Very little research at all into bitumen spills on the west coast.
I don't see how anyone could possibly object to a scientific study into it.
I don;t see how anyone can possibly ship that shit without definitive knowledge.

Bitumen Doesn't Float
Some diluted bitumen products will sink in fresh and brackish marine waters in less than 26hours following a tanker spill or accident at a marine terminal.
Bitumen floats.
Misleading the eco-apes.

Petroglyph, if you want to fukk up the environment, fukk up your own. Bitumen is being exported and has nothing to do with domestic use. Your argument is stupid, as usual. If is such great stuff, why are we not refining it here and using it? Because it is crap.
Yea remember that tanker crashing in Active Pass ? Hold is studying its effects still . When did that happen anyway ?
So you wouldn’t object to a refinery on the shores of Arrow Lake ?k
Trudeau promised yesterday a billion dollar world class spill response capability for the west coast.
But there is no current understanding of what bitumen will do here if spilled. SO its all talk and no action.
It will all be fine is not good enough.

No bitumen is being exported ya stupid, brain dead stoner.
He had no problem visiting a Rez that has its own oil company and wells that partnered up in a new refinery.
It should be producing Rye whiskey by the end of next year
(... as a fuel additive ...)
Canada doesn't need any more refining capacity. What we need is for retards like you to comprehend the fact that it's better to have western oil being refined in eastern refineries instead of supporting islamic terrorism by purchasing oil from shitholes like Saudi Arabia and Iran to be shipped to the East Coast.
Of course it floats and none is being piped or rail tanked to any shore anywhere.
Facts are facts.
How much longer will this be tolerated?
Lower Mainland drivers may be experiencing a bit of sticker shock this week as prices at the pump have climbed to an average of $1.479 per litre in most areas Tuesday.
"Vancouver has traditionally been subject to the highest prices for gasoline anywhere in North America and this certainly is the case today," said gas price analyst Dan McTeague.
McTeague, of Gasbuddy.com, says a rise in prices is not the norm for this time of year.
"This is an unusual January in that we rarely see prices move up. If anything, they move down," he said.
"But a combination of oil prices moving up several dollars a barrel, shortages in the U.S. West Coast where we draw in a lot of our gasoline supply ... all of these things are contributing to the much higher prices," McTeague said.
McTeague says one of the contributing factors to high prices in the region is that we don't produce enough gasoline in our own backyard.
"We have one small refinery, the Parkland Refinery over in Burnaby — 55,000 barrels a day, that's just not enough to meet the demands for the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island to boot," he said.
If you hate Trans Mountain you are a good egg to Trump and Evil Corp USA LLC
As for BC tourism and carbon tax, big losses ahead.
Summer could see even higher prices
McTeague says he expects prices to stay around $1.44 for the next few weeks before dropping mid-February to about $1.40.
But he is predicting that prices this summer could reach $1.50 or higher.
"In the meantime, it's more pain at the pumps and I suspect that many people will be making that trip across the border into Blaine, [Wash.]."
Until we band together and boycott 1 brand at a time for a month each.
That would be called a win-win.
With the bonus of having more pipeline capacity.
Then send that crap back east and keep it out of BC. You want it, you can have it.
There is no nu clear in BC.aside from the piddling amount in laboratories and cancer clinics.
So build a dozen or so refineries on the coast and just export refined products. Problem solved.
