It seems to me that being concerned about the environment is of far more importance to Canadians and than sanctioning the actions of the US oil cartel whose environment stewardship record gets a failing grade
The problem for Canadians is that if these pipe lines go through it will cost them big money and there is every chance it will cost them their precious environment. Especially in the Rockies. With the only benefit going to the US oil cartel, the pipe line companies, Harper and his Fascist Government and the media. Let’s get one thing straight TransNotCanada [ Keystone ], Enbridge [ Gateway ] and Kinder Morgan are all owned by Wall St. THEY ARE NOT CANADIAN OWNED COMPANIES. All of the major oil companies operating in the tar sands region fall under the umbrella of the US oil cartel [ a 80 year US monopoly ], again owned by Wall St. So when Harper talks about the oil business in Alberta, refering to the activity being Canadian, it is another fairy tale.
The environmental movement [ Suzuki / Tides ] is actually endangering Harper’s employer in that it could deny the cartel a supply of cheap raw tar mixed with lighter fluid needed to get their idle refineries in Port Arthur and California back up and running. Harper and his Fascist Government just have to get access to Alberta’s bitument as cheaply as possible and with all of the restricitons on CO2, tailing pond residue and poison discharges into the rivers removed. All three proposed OIL PIPE LINES will carry DilBit [ tar /lighter fluid / sand / chemicals ] although the pipes are not approved to carry this dangerous mixture. In payday loans Texas terms of the Keystone, the DilBit sent to Port Arthur will never enter the US fuel system, there is already a glut.
The cartel isn’t even interested in the Americans, demand is falling and they don’t have any money anyway. There is no market in Asia for our DilBit. China’s economy is soft and that Country is fast approaching the point where it will be an oil exporter. The Gateway is meant to take DilBit to Kitimat, to be loaded on tankers to go to idle refineries in California. Morgan – Kinder would take DilBit to Burnaby to go by tanker to California too. These pipes will cost Albertans / Canadians money and endanger the environment. Again the winners will be the cartel, pipe line companies, Harper and the media. All Canadians should be protesting this heist not just environmentalists.
Well, why yes
Of course [ Suzuki / tides etc ] are the only group the US oil cartel can’t buy off. The oil cartel wants all oppositions stifled as they did in California. Nixon showed the way didn’t he. Tricky Dick used the IRS to intimidate his opponents and purchased the conventional media particularly the newspapers. So Harper is using the same ploy and his woman servant, Gail Shea of Rev. Can. Harper consider this to be political in nature. But in fact the actions of all these groups is angering the oil cartel. Rev. Can. I would like to draw Gail’s attention to the three biggies, the Fraser, C. D. Howe and Pastor Manning Institutes, charities all are actively supporting Harper’s agenda. Isn’t that political activity folks?
And they are charities just like the Suzuki Foundation and Tides. What is Harper, nuts? He suffers from UPC. Giving one of such sufferer an unlimited amount of money without restrains and allowing him to operate above the law can endanger a society, as is happening to us. One guy I have been following is Brian Cowley who is president of the Macdonald – Laurier. If you go on the net you can see this operation is yet another charity like the Fraser Institute. Recently Niels Veldhuis of the Fraser had an interview with the National Post.
