MAGA!
Senior Judge Edward Leavy is a judge appointed by President Ronald Reagan.
Big BUMP!!!!
More imports from Canada to increase our trade deficit.
Haven’t been following closely but this seems like a big deal.
The US exports oil as well. Not only that, some of that oil from Canada would probably have made it into the US anyway, so this is sort of a push > IMO.

Maybe, imports from Canada might be reducing our imports from less friendly countries.
In any event it's energy which is a key component of the economy.
Excellent! Now get it built. Fast! Theres been too much delay already.
It means jobs, not only on the pipeline but refinery jobs on TX gulf.
It doesn’t hurt to have access to more strategic assets.
If we import more oil from Canada, it essentially makes it more likely we can export more oil than we are now.
I think the pipeline is a good thing. It’s a resource in our neighborhood.
There may come a time when during a conflict, petroleum might become a more scarce commodity. I like at it as a safety valve, and that’s a good thing.
I agree and believe a good portion of this will be exported.

I’d like to blame auto correct on that one. Smile...
Damned auto correct, it just a pain. :^)
Yeah, but it saves my ass too.
It’s a mixed blessing to be sure, and this one was on me. Auto correct wasn’t involved.
Still, when it does screw up, it is a pain.
More crude from Canada to increase our refinery business and GDP.
There. Fixed it.
New permit, new round of court challenges coming. There are plenty of Øbama judges out there to throw a spanner in the works. Øbama judges, CJ Roberts; as predictable as the rain. This was but a technicality.
Import it, export it, drill here, drill there, on a boat, in a truck, via rail, or piping along, the more the better. Anything that increases supply and lowers the shipping costs of oil is a great thing for the US.
increase our refinery business...
IIRC BP spent billions to prepare the Whiting In. site for tar sands crude.
The problem now is a skilled labor shortage for pipeline crews.
I met a pipeline welder that made over $200,000 (gross) !!!! Yes many, many hours.
