What are the chances Alberta will get a new pipeline?
- Thread starter mentalfloss
- Start date
Here is Trudeau announcing his approval.
"Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced the decision in Ottawa today, saying the project would give "much needed new hope" to thousands in Alberta and provide $4.5 billion in federal and provincial government revenue."
Good for Alberta.
Good for Oil companies.
Good for feds.
Absolutely useless to BC which will bear the burden of all spills and mishaps.
Thank you - but no thank you

There is lots of benefit to BC. Real jobs for one.Get a big enough pipe or more of them and we could have a dozen refineries on the coast. That is a lot of jobs and taxes for all your freebees.
WHo besides a flatlander would be stupid enough to put a tanker exclusion zone around a port city?
It will create very few jobs while directly threatening tens of thousands of current and future jobs in fishing, aquaculture and tourism.
You will never build another refinery in BC, it is simply impossible to do.
THat is precious little in return for risking basically everything we have.
And for what?
SO some private oil companies and a private pipeline company can make billions of dollars in profits?
**** you and **** them - it ain't happening.
Nine of the ten biggest solar panel makers are in china.....
I would rather keep the money in Canada

No. The answer is for government to quit using gas as a cash cow to milk. That alone would cut the price at the pump by about $.40/l
Coal plants are good for the BC economy. We have several hundred years with to burn.
ROFLMAO.Seriously dude you gotta get some better reading material.
I wonder if his effeminate looks are the cause of his rage
Is there anything more effeminate looking than Putz?
I just watched quite a commentary on C.B.C. news. What coal the U.S. the U.K. and Canada use isn't even a flash in the pan when compared with China's projected use for years to come. Apparently China is making a concerted effort to reduce use, but it's going to take many years before it's enough to be noticeable. With their huge reserves at a cheap price, other sources of energy use are very prohibitive!
Between KXL and TMPL over 406,000 tonnes of steel will be cooked, rolled and made into pipe in Regina.
thank you for that 5 year old prediction (for a different pipeline)

In the end, it doesn't matter what Burnaby or the envirotards think or want.
The Feds will decide this without needing their implicit approvals

If that was the case the thing would have been done under Harper.
But if it makes you happy to believe it by all means.
