      Zing!

      Yes, no longer drilling for oil will solve our energy problems and fix global warming...very intelligent.

        When he said "oil is evil" I don't think he was saying "oil is an evil wizard that will make your children disappear and turn you into a hamster".

            It's the only definition of magic that I'm aware of. Why does the Harry Potter world even have money? Who knows. Well, there's also the "magic" where you do some stupid trick based on an optical illusion and try to make it look like magic.

              Who said don't drill anything at all?

              This is a Canadian politics thread, we are discussing the pertinence of building a NEW PIPELINE.

                It's either you build a pipeline or we ship it via rail and truck. Take your pick.

                    There is no question that a pipeline will be built. Right now the delay is just that NIMBYs in Nebraska want the route changed. It was hilarious listening to Fox News blame Obama claiming he was obstructing it (not true) and then claiming Obama had "taken away between 100,000 to 200,000 new jobs!" CNN interviewed the pipeline company and they said it when completed they'd have around 200 full time employees working the pipeline and during construction between 10,000-20,000. Yes, those are still jobs and we want them but Fox literally just made **** up and one interview with the pipeline company would have gotten the real answer. Fox is just full of ****.

                      The contentious project had threatened to become a political trap for President Barack Obama, who risked angering environmental supporters if he approved the pipeline. Some liberal donors also threatened to cut off contributions to Obama’s re-election campaign if the pipeline was approved.




                      I'm sure it's just a coincidence that the State Department has delayed its decision on the Keystone XL pipeline until after the presidential election, even though TransCanada thinks they could have a new Nebraska route approved in six to nine months.

                        The US is basically telling Canada to stop even trying to deal with the USA for future oil deals. The fastest growing market -- and soon to be largest market -- is Asia.

                        With these delays, they're starting to look at building another massive pipeline to the BC coast for shipment to China.

                          Who cares? Oil is fungible.

                            Yeah, Canadian threats to sell to China instead are completely empty.

                              How do you figure they're empty?

                              Do you know how many billions of dollars PetroChina has sunk into Alberta in the past two years?

                              When those projects come online in 5 years, they're going to want to get it to China somehow.

                                You can sell all the oil you want to China. It lowers the price America pays for oil just the same as oil sold directly to America.
