Who would be stupid enough to have bought the trans mountain pipeline?

You do realize more crude will now flow to port now rather than finished product for BC consumers? Gas is going to skyrocket in your market.

Looks like it's already happening in Comox. The two stations with the lowest prices truck their fuel in from Saskatchewan.
Chevron is Parkland BBY and Shell Washington and both reliant of TMPL pipeline "batches".

I know, right? It's like buying the five-gallon bucket of mustard at Costco!

Who needs five f*cking gallons of mustard?

Who needs a whole damn pipeline? Coupla miles is plenty.

Ya know the guy who bought the whole thing fell for the "volume discount" bullshit.

Here we are stuck with the $4.5 billion 65 year old pipeline used for a product nobody wants.

And we're going to spend another $10 billion expanding it?

Only the Canadian federal government could get fleeced like that.

Hey, don't feel bad. You won't be the first man to spend a lot of money trying to expand his pipeline, hoping it'd make a difference.

That's $15 billion we could use saving Canadians from coronavirus instead of trying to save a dying industry from reality.

You are relying on it.
