They tell us that use of Canadian oil is part of the plan for US energy self sufficiency

I've have never seen a claim that imported oil creates US energy self sufficiency.

the plan is to use the USA and eminent domain so foreign corporations with ties to politicians, can use the USA as a conduit to China, then I strongly oppose seeing Americans having their land taken and devalued.

Those are not the only choices of options. The reality is it will deliver oil to American refineries for jobs in the US. It also means less oil imported from OPEC.

Are derailments a routine event or are trains carrying oil more susceptible?

I would say more routine than most folks realize when looking at all rail traffic.

Having oil on board make more news.
