I agree with you completely. I do however have more fear of a Trudeau government with Gerald Butts as his chief advisor.

Last year Kenny came out and said that Trudeau had very little interest in pushing our Oil to markets because it would go against his environmental beliefs, it looks like he's vindicated with today's announcement. Butts was very anti-oilsands and kept bleating about Canada being able to have alternative economy by 2050 and not pushing for pipelines. He later backed off on those statements because it would hurt Justin's campaign. But Butts is no friend of this province.
