Her handlers are ridiculous people

If any of our politicians give her the time of day, they should be fired

She’s a child who is being manipulated by special interests and idiotic attention seeking parents

It’s pathetic

May as well host Dr Oz and the Kardashians too. Makes about as much sense

Good. Glad she’s coming. Hopefully she is taught some facts. Doubtful.

I heard about this on the radio.
She's supposed to be touring Idaho, Montana, and then Alberta.
Who is paying for this trip?

There’s a lot of miles to cover in Idaho, Montana and Alberta. Is she walking or using hydrocarbons. Maybe the War room Kenney created should call her out.

What a joke. Nothing but a special interest puppet. Her handlers should be charged with child abuse.

Flying all over the world bussing from region to region, then preaching to us about carbon and emissions. Go back to school Greta!

The whole family was wearing Antifa T-shirts, and Soros finances Antifa. He also contributes financially to a group her handler is associated with.

Electric cars don't use hydrocarbons.

Arnie lent her a Tesla.

Not a fan, but to be fair, I don't think she flys.

Sad part is people believe that! They can’t comprehend that hydrocarbons go into making it and how much goes into the electricity to run it.

She can read from a prepared speech, but I highly doubt she is the writer.
I saw a short video where she was asked to comment on something and she was almost speechless; it was extremely telling that she is literally just a mouthpiece.
Apparently the 'sailboat' that got her to North America is worth $20 million (and I heard that it was shadowed by a motorboat).
In my view, she is essentially a 'child soldier' for the environmental movement; for sure, no one handed her an AK47, but regardless, the level of manipulation is absolutely perverse.

I like most would think back to when I was 16 and can't help but give her props for having absolutely anything on her mind that doesn't involve the opposite sex.

With that said I hope this can be an opportunity to show someone so blindsided by over the top rhetoric how advanced and efficient our energy industry is and how "green" it is relative to the rest of the world.

But I'm not holding my breath.

Kenney has a great way with words. I think he will make her handlers regret letting her have dinner with Kenney.

I don't listen to anyone that has no training, education or experience when it comes to making serious policy decisions about anything. Why in the world would anyone listen to a 16 year old kid with a spoon fed, lopsided opinion, no formal training and a desire to get as much free publicity, clicks and followers as possible.

Just one more attention seeking child. Go home, we don't need your ridiculous antics here. If Kenney gives her an audience he isn't as smart as I thought he is.

Her parents and handlers in my opinion should go to jail for exploiting a child with autism. They are focusing her as an ideological weapon in North America when Europe is hardly doing much for global warming and India and China are doing nothing.

They are manipulating a child to push their agenda. She screams she does not have a childhood...however her parents are not helping her have a childhood.

Alternatively if I want to hear a 16 year old scream at me I would just take my daughters cell phone away.

Excellent. Take Greta to IKEA. Stop for $3.00 breakfast. Then cruise Isles of IKEA. Discuss how her proposal will effect IKEA, and how those IKEA products arrive around the world. Then finish up with some pickled herring, and cheese. Then Send her on her way home.

This child needs to go away. She's been brainwashed by her climate doom parents. Who's paying for her jet setting all over North America lecturing adults on our carbon foot print? She's racked up more air miles and emitted more carbon in the last two months than I have in the last 10 years.

Whether we like it or not she has become an effective symbol of a movement that millions have signed on to ... a cause that is not going away ... so to downplay her influence or discredit her personally may not be an effective strategy. My bet is that wherever she ends up in Alberta, she will draw a crowd. It will be interesting to see if there will be a counter protest because of all the venues she has played, surely this province will be the toughest. Would be a pretty bad show to get out hustled by a 16yr old

My guess would be that 90% of the car has petroleum bi products in it, if not more. Again, just a guess.

Why would they even let her cross the boarder knowing she is coming her for the sole purpose on trashing us and spreading more misinformation?

We should give her a German style reception.
