Canada pulls the plug on the U.S. Keystone Pipeline

- - - - - -

Completely false claim. The Keystone XL pipeline is still approved by the Canadian government and they want it approved by the US.

The Northern Gateway Pipeline is not a replacement for the Keystone XL. Both projects have been in the approval cycle for years. Both have commitments to move crude oil/bitumen/dilbit by companies.

This is not an either/or project replacement. It is an additional project and both need to be completed.

No matter what happens with the Keystone Pipeline, we can all thank odumbo for the high gas prices of today and the future. His policies have to be removed when/if we get a “real American” for POTUS.

Agree with what you have said, but some added info:

The pumps for Keystone were built by the Sulzer corporation and have been sitting in long term storage for some years now. It is my understanding that they are being 'reassigned' for other uses (not sure if it is this one or not). These pumps are a 48-52 week lead item. Meaning if the project is approved, that cycle would start over.
