Canada faces an uphill battle to recoup the roughly C$35 billion ($25.74 billion) in taxpayers' money it has sunk into the Trans Mountain oil pipeline, as uncertainty over shipping tolls and a limited pool of buyers cloud the asset's unique strategic value.

Of course it will!!!

We’re at a point in history where we will be reducing our dependence of oil!!

We signed the fucking Paris agreement on climate action! What the fuck were they expecting??

Now Poilievre is going to complain about Trudeau financing the pipeline and they’ll eat it all up even though the pipeline is what they wanted in the first place.

Yep. He only did it to make them happy.

We really should learn that’s impossible.

I always thought of it as a welfare program for the oil pipeline workers.

All done for Alberta which still complains about literally fucking everything

Trudeau bought this to please Alberta and Manitoba, but he didnt squeeze a single vote out of it. Also, wasn’t ir 38 billions overall?
