The Trans Mountain oil pipeline expansion (TMX) was meant to shrink the discount on Canadian oil versus U.S. crude but three months in the differential is wider than when commercial operations on the project started.

Blow it up

That would be an ecological disaster.

Less than it is now

No. Massive crude oil spilled into the watersheds of BC and Alberta would be far worse. The fact that this needs explaining to you is telling of your actual concern for the environment.

Guess you need to review the IPCC reports

No, it would be an ecological and humanitarian disaster.

While Alberta’s ecosystem is barely hanging on thanks to decades of de-facto oil industry government. BCs is struggling from climate change.

Then you have to thank Pierre Pollievre and Harper for the pipeline route that passes through at least one municipal watershed.

But not Nestle’s watershed. They changed the route for Nestle.

And if we had spent the tens of billions on healthcare or housing we would have created as many or more jobs and also had something useful to show for it.

“We increased supply! That makes prices go up, right?”

No see we increased the markets its available to instead of relying on the worlds largest oil producer bying it we can ship it around the world competing with all the other oil producers… (this is the argument they gave not me)
