Your not going to change public perception when you have Notley jetting off for NDP fundraisers in Ontario to support a party that is anti-oilsands and anti-pipeline.

you are not going to change public perception when you go to Quebec and basically drop to your knees, give them a veto and tell them that Alberta is a dirty province with a bad environmental record.

You're not going to change public perception when Quebec files a court injunction that goes against the constitution of this country and you just basically shrug your shoulders and melt.

You stand up and very loudly sell this pipeline as a safer alternative and that you as premiere fully and completely and loudly support it. You support your industry loudly and from the top of a soap box. You don't mumble and stand by quietly.

When BC takes a shot at you, you tell them to shut their lying mouths. When Quebec mouths off tell them to come back when they live up to the standards that they want you to live up and then tell them to shut their mouths.

Every week you get on the phone with the prime minister and ask him the question. Have you set the deadline date for the review, and will your office support it when its approved. then you tell him to shut his mouth and get you some tang.
