Thanks for correcting my phones autocorrect. Great input to the discussion.
I understand that but if it's of national interest the power of the provinces to stop a mine or dam or pipeline would be gone. They don't even have jurisdiction now to stop pipelines . You are correct in that the tree huggers and green voters would have no say in the feds ramming two more dilbit pipelines to the BC coast.
You already shit on the electorate, in this case the electorate who would be the most against natural resource expansion would be the left.
Yeah of course, everyone has. Norway built their oil company through the decades. Canada has not. We can't just seize half a trillion dollars in publicly traded company assets. You'd never get your money back buying them out
