Do you prefer those rolling pipelines down the Fraser Canyon ? Do you think stopping a safe efficient pipeline will curtail the demand and use of oil ?
Trans Mountain ‘pipeline is going to get built’: Trudeau dismisses B.C.’s bitumen ban
- Thread starter mentalfloss
- Start date
PS You do of course understand that the use of , and demand for petroleum based products is increasing yearly . As a matter of fact despite all the scares of global warming climate change and the increases in alternative energy sources we are not seeing any decrease in traditional energy usage .
Going by moonbeam logic we pretty much have no choice but go full bore on nuclear energy.
Fine by me.
Fine by me.
A new line to ship products nobody wants to non-existent customers that are already being serviced by other oil exporting nations while Eastern Canada buys it's oil needs from the KSA.
Clearly Canadians are fuking bonkers for the most part.

B.C. and First Nations oppose it, Alberta wants it badly – and after an ultimatum from a U.S. oil giant, Ottawa has bought it to build it themselves. The Trans Mountain pipeline expansion would bring billions in new revenue, but it would also mean an increase in coast-to-port tanker traffic, and with that, a risk of more oil spills. We follow a tanker as it threads the needle from Burnaby to the open ocean.

Scary shit. Too many variables, too much risk.

POOR STUPID CLIFFY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If he emerged from the trees once in a while....................................
he would know that tankers ROUTINELY run up and down St Lawrence River........................................
WITHOUT bumping into things!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is LIE-beral HYPOCRISY that is DESTROYING the LIE-beral party!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here is an article illustrating how far LIE-berals have strayed from supporting any standard Cdn values!! With some comments of my own in brackets):
60% of Canadians want tougher laws against birth tourism: Angus Reid Institute poll

Firstly- here is a nice little side bar: Saadi Gaddafi still owns a $1.55-million condo on the 40th-floor of this building in Toronto's Entertainment District.
Gaddafi condo: Redecorated at SNC’s expense…
(Oh- SNC LAVALIN PAID to redecorate the condo owned by the SON of the MURDEROUS Libyan dictator “DAFFY” Gaddafi?? Just how much skullduggery has Lavalin REALLY BEEN UP TO at OUR EXPENSE?????????????????????)
A new poll from the Angus Reid Institute says most Canadians feel the country's policy of birthright citizenship goes too far.
READ MORE: New numbers show more ‘birth tourism’ in Canada than thought
(More “birth tourism than we thought? That is just the usual LIE-beral solution to any problem - PRETEND it does not exist- until somebody rubs their nose in it- then LIE-berals can call their opponents “systemic racists”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
As the legislation stands, any baby born on Canadian soil is automatically granted citizenship, even if the parents are in the country only on a tourist visa.
(And WE KNOW LIE-berals would go BERSERK if a well know Nazi had ever tried to claim Cdn citizenship!! Can you IMAGINE the LIE-beral OUTRAGE if Donald Trump or Israeli Benjamin Netanyahu tried to claim Cdn citizenship???)
(And yet LIE-berals have NO PROBLEM accepting any goof from a third world pest hole as a Cdn citizen!! LIE-berals are so willing to give out Cdn citizenship- they are even willing to LET CONVICTED TERRORISTS WHO HATE US- KEEP their Cdn citizenship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
(LIE-berals INSULT AND CHEAPEN Cdn citizenship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
A poll by the Angus Reid Institute Thursday says 64 per cent of Canadians say that shouldn't be the case.
READ MORE: Study shows birth tourism much more prevalent in Canada than reported by StatCan
(We must recognize that LIE-berals are using unregulated birth tourism as a way to BUY VOTES!! People who have been judged unacceptable as Cdn citizens CAN still enter as tourists- temporarily- then overstay their welcome and then give birht in Cdn hospitals at our expense- secure in the knowledge that LIE-berals will aid them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
(It is bad that these people are treating us as suckers and it is WORSE that LIE-berals INSIST that the reason ouir health care is being rationed is because we are not paying enough taxes- even though the country has RECORD debt levels!!!!!!)
(The REAL LIE-beral insult is that the babies of birth tourists automatically get Cdn citizenship- simply because LIE-berals PROFIT from sucking up to third world ethnic groups- at OUR EXPENSE!! LIE-berals are so determined to BUY VOTES- they are willing to wait 20 years for the birth tourist baby to come back and claim Cdn citizen status -and vote LIE-beral !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
According to the poll, 60 per cent say Canada's citizenship laws need to change to discourage "birth tourism," where expecting parents deliberately come to Canada to give birth so their babies get citizenship.
(The ONLY REASON for “birth tourism” to exist is because the “tourists” KNOW the only way their family can get Cdn citizenship is by CHEATING!! The birth tourists are so unsuited to life in Canada that the only way for them to get in is to CHEAT- WITH LIE-beral CONNIVANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
(FAR TO MUCH of LIE-beral immigration policy is based on deceit and deception!! One has only to look at how carefully LIE-berals HIDE the true numbers of illegals who have come to Canada!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
(And one only has to look at how carefully LIE-berals HIDE the true ongoing cost to keep the illegals in Canada!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
(LIE-berals are also very careful NOT to let us know how many of their 60,000 Muslim refugees are actually self supporting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
(And one has only to look at how LITTLE information LIE-berals hand out regarding how many of the illegals have actually become fully self supporting!!!!!)
(We must recognize LIE-berals HAVE NO INTENTION of ever being candid about their Immigration policies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
(It is ONGOING LIE-beral DECEIT about their immigration and racial policies that are fueling Cdns anger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Even so, the poll says more Canadians think birthright citizenship is a good policy than a bad one.
(Oh yes- another highly selective LIE-beral poll - which sought out people likely to AGREE with LIE-beral policy!! This is the DIRTY SECRET behind LIE-beral love of the COSTLY LONG FORM CENSUS!! It tells them where to telephone to get “the right answers’ for their polls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
And the survey also found people over the age of 55 were more likely to say that birth tourism is a serious problem for Canada, than those under 35.
(Yes- MORE LIE-beral deceit!! LIE-berals have been “stacking the deck” for decades- seeking out immigrants from third world pest holes- meaning people who will have LOTS of children that old stock Cdns will have to PAY FOR- and then brain washing the kids at school to see only LIE-beral values!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
(It is JUST TOO BAD for LIE-berals that the kids graduate from school and get a good look at the real world- at which point the kids decide that LIE-beral values LOOK LIKE POISON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
(In spite of all the LIE-beral Fake News- LIE-berals are FAILING TO SELL their Sunny Ways as we head towards the election!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Those islands have been privately owned for decades. Can't remember the names of the homesteaders anymore but my father knew them.
The Smiths, the Smiths, the Smiths and the Smiths.
Funny, they all look exactly alike except for their different numbers of toes.
Only to you flatlanders. I do agree that the port facilities and refinies should be on the Island or North Coast where the shipping time is shorter.
The biggest problem with shipping out of vancouver is that any idiot with a computer and $45 can get a boat license without any practical knowledge at all.
It sort of works in the benign inside waterways of BC. Outside of the West shore of the Island is where the wheat separates from the chaff.
Can you cite any big spills from the US loading/unloading terminals to actually support your fears? How about from unloading facilities in Canada?
