Some good news from Canada:

https://insiderpaper.com/canadas-first-new-oil-pipeline-in-decades-starts-operating/

“The first major new oil pipeline to be built in Canada in decades is set to open on Wednesday, praised by proponents but panned by environmentalists worried about the consequences of more crude production.

The Can$34-billion (US$25 billion) Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project was a troubled private sector plan taken over by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government in 2018 to ensure it went ahead. It will carry 600,000 additional barrels per day of oil from Alberta to Canada’s Pacific coast for shipping overseas.

Built alongside an existing 1,150-kilometer (715-mile) line erected in 1953 that already moves about 300,000 barrels of oil per day, it was meant to increase market access for the world’s fourth largest oil exporter and get a better return for Canadian crude.”

Well, more production is definitely a good thing. I do wonder, however, at the motives of Turdeau. He’s hardly concerned about the oil industry, or the survival of Canadians.
