Shipping LAV's to Saudi Arabia, and piping oil to the east cost, bad.

Buying Saudi oil and helping prop up that regime, good.

Progs are funny.

Creating more pipelines in Canada so that Saudis and OPEC drop the price even further and the free market supports them even more while no one purchases comparatively expensive Canadian oil.

Double plus good!


Ethical oil was a conbot pipe dream and won't actually happen in practice.

Re: Oil export pipelines: Will Canada ever build another?

You bitched when OPEC raised prices and bitched when they dropped them.

It's has nothing to do with oil or prices or Harper or OPEC.

You are just a bitch.

mentalbitch is you new name.

You're just upset but you should at least channel that anger into something productive.

Question...why would it be the Minister of Western Diversification's job to get a pipeline built?

Albertans already get 'fair share' of oil and gas royalties, panel concludes

O'Leary can stop panicking now.


Albertans already get 'fair share' of oil and gas royalties, panel concludes

After Alberta's NDP government criticized the royalty rates oil and gas companies were paying, a five month review of the system resulted in a recommendation that will not increase the government's revenue in the foreseeable future.

The review panel presented its findings this morning in Calgary, which concluded Alberta's rates are comparable to other jurisdictions.

"Success for Albertans only comes when the industry is successful. Success doesn't exist when one really wins and one really loses," said Dave Mowat, chair of the royalty review panel.

So, this means that the NDP were talking out of their a$$ when they criticised the previous government for not getting enough in royalties.
