j44 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Apparently Ms. Ashton feels she ,"looks just like Buddy Holly..." And I agree that she's terrible at answering questions... I watched her on P&P last week and when Evan Solomon asked her about the seemingly untenable position of jobs in refining raw bitumen and not allowing refineries to be built in the oil sands,she did the tip toe tap dance... I saw that interview. She was downright terrible. And some of the questions seemed softball. Also, Singh used his question on Ashton too?

Yes--- now we get the secondhand pollution blowing back across the border but even if an oil company set up a refinery here (with a billion or 2 in govt aid, they would get it working, dismantle it & ship it all down to Louisiana where people work for 8 bux an hour OR further south where people work for 8 bux a day.
