The Terminator has become the Environator, or so it seems. The governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger, visited Ontario this week to talk trade and care for the earth. Arnie still smokes cigars and drives a Hummer (several, in fact) but under his leadership the state has taken a number of progressive steps to make the smoggy air of California cleaner. The population of California exceeds that of all of Canada and folk there love their cars, so something decisive needed to be done.
Schwarzenegger is a Republican, a member of a party that believes in free enterprise and minimal government interference. It's good to see that the state has come to realize that taking care of the environment is good for health and good for business.
Hasta la vista Governor. I think God would appreciate it if you scrapped the Hummers.
