Oil to tidewater ...

Yesteryears strategy of getting permits first and then giving residents a PowerPoint presentation later frequently sucked firms into legal swamplands.

??

Both aboriginal and non-aboriginal communities across Canada weigh projects pros and consjobs, revenue, national economy, cultural concerns, the environmentand decide whats best for them. But respect and consultation go a long way.

It's true ... but it doesn't guarantee a pipeline.

Members of three Migmaq communities are facing off in court against Chaleur Terminals about its plan to ship 150,000 b/d of Albertan crude by rail to the Atlantic, via the New Brunswick port of Belledune.

Jacee , not everybody lives in a city. Where I live we don't have buses and taxis are expensive. I cant even get a pizza delivered. Oil consumption is going up and will for many yrs to come. What little we produce, why cut our throats when the developing countries are not even going to try and slow down.

Toronto, like a roach motel in the middle of a pretty living room.

It will happen. It has to if you want all your benefits of being Canadian. Fort Mac put billions into our coffers and pound for pound the most generous city in Canada. Does not say much of Vancouver or Toronto. One thing is for sure Fort Mac has shown what idiots the enviros are. Oil sands are our answer, since coal is the most evil. How about 900 earthquakes in Okalhoma,because of Obama the fracking king.

Well, interesting poll results in this article seem to indicate that maybe we will get some pipelines built under the compromise of carbon taxes.

If a believer demands that I, as a non-believer, observe his taboos in the public domain, he is not asking for my respect but for my submission. And that is incompatible with a secular democracy. Flemming Rose (Dutch journalist)

My biggest takeaway from economics is that the past wasn't as good as you remember, the present isn't as bad as you think, and the future will be better than you anticipate. Morgan Housel http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2016/01/14/things-im-pretty-sure-about.aspx
