President Joe Biden’s administration is supporting Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s decision to ship natural gas pipeline equipment to Germany, which will lead to the European economic hub importing more Russian natural gas.
State Department spokesman Ned Price expressed Washington’s support for the move in a statement Monday.
Trudeau’s government plans to ship the equipment for the Nord Stream 1 pipeline back to Germany after it had been kept in Montreal due to sanctions on Russian gas, according to Bloomberg. The decision is aimed at preventing serious economic turmoil in Germany due to high energy prices.

Princess Justine Turdeau and the rest of her fellow leaders in the West are on crack.
The pipeline that Bidet blocked THE DAY HE TOOK OFFICE, would have been DELIVERING OIL NOW.
Gee I wonder if might have helped with gasoline and diesel prices which are the main driver of inflation.
The green “get rid of fossil fuels” cross was n needs to held accountable .
Our economic mess is DIRECTLY THEIR FAULT.
HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE.
In what wild a$$ century do you think Ukraine would imagine gaining transit fees from Russian gas in their pipelines. The only way that would happen is if Russia completely subjugated Ukraine, and then used Ukraine soil to send gas or oil in pipelines from the territory they seized around Crimea and in Donbass. It is highly improbable that Ukraine would allow that to happen if they still retained any independence in the areas not already seized by Russia. So long as Ukraine retains a reasonable level of independence, I cannot imagine Russia rewarding them with huge fees from Russian oil and gas
On the other hand, if Ukraine receives oil and gas from other countries via the Black Sea, that would be a different situation. Does Ukraine have the capacity to be serviced by oil tankers or LNG in Odessa, or territories they might regain?
This pipeline equipment was in Montreal, Quebec. It was nowhere near Alberta, and from what was written it sounds like it was earmarked for Germany, not Alberta.
Another point is that what is being shipped is natural gas pipeline supplies. This has nothing to do with the kind of pipeline material that would be needed to ship the highly sludgy bitumin produced from Alberta’s tar sands. It is tar, not natural gas, 2 different animals. Kind of like birds versus elephants.
Alberta has been waiting for Me. Globalist to turn his attentions domestic. Alberta should have had 5 pipelines that it does not.
“Biden and Trudeau have shut down the production
of domestic natural gas, introduced startegic weakness doe to Green New Deal Policies, and made Europe dependent on Russian fossil fuels.”
Why do you tell such LIES when a Google check is so easy? https://thehill.com/policy/energy-environment/3469269-biden-administration-allows-additional-natural-gas-exports/
“The Biden administration is allowing for additional natural gas exports after Russia shut off gas to two of the U.S.’s NATO allies. The Energy Department announced on Wednesday that it would issue two orders allowing for the export of a total of 500 million additional cubic feet per day of liquified natural gas from projects in Texas and Louisiana.”
Your July LIES must be a real shock to Texas and Louisiana who not only HAD been enjoying exporting their gas, but in late April were looking forward to exporting even more.
Alberta could build its own refinery to do everything it needs to do to create the oil products that could be sold on the market, but that doesnt change the product of how to ship our oil onto the world market without a pipeline.
Let me give you an example of the contortions our bastard PM is willing to do to argue against a pipeline for Alberta.
He told Alberta to ship our oil to Prince Rupert and load our oil from rail car to one of Paul Martin’s oil tankers. Once it was loaded, it would travel down the West Coast and through the Panama canal and up the east coast to the New Brunswick refinery that is owned by the Irvings.
No. It has everything to do with nationalizing Alberta’s resource for the benefit of Quebec. If Alberta finally gave in and gave custody of the oil to the Federal government, Trueshit would order martial law to get the pipelines built. Any native tribe or environmentalist group that stood in the way, he’d order them shit.
Marc LaLonde, a former federal cabinet minister under Trueshit Sr and Chretien pretty much admitted this on a radio show he did at one time.
That’s what it has always been about.
TC Energy points out that it is already supplying pipeline energy to the US, and it is ending and cleaning up any preliminary work on the canceled pipeline.
