first in high-speed rail lines before cutting back air travel.
DefundCBC
Hmmm... maybe you should share this opinion with JustinTrudeau
Just one of many examples whereby the PM flies endlessly, preaches ‘climate change’ and keeps jacking up the carbon tax. Hypocrite.
Cbc is all opinion.
Uh huh. Because this is the lecture us common folk need to hear, right? For fuck's sake, CBC, where do you find these people?
Justin Trudeau first
If we could get all the climate crusaders to stop flying it would be a great start. Maybe you guys at CBC could mention this to your boss Justin.
start with JustinTrudeau
More pure garbage journalism from CBC
The leaders of our countries can be the first to cut back. Set the precedent for us. Last time i checked, the people who want to invoke these rules are the ones contributing the most to pollution.
Would you like food trucks at stop delivering food also
Talk to Justin.
How about we stop flying the day allour fearless leaders like Trudeau and Biden stop flying. Hypocrisy at its best. Doesn’t the president of the CBC fly between her home and the office a tad bit as well?
Tell that to the pm whose flown almost half the days that have already passed this year
The 15-Minute city and Carbon footprint tracking will do that. These are new policies being implemented by the WEF. And Canada, in case you didn’t know lol, is run by the WEF. Oh, and GFY too🖕🏼TrudeauForTreason UselessEaters

The guy who signs your paycheques takes 20 SUV’s to the grocery store
Okay. Can you start with the hypocrite that funds your organization? JustinTrudeau
“Stay put.” I don’t think so. Travel to learn about people, their cultures, and see this wondrous planet. Until a ship can catapult me to Europe in the same amount of time as air travel, I’ll continue to fly. “Stay put.” What a stupid thing to say. You do you, pal.
That business trip could have been an email
This CBC story reads like a prelude to the gov’t mandating digital ID under the disguise of climate change, whereby travellers will be tracked and data collected on flights and destinations.
Actually, in my opinion, it's time for news agencies to start reporting news. I'm good with my own opinions thanks.
Problem is I will not go to the USA as there are too many problems and I could get shot just being in a restaurant or store

Think outside the box. Think....canoes and kayaks.

Your hopeless leaders flies more than air Canada, sit down
Like driving our gas / diesel vehicles? Stupid article.
Yeah we'll say that to our liberal politicians and all our Hollywood Elites that use private jets and airplanes to travel all over the place!!
Trudeau....the worst offender in Canada 25 car motorcade, 20 min flights.
Ppl being so openly selfish in the comments it's just sad
Conditioning people to accept what's coming. This media is corrupt.
You bootlicking Trudeau supporters actually feeding off the liberal teat have no shame whatsoever. Had a look at what has happened in Holland and France? Just keep pissing the Canadians off.
'Help the earth and stay put' 🤣🤣🥴🥴
There are millions of immigrants in Canada with close family overseas. Air Travel is the only way for them to visit their old parents and close families and even manage business & investments overseas. How do you propose they travel ? Ship, Snow Mobile, Bicycle, Horseback?
It starts with the PMO…please lead by example
People are not paying attention. They want to recover from pandemic and take trips. Don't care about pollution right now.
Ok great… Ban private jets first.
So we need ships to go across the ocean to visit other countries? Even within Canada, it's a vast country. People who immigrate here are shocked by the distances you have to travel between provinces & cities. You want to lock us up? This is becoming so contrived & overdone.
It begins. Another 'conspiracy theory' that will come to fruition in a couple short years.
Hahahaha...get real. Are you seriously suggesting we go back in time and take ocean liners for 5 days to get to Europe? We're supposed to be moving forward, not backward.
Yah sir flys a lot is setting a good example 🤡

Didn’t you CEO earlier this year fly across the country trying to drum up support for CBC? Doesn’t she also fly home to the USA on a regular bases?
The top 20% of income earners air travel, the rest of us can't afford it. Plus over 1 million immigrants air travel, deal with that.
Camels and horses
Are you talking to us plebs? Cuz JT and crew travel like they don't care.
Beam me up Scotty.
No
Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.
