Aren't you comparing apples with watermelons here cliffy Norway own, drills, develops, and sells their own oil in so keeping there royalties and profits. Where here the provinces own the resources and set the royalties and the Feds. profit off taxes.

RCMP arrest pipeline protesters at Kinder Morgan site in Burnaby
Burnaby RCMP began arresting protesters on Saturday for violating the terms of an injunction ordering people to stay at least five metres from sites where work has begun in Burnaby on the Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion.
Some 28 demonstrators were being arrested after they blocked Kinder Morgan’s tank farm front gate for hours, according to a news release from the protesters Saturday.
Police confirmed the number in a news release Saturday night, saying “a number of demonstrators breached a court ordered injunction which stated that they could not obstruct, impede or otherwise prevent access to Trans Mountain Facilities.”
Each of the demonstrators has since been released, police said, and all will appear in court in the coming weeks.
Amina Moustaqim-Barrette, who spoke on behalf of a coalition of demonstrators under the banner Protect the Inlet, said each protester was ready to be arrested to send a clear message against Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project.
“The community isn’t going to lay down and just accept that this pipeline is going to be built,” she said. “They’re going to show their opposition very loudly and very purposefully.”
Twenty-eight demonstrators began blocking the entrance to Kinder Morgan’s work site at about 10 a.m. PT Saturday. Four hours later, some of the protesters tied themselves to the gate using zip ties, Moustaqim-Barrette said.
Burnaby RCMP moved in soon after, reading out the B.C. Supreme Court injunction granted Thursday to Kinder Morgan, she said.
Moustaqim-Barrette said all 28 demonstrators had been arrested by Saturday evening after what she described as a “very peaceful” demonstration.

Thousands and thousands more tax payer dollars spent in order to help Kinder Morgan.
Think we'll get a "Thank You"?
The big irony is that once these tards get processed through the system, they might have real trouble heading down to Bellingham to gas up each week.
The irony is palpable
Stephen Hawking: Greed And Stupidity Are What Will End The Human Race
Physicist Stephen Hawking says pollution coupled with human greed and stupidity are still the biggest threats to humans.
In an appearance on the BBC, Stephen Hawking dived into the science and technology that humans will need if the species hopes to abandon Earth prior to a likely cataclysm in the not-so-distant future.
Hawkings remained convinced that the human race must find a “Planet B” in the next 100 years since it was diminishing the Earth’s resources faster than it can replace them.
Mr. Hawking blames human greed and stupidity for the coming human extinction.
“We certainly have not become less greedy or less stupid,” Hawking told Larry King last year.
“The population has grown by half a billion since our last meeting [six years prior], with no end in sight. At this rate, it will be eleven billion by 2100.”

This pipeline is a bigger boondoggle than the gas plant scandal.
What a waste of tax dollars. :lol:
