Trump poses competitive threat to Canadian drilling industry, which is set to rehire

Just pointing out the hypocrisy of eastern Canada . I Don't care how long they have been importing Saudi oil or what party started it - its wrong .
They continually slam dirty oil from Alberta - have taken huge transfer payments from the west while helping sponsor a known terrorist state. Now in a panic to close dirty coal as well , all the while saying it's ok and economical to import blood oil from Saudi .... follow the money
Environmentalists out east don't say a word about this ever. The same ones who think this carbon tax is going to save the climate ...

yea wtf ? why aren't the greens or human rights activists asking why ?...

should have been east west pipelines a long time ago. Why not cut the imports and use that as a bullshit
number to reduce carbon in the fuel it takes to bring that oil across the ocean.

We should be using domestic oil 100% whether its higher or lower price just so we aren t subject to anything they want to impose on us.

Stonepicker the price of oil went down because of oversupply and lower demand. Not because of the NDP in Alberta or Trudeau in Ottawa.

Agriville is kind of useless when you get so many ill tempered responses that add nothing to the debate. Pretty much a waste of time!

Well then by all means, find another spot to invest your time!

I don't think many here would mind at all.

Why? You don't bite the hand that feeds you.

Because they are being funded by middle-east oil interests, that's why.

So if everyone who wants an exemption from the new tax gets one, who is left to pay it???
We wont be able to look Joe Lunchbox in the eye.
A cost free tax is a better scam than successfully selling the London bridge! Sure wish it went to nurses and teachers instead.

Or utility right of ways.

There should be a tariff on Saudi oil equivalent to the transportation cost in a pipeline. That would increase the price easterners pay for that oil and equalize our loss in not being able to access a market in our own country. Fair is fair! We don't let milk, eggs and poultry into this country because we want to protect domestic production, what about oil? Just think how much eastern debt could be serviced with the duty.
