    India: hey, I need coal to generate electricity.

    PotatoMuncher: Hey. Lemme teach all about potato-batteries. We got all the potatoes you need.

    India: I got potatoes. I need coal for my power plants as well as foundries.

    PotatoMuncher: We’ve got world’s best aluminum and steel. Produced with renewable energy.

    India: I don’t want to rely on you. I got power plants and furnaces. I want to produce my own. Sell coal.

    PotatoMuncher: I seek to minimize emissions. I know what’s best for everyone else. No coal for you.

    India: Were you dropped on your head? Or just an ignoramus elitist with a colonial worldview?

    PotatoMuncher: I got all organic, gmo free, pesticides free, fair market, 100% Canadian potatoes.

                               Boil em. Mash em. Stick em in a stew...
    

    India: Stick em where the poutine don’t shine.
