I read a while back that if the Keystone pipeline was stopped, Canada was going to build a pipe line to the Pacific and ship the oil to China. So by Xiden’s actions, China gets the oil and the USA does not. Even though a bunch of American union workers get screwed by the deal.
My tag line applies here.
“Canada was going to build a pipe line to the Pacific and ship the oil to China. “
I think if it was politically possible for Canada to build the pipeline to their west coast, they would have done it. They have the same coastal elite problem the US has. NIMBY. (Not in my back yard.) This issue didn’t start yesterday. It has been going on for years. Think of the revenue they could have made if they had built their own pipeline. They didn’t build it for the same reason nobody can drill an oil well in California. The people in charge would sooner die than allow it to happen. The Canadian taxpayer is screwed.
