Lots of talk in this thread as if building pipelines across Canada is a no-brainer for the rest of the country but I haven't exactly been wowed with any of the logic or reasoning behind it other than Alberta needs pipelines to help stave off economic turmoil which is of course a legitimate reason, but mostly for Albertans.

Because if you're not buying it from Alberta then you're buying it from Saudi Arabia or the USA.
And in light of Albertan equalization payments propping up the ridiculously fiscally untenable regimes of Quebec and Ontario for years this is akin to sh##ing where you eat.
