I think all this drilling is great for the Canadian economy..

However, where is all the money going? Ontario is in worse shape than Greece, can this not be corrected immediately??

Norway and many other countries have developed hydrogen highways.. Germany is strong on environmental concerns. Why can't Canada have a balance, while we benifit from our geographical position on the planet and our abundance of resources, also look to the future by building hydrogen highways and constructing more wind farms and alternative energy..

There should be a balance in development..

...anyone?

While Ontario is unlikely to face the same level of stress as Greece
Man Cave? Here is some facts that you might not be aware of Ontario has half of Canada's population and Quebec has almost the other half with the rest of the population scattered within the other provinces. Oil and money rich Alberta has a little more than 2 million people out of 30 million people in Canada. Ontario and Quebec has future manufacturing potential so they will recover faster than Greece ever will.

I've been expecting that for some time now. With all the NIMBYs and NOPES in BC we can expect to see a lot of jobs pass us by yet again and the same whiners will then complain about how we are giving away our future blah blah la la la.......

Piping refined products. That's funny.

Why not? Its a fluid.

Your figures are a little skewed!
