The flip side is that, should Alberta ever build out refinery capacity for its production, then the Texas advantage will disappear.

The same issues we are debating for the crude oil / bitumen pipeline will apply to a gasoline / diesel / Jet fuel pipeline.

Gasoline would need to be delivered to the consumer in, say, Seattle, Denver and Minneapolis, versus bitumen, which currently needs to be delivered to the Gulf refineries. Gasoline transportation issues and costs should be a fraction of bitumen's.

Am I understanding this correctly?
