Personally, I'm all for developing a hard heart.

For what it's worth it'll only get easier for you over time.

The future looks very dark alright. Good luck with it.

I said now watch what you say they'll be calling you a radical,
a liberal, oh fanatical criminal

The moreon Liberals are blaming evil sky fairies they believe in rather than take responsibility for how poorly they are doing.

As Democrat and Liberal governments fall, Republicans and Conservatives come to the rescue.

You are hands down the most uneducated and blatantly partisan hack imaginable!

I accept your surrender :P

If you had any idea how desperate you sound and how childish you would never be able to show your face in public again due to the embarrassment.

I'm not saying I'm particularly smart. But I'm definitely smarter than you. I'm not claiming to be particularly educated. But I'm definitely vastly more educated than you. And while i lean to the right i'm NOTHING like the cult like subservience to the left and it's political ideals you represent. 

And the fact i'm smarter, better educated and less partisan is what allows me to tear your partisan hack arguments apart, and THAT is what makes you angry. 
 

Just make better arguments and you won't have to go crying on the internet about how mean people are to you anymore. Simple!

I'll surrender when you stop sending me emojis with your tongue hanging out...  I'll even try to say you're smart and non-partisan.

It doesn't but, considering New Brunswick will not allow fracking to get the gas out and Quebec will not allow pipelines through...it is the only way to get natural gas.

Carney could order one built through Quebec. He has the power.

Quite true. And a natural gas pipeline is a hell of a lot easier to sell than Bitumen. I think even Quebec would have a bit of a tough time arguing why they can't possibly consider that.

Yeah....that has been debated and dropped for 50 years...by every government in power.

NB will not allow fracking either.

Provinces have lots of power.

I'm curious why you gave a downvote to CdnFox's post about Canada being the only country in the G7 to have a contracting economy. He was stating a fact and provided a link to an article which got the figures from StatsCan.

Carney keeps using the excuse that 'he just got here' but that's not really true since he's been heavily involved with the Liberals since 2020.

In other news: 

How the Liberals broke Canada’s asylum system

The government fast-tracked refugees, with very little vetting, from the most dangerous places on Earth
Immigration officials for years have been mass-approving refugee applications from some of the most dangerous countries in the world by simply rubber-stamping paperwork without an in-person hearing. Untold numbers of fraudsters, terrorists and criminals now have protected person status in Canada, giving them access to generous state benefits and a much higher bar to deportation if convicted of a crime.
This cannot be blamed on Poilievre.

Beware the Brookfield industrial complex...

There is always more to a story beyond the headlines.

"Canada's economy shrank at the end of 2025 (by 0.2% in Q4), making it the only G7 nation to experience a contraction instead of growth during that period"

but

"while several nations globally face economic difficulties, Canada is unique among developed (G7/OECD) countries for the specific combination of population-driven overall growth with a rapid, sustained decline in per-person wealth"

And

We have for so long depended almost exclusively on the US for our economic stability (our own fault) ...it is now over and that has and will cause us growth problems till  the agreements that have been made can come into effect. We fall because we do not make anything...we have turned ourselves into consumers...hence, no GDP gain.

We have made no progress with the US since Fords advertisement and Trump closed the door so, here we sit.

Carney travelling the world trying to make connections and deals will hopefully be fruitful. But, until we start to produce...we will not increase GDP.

Oh and I do not and can blame this on PP...no one can as he has never been in a position of power or government.  I listened to his speech this past week and while Carney insinuated many things about the US and Trump, he never named him. Polievere did, many times....we will see how that plays in orangemans mind :)

Carney deliberately ruined the chances of a pipeline. While he was pretending to suck up to the oil industry he actually did everything he could to tell them to f off

He left the tanker band in place. Nobody is building a pipeline to nowhere. If you can't ship the oil when it gets to the coast there's not much point in building the thing.

He left the anti pipeline laws in place. So nobody's interested in building a pipeline.

He deliberately infuriated the first nations and the BC government so that they would be against it and then announced that they had vetoes

Carney's defining trait is dishonesty he says one thing and then deliberately does another

If there was interest...the tanker ban can be removed with a stroke of the pen.