When politicians and celebrities and climate change activists start taking the bus or boat to WEF, any of the G7 or G10 conferences or any other gathering of the elites then I’ll give it some thought. All this rhetoric does nothing then push people away from this climate crisis
Yeah, I'd like teletransportación, no mask please
Are you serious defund the damn cbc
Well CBC maybe start talk to your dear old friend Mr sockboy Trudy and all his friends first.
😂 we have a Prime Minister who has logged hundreds of thousands of air miles for unnecessary photo ops to satisfy his huge ego. I will continue travel as I see fit & CBC can file this propaganda piece in the trash bin where it belongs
We had a train system in Canada where did it go?
If government pays for yoyr ticket. Air miles goes to tax payers. Ground Trudeau and GG. Lead by example
High Speed Rail coast to coast should be a priority. Would create thousands of jobs and be an economic and environmental beacon to the world. Canada needs to get back into mega projects!
And your life will be spent within your 15-minute cities.

The CBC and Liberal Party want you to stay home while Trudeau flies around the world incessantly. Remember when he flew to Tofino to go surfing in the afternoon on Reconciliation Day? Good times..
First you have prove there IS a climate crisis.
Given the ecological impacts of the propaganda industry, it's time to cut back on our media time and demand other, better communication options.
Well, I didn't fly much in the first 45 years of my life so it's my turn I guess.
This is as stupid....as saying Trudeau has helped Canadians. Why is CTV so far off base. Oh...I remember.
Opinion: Given the amount of air travel our jet setting politicians do.....GFY. It's time to cut back on politicians salaries and travel and demand better options in candidates.
Yeah ok. But first JustinTrudeau has to cut back in jetting around and use Zoom or other technology for his all important meetings. He blabs about the climate but his actions speak louder. How much time does he actually spend on the ground?
Other? Better? Aren't you all just special. Blessyourheart fantasyisland
Now that I've got my travelling done, everyone cut back. My travel is important, yours isn't.
'better transportation options'
Opinion: DefundTheCBC
Sail boats it is. Ahoy Captain
Maybe keep your opinions to yourself.
I think all government workers should do everything over Zoom and everything they say should be shared with the Public. No more secret meetings.
Lol. When emperor blackface parks the plane and shows up for work, I'll consider it. Not that I can afford it with the extortionate taxes we constantly get hit with.
I fly Toronto to Montreal all the time. I won't give that up
No.Creating a problem!An Intro to carbon passports.Surpass ur personal allowance & u’ll be locked down! It’s coming & if u can’t see that far,u’ll be doing yourself,kids & grand kids a huge disfavour!By the way,🇨🇳 🇮🇳 🇷🇺 don’t have climate legislations & theyre the worst polluters
There it is. Here come the climate lock downs. Liberals will be enforcing this soon.
Right on cue. It starts. Government will attach carbon usage and deduct from our soon to be issued yearly carbon allotment. Go over and $$$$ you pay. You will own nothing and be happy in your 15 minute community.
YOU might want to start with YOUR fucking justintrudeau prime minister!
If your a trudeau liberal or work for cbc you could travel by ballon there's Tons of hot air from both for that .
When Trudeau stops flying around the world in his plane then I too will stop travel.. Hypocrite.. If travel is good for him then travel is good for me too...
Starting with the PM, who flys 4 out of every seven days.
NO!
DefundCBC should lower our carbon footprint
Just get Trudeau, his useless cabinet and the useless GG to stop taking pointless flights and problem solved!
Will the elites stop flying their jets? Or are just us peasants supposed to not travel?
You first.
Tell JustinTrudeau that…seems to burn a lot of fuel on CMC01 much more then necessary
Start with JT… GFY…
Ugh
STFU
Useless opinion totally detached from the real world and how people actually live. You want to never travel to other countries, and to rely on train services like Via rail to cross Canada? Knock your socks off.
May I suggest a Zeppelin !! Comes with Led ZEP music throughout your trip 🤘🏻
I offset my carbon from travel using KlimaDAO It’s easy!! ClimateAction guiltfree
No problem, I will take the train when I go to Vietnam.........
Nonsense
This is a f’ing joke!!
Im 60 years old, and I just took my first flight 3 yrs ago. I’m niw have the time to travel. Don’t you dare tell me to stop just because you were entitled before.I want to see the world too. You are a very selfish person to expect this of people
Maybe send this to PM Blackface
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ground photo Op PM and plane first.
