I can definitely get behind this project. Who should be contacted?

It would be cheaper and more useful to build a railway connection to Alaska. We should've done that with the north slope oil too. Would've opened up quite a lot of resources up that way, in the Yukon, and British Columbia.

Order of magnitude cost for a double track rail connection would be $3-5 billion.

I felt it should have been built when the original oil pipeline was built.

My friends on the North Slope and in Anchorage insist that there's tons of natural gas wasted; burned off/flared for various economical/convenience reasons.

Dumb to waste a resource.

And the construction project would provide jobs.

Of course the Dumbocr*ps will not want to do anything sensible or fostering security and survival--even if it's environmentally helpful.

They'd rather castrate themselves--oh--that's right--they're already eunuchs--anyway--had they balls--they'd rather castrate themselves than admit stupidity or being wrong.