Carney removed all requirements and he did not pi$$ anyone off...he said, you want it, you build it.

Until there is someone interested in building it and until Alberta finds partners and BC and the indigenous agree...it is dead on the road. The indigenous always had vetoes on what is built on their land.

And as far as Quebec...well, that is anyone guess.

Why is there no piling to the West Coast"

AI Overview
 
There is no agreement on a new West Coast pipeline due to a lack of commercial viability, massive logistical/topographical challenges in British Columbia, and deep-seated opposition regarding environmental risks to sensitive ecosystems, including risks to salmon-bearing rivers
. Furthermore, significant opposition from various Indigenous groups and the BC government regarding lack of consultation and potential tanker spills complicates the project. 
Key reasons for the stalemate as of early 2026 include:
  • No Commercial Proponent: No private company has stepped forward to build a new pipeline, suggesting it does not make financial sense given the high costs of construction and long-term oil demand trends.
  • Environmental Concerns: The potential for a major oil spill in B.C.'s northern coastal waters, which could affect salmon habitats and the Great Bear Sea, remains a primary obstacle.
  • Indigenous Opposition: Many B.C. First Nations oppose a new pipeline and argue that recent, high-level agreements (such as the November 2025 Memorandum of Understanding between Ottawa and Alberta) lack proper consultation and disregard their rights.
  • Logistical Hurdles: Former B.C. routes, such as Kitimat, have been ruled out by Alberta due to complex terrain, while the Trans Mountain experience highlighted immense costs, delays, and opposition.
  • Political Conflict: There is a sharp division between the Alberta government, which is pushing for more capacity, and the BC government, which has expressed serious environmental and, specifically, concerns regarding the potential for an "energy vampire" project that distracts from other priorities.

That is not the information I have. AFAIK all the rules are still in place, and Carney has made it clear that unless all the well bribed little native village mayors as well as the BC NDP agree, then there will be no pipeline.

No one wants to get into the multi-year struggle for approval of a pipeline that will likely never be allowed. Enbridge invested $600 million in the Northern Gateway pipeline only to have the government cancel it.

Nobody believes he would. So they spend millions and millions of dollars and then he finds a reason not to do it.

Big industry thinks he's lying. Take the hint.

If he was serious he would have done it. They basically said yank the tanker bad and we'll talk and he didn't

Carney didn't remove a single requirements just to be clear. And he pissed everybody off. There's a million stories about the first nations and the premier of British Columbia being furious

There will never be somebody interested in building it as long as he is basically standing there saying I refuse to change the regulations to make it possible

Nobody's going to spend the millions of dollars to do the research when he says well show us what you're thinking and then maybe possibly maybe I'll think about possibly lifting it

He's done absolutely everything you can to frustrate any new pipelines. And that is the simple truth

AI Overview
 
Based on reports from late 2025 and early 2026, Prime Minister Mark Carney has taken steps to adjust federal regulations to facilitate the construction of a new oil pipeline from Alberta to the West Coast
. 
Key Details But Not All of the Changes:
  • Memorandum of Understanding (MOU): In November 2025, Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith signed an agreement to enable the export of oil through a deepsea port to Asian markets.
  • Regulatory Adjustments: The deal includes potential changes to the Oil Tanker Moratorium Act (which bans tanker traffic on the B.C. North Coast) to allow the pipeline to proceed.
  • Emissions and Rules: The agreement commits to rolling back or adjusting federal regulations, including a planned emissions cap on the oil and gas sector and clean electricity regulations, in exchange for Alberta accelerating its carbon capture and storage projects and raising its industrial carbon tax.
  • Purpose: The initiative aims to move 1 million barrels of bitumen a day to Asia, with a focus on lowering the carbon intensity of the production. 
This policy shift marked a significant change from previous federal approaches, drawing both support from the industry and criticism from environmental groups
 
Yes, Northern Gateway was cancelled. The cancellation was part of a package of decisions where the government formally halted Northern Gateway while approving the Trans Mountain expansion and Enbridge's Line
