CN Strikes

[jazz]

Guess this goes deeper, Ontario and Maritimes now running short.

And even better, CN is represented by Unifor and that slimeball thug Gerry Dias who was given $600M by trudeau to dole out to friendly media. Wonder if Trudeau will legislate his buddy back to work. NDP will vote against it.

I am just loving this.

It's a fairly significant and extremely ironic problem. Looks good on the urbanites for blocking pipelines, but it's also screwing up an already extremely challenging corn harvest. Very late planting because of too much rain this spring, then no rain at all in places, then a cool summer...

So we are having a late harvest of very wet corn and then no propane, there are very few NG lines out in the countryside. Putting more in is a slow process, but gradually happening. It will never be economically feasible for many.

So the propane crunch is putting the brakes on taking corn off since it won't keep well at 30 - 35% moisture. The calendar is clicking along...

Our area sources its propane from the Sarnia refineries, but they are now swamped with trucks coming from all over the east.

If it comes down to who gets first dibs, who do you think will win - city voters, or corn farmers?

And who do you think it is that supports pipelines?

So the word from my corn customer this morning is that he was allocated enough propane to dry what he had in wet storage and that's it.

So the farmer's crops - that would be the blue areas on the election results map - can sit and wait in the snow and rain while the red areas get to keep on running as usual.

Some day...

Creates an awkward spot for the elevators with NG too... how much drying can you do for people that normally use propane when your loyal regulars can use all your capacity and then some? Do you turn some away or do you have to ration everybody?

Nothing like a labour dispute or political differences to bring out the best in our fellow country men and women!

Doug Ford even sounded reasonable after he met with Trudeau. "It's just politics"

Ford has left Moe and Kenney looking a little isolated. Ford the peace maker? Who would have thought!

It wasn't a month ago that the separatist Blanchet said he didn't want nothing to do with an oil state....and now the Premier of Quebec is begging Ottawa for help....

Kenney has the same kind of advisors as Scheer had - maybe the same buffoons. 🙄

Quebec is in a very weak position. Say the US does start to develop its own renewables, where will they sell their hydro power. Cant load that on a ship like oil or LNG.

They could send it west, its expensive generating power from NG and coal looks dead.

Someone make a grand bargain on this energy corridor. Hydro comes west, FF come east and nobody blocks anyone. I dont think hydro Quebec would put Saskpower out of business. makes more sense that trying to cover the land in solar panels.

Climate Cult says second HOTTEST year ever, 2019, if you add up EVERY thermometer on earth for every second of the year, that are absolutely ACCURATE to a TENTH of a degree, and those inputting data are 100% honest, divide by 31,536,000 seconds = believable? F*CK NO! Then compare that to data that is inaccurate or deleted and replaced 1950 and earlier.
Nothing but ERRORS guaranteed. Sure sounds STUPID doesn't it?