Sounds about right. Only the elitist liberals will be deemed important enough to fly and own a vehicle.
And the rich are the only one that could travel
Just for you peasants.
By we... I assume you mean the common classes. Surely you are not calling on the elites to sell their private jets? Trudeau wouldn't like that. He prefers the 30,000 foot view on his subjects
This is just such a smug, arrogant, ignorant take. Go away...
Have one of your fine reporters do a global view of air traffic on the 'Flightradar24' app. The carbon footprint is tiny in Canada. Tell JT the news! He's CFC1 on the grid.
Let’s lock truedope up and save millions of tons of air pollution
Ask this of your government officials. PM included
Cool cool, tell that to the private jet owners and let us know what they says.
NO! Stop it now! The opinion writer can keep he's evil opinion to himself.
Oh, eff off, CBC!
The rich & privileged want their uncluttered playgrounds back.
Go to hell.
Little by little folks this is how the state will try to control every part of your lives. Stop letting them. What you’re allowed to say, what you eat is coming if you let them, who & when you’re allowed to visit with. 15 minute cities are a thing they’re proposing! DefundTheCBC
This narrative seems to align with 15 minute cities? No?
Ok, let me know how to get to Europe from Canada
Oh piss off. I’ll get on a plane whenever and wherever I want to and I don’t give a rat’s ass what you think about it.
When I fly it's good. When Liberals fly it's bad.
The CBC Liberal propaganda machine can simply and politely go f*ck themselves, again. DefundTheCBC
i have a better idea- how about we cut back on funding your useless! news organization and the bullshit you continuously spew !!
Making private jets illegal would stop the environmental movement dead in it's tracks. Imagine the indignation of the plutocrats forced to fly first class.
CBC has a huge carbon footprint
Trudeau spends more time in the air than on the ground ,so grounding that black face wearing buffoon would probably cut aviation related pollution by 70%.
Plus the airlines arriving notorious for canceling at the last minute, then it cost a fortune to rebook same day flight on a different airline.. gov won't protect passenger rights...
Cringe. I’m embarrassed for the author.
Try telling the government officials,especially the pm and the elites to stop traveling
Ok. No thanks.
Uuh, suuuure. I too will give up air travel just as soon as I’m done indulging in all of my life enriching round the world travel experiences. Honestly I’m starting to wonder if the CBC is publishing these embarrassingly hot takes to beclown the left.
LOL LOL LOL any comment on the use of our PM and the GG's flying habits LOL LOL LOL
This article is written by someone who has admittedly logged 10s of 1000s of km flying. But now that they've ticked off all of the destinations on their bucket list they're ready to start shaming those who still want to travel. Sit down.
With all the pilots dying mid flight from the jab we just might have to
The solution is some sort of giant apparatus that sucks carbon out of the air and we can all drive our big trucks and fly anytime we want. Oh wait. This already exists. They are called trees. Plant more trees and stay away from my vacation plans.
Feels like an iron curtain is closing around Canada.
Oh please stop! This is not happening. Even David Suzuki flys every day
Maldives gets nearly 40% of their GDP from tourism. By 2050 the island could be uninhabitable due to rising seas by some reports. Eliminate the greatest contributor to wealth and it'll be uninhabitable sooner than that
On behalf of execs, celebs, political leaders, climate conference participants, and business people everywhere, thanks for that effort to keep the unwashed masses out of our airports. A for effort.
Stop with the climatescam nonsense, its just a money racket!!
No. You don’t get to control me, no matter how special you think you are.
Start with the PM, he flies 80% of the time.
Laughs in Trudeau and his vacations abroad.
Opinion: Given the kickbacks from the green grifters, it’s time to propagandize air travel and normalize mobility restrictions in the name of saving the planet.
Only VIPs should get to fly. A Chinese style social credit system will help us stop excessive air travel, and of course, freezing Canadian’s bank accounts.
Stupid article.
All the people flat out saying no ... Y'all got a planet b to live on?
Counterpoint: Get bent. DefundCBC Opinion
Everyone needs to fly private like Trudeau. He's leading by example. Save the planet.
