Blame the market.

Pretty hilarious to see when the Liberals know more about how the economy works than the Conservatives.

But I guess this is what we get with the Trumptard revolution.

Isn't it funny how some of the places with the most problems are heavy oil producers?

Saudi Arabia
Venezuela
Russia
Nigeria

Your point being what?

Laughing at another countries 'problems' may tickle your fancy but I find no joy in knowing what the people - not the governments - of those countries are enduring.

Flossy rarely has a point, hell, he laughs at his own neighbours in his own province when they falter.

... No doubt he'd sell his grand mother for fire wood if he felt the need

I've never seen conbots so scared.

Governments come and go, mf and this one will be gone at the conclusion of the next election after which I expect to see a rekindled interest in companies wishing to build pipelines here in Canada.

If only they channelled their energy into something real, like global warming.
What 'global warming' aficionados fail to appreciate is the simple truth that the climate is changing and there is nothing that us humans can do to alter that. It is complete hubris to think otherwise. The climate has changed numerous times over many millennia. The spending of billions of dollars here in Canada under the guise of helping the climate is sheer lunacy. And what if we did indeed drop our emission by a large percentage? How are you going to keep the pollution that comes across our southern border at bay? Build a wall? Pollutants exist in our atmosphere. The same atmosphere that covers the entire planet. The only solution is to cover the entire country in a gigantic dome and good frickin' luck with that.

With oil revenue they could have upgraded the plate in Flosshole's head from paper to stainless steel.

In the mean time, God bless Royal Chinette.

If TCP can't make a profit then it should be shut down. Lac Megantic here we come.

Well, those trains full of crude won't be rolling through the GTA but they will be clickety-clacking right through urban Montreal on both main lines, now. I wonder if anyone mentioned that to the Quebecers?

Don't bet on that. Anything crossing the continent and remaining on Canadian rails has no choice but to go through GTA considering CN's line is gone from Capreol and CP's is severed beyond Mattawa

It's the long way around. The GTA is on branch lines only. It adds hundreds of miles to run down here.
