Oh Yes

You better believe it will:

Canada's climate stance likely to spark controversy
"Canada has already declared that it will not renew its Kyoto commitment "however acute the international pressure," Kent said during a speech hosted by the Economic Club of Canada in Toronto on Tuesday."
[---]
"'We will only support climate change agreements that are signed and ratified by all major emitters,' Kent said, making reference to the fact that developing nations had minimal obligations to reduce emissions under Kyoto and the U.S. had signed but not ratified the agreement."
[---]
"In response to questions from the audience, Kent reiterated the federal government's position against imposing a carbon tax in Canada such as the one passed by Australia's Senate on Tuesday. He added that the government also doesn't believe in systems that allow for the capping and trading of emissions "where so many countries have met their commitments by merely buying hot air from depressed Eastern European economies.""
And this guy used to be a journalist. It must have pained CBC to produce this article, but they can always rely on their commenters.

I guess this means the CAGW freaks have failed to convince the government that we're all doomed.
