BC liquid LNG project

[Guest]

well , can't believe it , but Trudeau gets full points for this one . obviously some confidence in our country .
Harper are you paying attention ?
if he can get this pipeline going , it will really help the oilpatch , which helps Canada a lot .
maybe Quebec realized where the transfer payments are coming from
anyways this is a really good thing for Canada , or am I missing something ?

You know I can't stand all the truduea balognie with all the rights of certain people. Immigration, Maloney going to losers and a few other things but he has said he wants the pipeline built and now this.
Harper did absolutely fk all
And as much as the conservatives want to politicize everything about oil they re spinning things that aren't there to avoid people
Looking at what they failed to do.
Did they do anything for grain transportation?
Did they fk up in the way they got rid of the wheat board hell yes
Did they screw up the farm programs?
Why in the hell didn't Harper with a majority gov not negotiate the east pipeline as well?

Even the nafta deal who could actually make any kind of deal with a loser like trump? And yet it happenned and all the items are not in yet but so far doesn't appear that bad.

What I am pissed about is nothing happenning about pulse markets. The weather disaster that has already happenned and the horrible programs in place.

I give credit to Moe for going to china but how come there are no details about farm discussions with china or were there none?

Big Wheel, you are bang on Harper, he was a dud, a wet rag, and will be remembered for his ass draggin. I really hope Trudeau has smartened up with the polls and elections- maybe he is getting the message that he hasn't impressed many people yet but he does have time to redeem himself. Forget the carbon BS, gender crap, the oil bashing, the open borders. JT get your big boy pants on and surprise us get these pipelines built, straighten out these railways, go to bat for us with India by putting same tariffs on their goods. Just that much would go a long way with respect to nation building.

A couple of interesting thoughts here. Because the LNG Canada project doesn't cross any provincial borders no federal approval is required. Also it was Truceau that introduced bill C-48 which outlaws the transportation of crude oil from northern B.C. Ports but apparently doesn't stop LNG. The government's of B.C. first started working towards exporting LNG in 1982, taking 36 years to get to this point. B.C. Also exempted LNG Canada from provincial sales tax during construction, has agreed that LNG Canada is exempt from any future carbon tax increases and will get preferential electricity rates. So really Trudeau did **** all but show up!

Was wondering about
The pipeline is the real issue the natives want to own the pipeline? This other one partnership with the Chinese is that competing with transmountain?

I thought I read governments are throwing in 275 million towards this LNG project...

Conservatives suppose to be oil company politics yet more done on pipeline with a NDP government in Alberta and a Liberal government in Ottowa.Harper was in such a bubble he never met with or cared about provincial politics.Harper was a leader of the Conservatives not of Canada.

WTF happened

I would never be a willing partner in any business venture involving natives and the chinese. The govt can get in bed with them if they want. The private money must be from overseas because no canadian company would join this. Wouldnt touch transmountain either. If the only way we get our resources developed is to have foreign owner ship combined with govt and natives, I want no part of that.

And truthfully, this was started under harper and the former BC libs. All trudeau did was show up for the signing, like he always does.

Jazz you ARE in a business relationship with native people...it’s called Treaty 4

Jazz

"I would never be a willing partner in any business venture involving natives and the chinese"

You have a very short memory, does NEXEN not ring a bell.

"A Chinese state-owned oil giant is being allowed to expand its holdings in Canada’s oilpatch with a $15.1-billion buyout."

Yet you come on here defending Harper as usual.

I suppose your happy the way Closet Boy and Ritz Cracker dismantle all the Ag Safety Net programs as well?

Are you seriously giving Trudeau credit for LNG? This LNG project had full approval before Trudeau was even elected. The investors were sitting on the project waiting to give a final investment decision for years. The decision to build it has nothing to do with any current government, it has to do with the need to extract the resources and sell them overseas to market by the resource permit holders.
