where do they want the pipelines built? I am going to guess not on their own land but on someone else's.


========================================================================================================


POOR HOID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Blinkered and blinded and stupid as usual!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


A number of the natives doing the loudest protesting are ones whose reserves ARE FAR AWAY from the pipeline route!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


So why are they protesting??????????????????


Because THEY WANT ON TO THE GRAVY TRAIN AS WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Natives "Protesting" against Kinder Morgan are engaged in blackmail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Natives benefit from cheap oil as much as anybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



But natives also benefit from black mailing govt - which is what they are doing at every opportunity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Natives dont really give a hoot about the pipeline- since a good many of them expect to GET JOBS either helping build the or helping maintain the pipeline in future!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Its all just drunken goofs with nothing better to do- making noise in hope of getting more cash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And LIE-berals are playing along because the 2019 election is coming and LIE-berals are AFRAID of public anger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a hard time comprehending that! Has the demand for oil decreased? Is the quota of highway miles abating? Has a substitute for oil been invented? If you add two and two together you'll quickly realize that is bullshit and quit submitting silly posts. :)


========================================================================================================


The current problem with oil is a free market concept - that LIE-berals are not familiar with!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The current problem with oil is OVER SUPPLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Oil is now being pumped out of the ground faster than we can use it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This over supply results in LOWER PRICES -according to free market theories that LIE-berals want to render OBSOLETE!!!!!!!!!!!!


And as Alberta oil is located in rather isolated regions of North America - not easily reached by oil tankers - it is therefore the first oil patch to suffer a slow down in sales!!!!!!!!!!


It is for this reason that NDPers WANTED that Kinder Morgan pipeline- so they could sell their oil to foreigners!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Given the choice between buying Russian oil- with that revenue being used to buy WEAPONS to threaten Russian neighbours with!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Or buying Alberat oil- and that revenue will be used to pay the debts of the LIE-beral/NDP welfare state!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Most foreigners would prefer to buy from Canada!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Such a choice is a positive move that will LIMIT RUSSIAN AGGRESSION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


But Our idiot Boy abd his loser LIE-berals are aspiring dictators in the Soviet model so they are killing the Alberta oil patch!!!!!!!!!!


LIE-beral lust for power has twisted their thoughts so completely they would rather see Europe over run by Russians than give in and let Alberta prosper by selling its oil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Just so long as LIE-berals can cling to power- then the world is satisfactory to GRAVY GRABBING LIE-beral dictators!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would that be close to the ratio of the Indian population in Canada?
