Have you looked at Google on the Kalamazoo River spill in 2010? It was a break in a 6’ diameter pipe carrying tar sands oil for Enbridge. Was not discovered for 24 hours, and they have already spent $1 billion and it still is not completely clean. Also dozens have lost their lovely homes along the river. I think it created 300 jobs, yeah!! Also, nobody has heard about a mile of pipeline that blew up in the Chinese city of Qingdao killing 62 people in November of 2013. This was just before Biden’s trip to China and it was kept very hush, hush. Instead China changed their sea borders and there was a big media stink involving Japanese and South Korean anger over this change.
Other bad things I have heard a few weeks ago is that Canada is being given eminent domain over American land owners, and the pipeline owners will NOT have to pay into a fund that all the other oil guys do to help pay for accidents and remediation. Does not sound like FR oriented ideals, rather RHINO and Wall Street ideals.
Well that’s how Im seeing it from what I’ve investigated so far.....
It just doesn’t appear to be all that the political guys are making it out to be....in fact if what I’m seeing it’s doing nothing for us and could be bad in the long run.
It
‘s not just the job thing both parties are calling about it....it’s much more than that and I’m not at all comfortable with what I’m finding out.
Glad you’ve looked into it to....we need to be right about this.
A billion dollars already spent and still not cleaned up...THIS is what we'll be paying for Canada under the terms of their deal...we pay for cleanup ..not them. Not to mention the class action suites...southwestern Michigan agreed to pay about $6.8 million to settle a class-action lawsuit on this spill....plus $2.2 million to residents and land owners of properties ...those who lived within 200 feet of the river will split a total payment of $250,000etc etc etc
