Political parties aren't "responsable" for building or shutting down refineries: private corporations are. The closes thing to an exception would be when PetroCan was a crown corporation. Now politics do have a part in permitting, taxation (including incentives and exemptions) and emission laws, and can block developments but the role is limited.

Oh but you're missing an opportunity that only comes along ten times a day to jump on the Libtards and/or Neocons. C'mon now, everybody has to pick, pick, pick a side. :roll:

Pierre Elliot Trudeau built Petro Canada and it's refineries.
conservative government shut them down by selling them off to the states.

Since the 1970s, the number of refineries in Canada has plummeted from 40 to 19, taking a big bite out of the direct refinery labour force,

Gee Ralph Goodale was a Conservative in 2004 when he announced (as Finance Minister to Paul Martin) that the feds would sell their share of Petro-Can by the end of that year? And here I thought old Ralphie was a Liberal...

ahh the lil retard with an internet , losses again to the superior mind.

Need we say more?

Petro Canada and Suncor merged and remain Canadian.

This guy is crazy.
Where have I said otherwise.
The point is about oil refineries and the destruction of by whom , and who benefited by it.

We export crude products to the states where they turn it into gas, and diesel and household fuels.
we end up paying more for gas in a country that is oil rich and at one time refined their own oil.

If you can't see the Fuc over your the crazy one.
The conservatives are avoiding this like the plague it is.

The people here are not stupid but loyal to their party.

They can't handle the truth and the fact they are used at the ballot box for purposes they don't want to fathom because it hurts.

I recall a company controlled by the liberal government called Dome petroleum. Cost the taxpayers billions with no return. Don't remember them having any refineries though.

There are several refineries that closed do in part to oppressive environmental rules brought in by liberalgovernments.

Several refineries were closed due to irresponsable environmental rules brought in by liberal governments. Same thing happened to many pulp mills.