“Republicans say Biden’s energy policies — including canceling the KXL Pipeline — mean less leverage and high gas prices for the United States as well as more money and power for Russia’s war effort.
But TC Energy is not budging from the decision it made to shutter the project after President Joe Biden revoked the permit it needs to cross into the U.S.
The company says it’s already helping the U.S. meet its energy needs. “The existing Keystone Pipeline System is strategically located and continues to be fully utilized,” TC Energy said in an email. “It has delivered over 3.3 billion barrels of crude oil to market since 2010. It will continue to provide unique, stable and safe source of energy to meet increasing U.S. energy demands.”
Because they don’t the assurance that they can build the pipeline without having it arbitrarily cancelled.
It takes billions of dollars and thousands of miles of pipelines to build it and they can’t trust Bidon to allow them to build it.
Even if they had an ironclad guarantee, it would billions of dollars of prep work, three years to get the materials and equipment and at least as long to get thanpower together.
It isn’t feasible, as long as Democrats pose a threat. That’s why they said they won’t build it. Not because it isn’t needed, but because we can’t trust liberals.
If Alberta had its own refinery, a proposal I have never heard before, and I have been following the KXL pipeline issue for a number of years, there would have been a lot less objection to the transmission of ordinary oil, rather than bitumin. Even so the regular oil in the ONE DAY Kalamazoo River spill in 2010, which has cost more than a $BILLION to remediate was certainly a wakeup call to anyone who cares even a little about maintaining a good environment in our country.
By all means, let Canada refine its own oil and ship it to its own east coast refineries. The bitumin being shipped to texas was slated for treatment in a special refinery and then shipped out of the country to China and elsewhere. Thus, no help to US oil needs.
If Alberta spent the 5 billion dollars to build a refinery, it doesn’t change the equation because Trueshit is determining whether a proposal can go ahead by whether or not we have genderized the oil jobs, where thon women can be on the rigs working beside burly men.
Everything about Alberta’s oil is about how much of our resource gets to go to Quebec for free.
That’s what it has always been about. Trueshit and Canadian liberals are willing to do irreparable damage to Alberta’s economy unless we are willing to hand over our oil to them and ask for nothing back.
In Trueshit’s mind, the only good Albertan is a dead Albertan.
End all of the suicide sanctions immediately and make deals to ensure the free flow of fuel, fertilizer, and food.
If this is primarily a political fight between Alberta and Quebec, then we are well out of it. And I am glad that we did not get tricked into rescuing an oil company from their domestic politics and inflicting our domestic politics with their problems.
There is no fight, as Alberta is not allowed to say no. It’s status is that of a slave province.
That’s how Canada works.
It is a plantation nation.
Tha American supply of natural gas is a minor fraction of what is needed and Biden could be supplying a LOT more.
Instead they reduce our own fracking system in the USA, shut down domestic oil pipelines ( both Biden and Trudeau), restrict oil development, while pretending to supply Europe with natiral gas.
That gas supply you indicate is less than a fart in a gas train, and now they supply Russia with billions to continue the war in Ukraine by assuring continuity of Nordstrom-1?Trump wanted that dead.But Socialist Merkel-established the Russia gold train to make Germany green. I say let Germany enjoy a cold winter rather than supply the Russia with billions.
Get with the facts. When you look up close at the elephant all you see is a few hairs. Get some perspective.Read about the Carbon Fpootprint goals of the Trudeau green a$$hats, with the goal of preventing farmers from using deisel equipment by 2025.They are even planning on imposing a carbon tax on cattle farmers based on Cow farts.
The Great Green Socialist Reset is the plan, and that includes making Russia very, very wealthy, while establishing a war of attrition in Ukraine that will be wealth generation engine for the left for many, many years, paid for by your tax dollars and possibly the blood of our own men and women.NATO is a socialist enterprise. Look what they did in Libya.Destroyed the Great Man Made River and the greening of the Southern Desert and now millions go witout water and starve, with a large cha-ching to the Obama machine fromthe Libyan gold reserves.
The Great Green Socialist Reset is the plan, and that includes making Russia very, very wealthy,
