The name should be "Energy Far East Pipeline"

[Oliver88]

Here is an example how the oil industry helps "build" budgets in non-oil producing provinces.

Now mustard if it was a Useless NDP plan to move oil out of Saskatchewan and Alberta you would be standing on a soap box proclaiming its the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Give it a rest.

So oliver88 if it's about Exporting oil , then Advertise it as such.
But to tell everyone this bullshit that it Will replace the Imported oil is a Ploy to gain Public Support.

The refineries in the east CANT refine heavy oil

[Hopalong]

Energy East has plan for feeder line to take Bakken light crude to feed into main line at Moosomin.
Would perhaps supply our eastern refineries and get that oil off our railways that run through towns and cities all the way to Atlantic.

How do you know the Baaken oil or oil in Saskatchewan can't be used to replace imported oil?
There is oil in western Canada that can do both, fill the eastern refineries AND be exported for a higher value than land locked oil receives.

Maybe you started yet another ridiculous bullshit thread because your are an environmental kook who is anti-oil.

Another mustard/bullshit example is being opposed to pipelines when you are worried about GHG levels and want carbon taxes.

Question and answer: mustard, do you farm? I don't think so. Are you an ndp party member who's job it is to spew propaganda and hearsay? I think so. Are you concerned about the facts? Nope. Do you have any friends? Sadly, i don't think so. Do you enjoy life? Sadly, i don't think so. You can't even see the fact that shipping oil east is good for east and western canada. ( more jobs building pipeline and upgrading refineries, cheaper oil in the long run, less carbon footprint, not dependent on imported oil ) Get a life.

[SASKFARMER3]

Plus the Big one Less oil in Rail Tankers. So railways can ship grain and other stuff.
But to a NDP that's not good.

[Oliver88]

One more point that HOPEFULLY our environmentalist/anti-oil friends on Agriville maybe can grasp.

[Guest]

we need the pipeline so we can sell enough oil at a higher price so we can afford to keep sending welfare checks east . sounds like nation building to me ? what am I missing ? although I think it would be more beneficial to the west to just cut the cancerous growth off and carry on with our lives

[DogPatch]

Why don't we just upgrade our current refineries, build another one and process the bit. and sell it as end products. The price of gas at the pumps doesn't follow the price of oil anymore, it follows the price of unleaded and diesel on their markets. Piss on Quebec, lets get her done. Big oil might make a dollar, but it will put people back to work.
