It seems some here are forgetting what role the Governor of NE has played in the scenario. Essentially delaying the process in search of more guarantees of protection from spills. Following his objections, and after achieving a better deal from XL Dept of State got into the act with their “not before next year” stance.
I doubt Canada is going to sit on their oil until the idiots in the state dept get their act together.
You may be right on Canada not waiting, we’ll see soon.
The NE Gov was shouting out loud and clear against the pipeline but the State Dept basically ignored him and led everyone to believe they were going to approve it.
Then along comes the enviros and threaten Obama with their votes and everything changes all of a sudden. I may not have that right but that’s the way I saw it.
