maybe the regulator can get around to doing something about all the raw sewage that BC dumps in the ocean.... Billions of litres a month and counting
I hate to see Cliff's heartbroken but it's no biggie, it does not stop construction. It's not like it's a vacuum cleaner hose that only assembles one direction.

Maybe Cliff can tell us why inbound tankers to Burnaby are safer than outbound?

It confuses me when left coasters cheer a tanker bringing oil from offshore rigs in NL thru Panama and gas drops a dime to $1.42L but don't see the benefit of a pipe delivering for pennies on the dollar compared to inbound tankers.

Maybe the tankers are blessed by Panamanian Injuns and it's all good?

... And, they are those new fangled ones that carry carbon-free hydrocarbons.

I also hear that the gubmint of Cannuckistan legislated that they are prohibited from running aground or leaking any oil into the St Larry and Great lakes, so we don't have to worry about an Exxon Valdez kinda event.... It's Fed law so we know it will never happen

Cannuckistan is full of lightweight losers.

If they ever got into it with Sixpakistan they'd be royally f-cked.

Yes all those wonderful green activists in Victoria keep voting against secondary treatment and continue to dump their sewage into Jaun De Fuca .Green is good in the wallet is their mantra .

I think you're a few years out of date.

I worked on the CPR one summer, many years ago. I have to admit, I haven't been paying attention. I'm gobsmacked that they tore up that line through Sudbury. Someday, our descendants will have to lay those tracks again to save energy.

It is algae blooms that are "the lungs of the planet" not the Amazon so it's all good.

turdOWEis the biggest cause of the economic problems. He is afraid to stand up to Quebec. Just like the liberal losers before him.


I curious to see what the National debt is going to look like come budget day! I know he was predicting $30 billion..................I'll bet it's closer to 60. Of course he'll use the "new Math". :) :)

In a very subtle way! I suppose one is just as bad as the other as the debt is merely composed of a series of deficits...............it all means money owed! Perhaps someone can enlighten me on the good points about it. :) :)

We still owe money that our grandfathers spent. Our national debt right now is about $1.4 TRILLION
