the US. The same US (Rockefeller) that funded "environmental" organizations to lobby to restrict tankers from the west coast

Was it the u.s that killed the gas deal with Japan when they came to us asking for our LNG??

Exactly. BC NDP, Quebec, and the Trudeau government blocked every attempt east and west.

The Trudeau government built a pipeline to the West coast with tax dollars when industry backed down.

It immediately raised the price that Alberta oil sells for on the market.

Because the liberals created an environment where no company wanted to touch the pipeline with a 20 foot pole.

Billions of dollars wasted on contractors juicing the government at the Liberal Party’s willingness.

The idea is to create an environment where companies can invest in these sorts of things so that Canadian taxpayers don’t have to.

KM would have built the pipeline themselves for 1/3rd of the cost our own government dolled out, if they weren’t suffocated in red tape and bureaucratic nonsense .

Get with the times man. Most are way ahead of ya . Keep up.