Better transportation? Like what? We gonna start a dragon breeding program? Maybe some unicorns, too while we're at it? None of this is based in reality. What you actually mean is: ' Peasants stay home. Only your overlords are allowed such luxuries.'
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 Every time I need a good laugh I am going to read this. Absolutely ridiculous!
How about we ban private jets? That will certainly help, and there are very convenient options! Of course this will never happen. Among other reasons Canada builds some of the most popular…and they’re based in Quebec.
Let's discourage unnecessary business travel first.
We don't accept your ECOLOGICAL PROPAGANDA!
this is for the peasants, not for the elite of course.
You just go ahead and do it. Oh right your a hypocrite like your employer JustinTrudeau
When those 'better' options exist, then we can talk. Until then, I'm flying as often and to wherever I please.
No coverage from the SLEAZE BC of the riots in France. This is what happens when socialists spend their way to oblivion.
Better transportation? Like what? We gonna start a dragon breeding program? Maybe some unicorns, too while we're at it? None of this is based in reality. What you actually mean is: ' Peasants stay home. Only your overlords are allowed such luxuries.
How will all of those millions of future Liberal voters, I mean immigrants that the Liberals insist we need even though we don't have enough housing or medical services for, come to Canada?
The Sleaze BC at it again pumping BS. Maybe they can ask their commander why he has a carbon footprint larger then all PM’s combined. 20 minute flights for a photo op while the jets idle on the runways. Go away.
Ok let's go back to taking 2 months to cross the Atlantic. Horse and buggy from Ontario to Nova Scotia. Bloody brilliant.
Sometimes it's prudent to keep your opinions to yourself and let the rest of us go on with living.
20yrs ago George Monbiot spelt out a realistic method for regulating individual air travel/pollution. We need regs sooner than later. Esp on private planes and yachts.
Have you told JustinTrudeau this?
Make sure and send plenty of reporters on all expense paid assignments to cover our jet setting PM as he flies around the world to conferences to discuss this issue.
Tell your Prime Minister..aka Sugar Daddy
Make me
I seldom fly…so im ok with it when I do, and actually look forward to it. Maybe Ill skip a hot shower every once in a while and ill walk to the corner store to do my bit..
And you vill eat zee bugs
What do you suggest. I’m all for teleportation, but until it’s here, Air travel is the only viable option for off continent travel.
'In my younger life, I've had many chances to fly to other countries, immerse myself in other cultures, and recognise that there are other ways to live. That kind of travel is an invaluable, life-enriching experience.' - A Clown, 2023.
People get really offended by the idea of cutting back This isn’t a commentary on your lifestyle, it’s a plea to start reducing a huge source of pollution
Give us all a break and let us know when the politicians stop flying 24/7.
Bring back fuel efficient low carbon footprint fast transoceanic passenger ships and high speed rail.
Unless you are a member of the ruling class, then take all the private jet trips you wish. They do not want you to have any semblance of a lifestyle other than subservient. The so-called 'budget' will increase air travel costs for just this purpose & here's corp media in lockstep
Enough with propaganda.
Tell that to your damn Trudeau.
When the Elites give up their Carbon Spewing Jets and Yatchs maybe then we'll consider it
Right if you are filthy Rich and have zero time constraints.
JustinTrudeau first
The CBC employs mental midgets and is paid for by our taxes.
😂😂😂 complete CBC 🐂💩 as usual and besides your leader doesn’t believe in it either
Trudeau sand our Environment minister fly around the world frequently on gigantic jets, CBC are you really this blind.
People don’t care and don’t listen
Propaganda.
What?! What other option is there for overseas travel if not airplanes? Are we going to move back to 1912 and take a ship there? 🤦🏼♀️ This is getting beyond ridiculous. Meanwhile China, India and Russia are going to continue to be the biggest world polluters.
Bring back the blimps!
Hi I'm an immigrant, my whole family is overseas so I'm not going to stop traveling. Just not gonna happen.
Commercial flights are the *public transportation* of the skies. Time for the hypocrite woke jet-set to give up those private gas guzzlers first but don't hold your breath.
Hashahhaahahahahahh
Better not write a comment on CBC...it will get deactivated...unless its from Russian bots.
Ill stop flying when they start doing the global climate summits online, until then kiss my ass.
Perpetual SCAM.
