After $3 Billion Spent, Keystone XL Can’t Get Oil Companies to Sign On

Keystone XL is facing a new challenge: The oil producers and refiners the pipeline was originally meant to serve aren’t interested in it anymore.

After 10 years of news on the matter, ive learned not to put much weight on any 1 article.

After 4 years on this forum, I've learned not to put much weight on anything coming from Mentalfloss

After what happened last week, I've learned not to put much weight on sidewalk gratings.

Grating gave, sprained ankle, cut up my shin some. Not exactly an epic war story.

Hope you get better soon.

Can you sue the city?

I could, but my health care is free, and being a lawyer, my pain and suffering'd probably get a round of applause rather than a sigh of sympathy from a typical jury.

Appreciate the kind wishes.

US tribunal decisions can be just as prejudicially influenced as in Canada?! Say it ain't so!

Won't be coming West now that the BC government is probably going to be ruined by the unholy alliance between the socialists and anti everything crowd.

Why don't heavy oil refineries on the Gulf Coast want Canadian Blend over Orinoco Heavy from Venezuela?

The Orinoco River Basin is worth less than Canadian farm fields?

Begin with the harm principle.

You've been saying that for 10 years.
