Trump has already basically indicated that while Keystone is back on the table that the terms of any deal have to be favorable to the US, so that might be a poisoned deal with the devil.
Just as the Alberta economy was showing some signs of coming around (Still a long ways to go), this will rip through the economy like a earth quake, I expect that over the next few weeks the layoffs thread is going to get very active again.
I would also expect that anyone that was looking at investing in the Alberta Energy sector is going to find a better use for their money else where.
There was some jacka%% on the news this morning from the Environmental Defense Fund bragging about this news today and alluding to their belief that Kinder Morgan is going to be tied up for years.
I don't blame TCPL for saying enough is enough.
I guess its ok for Quebec and Ontario to send money to Venezuela so they can bash the skulls in of their people, or Saudi Arabia so they can buy armored cars and weapons. But when it comes to this province, F us.
The Federal Government in Jim Carr blathered that its a business decision by TCPL and its not up to him to explain why they did it, but at the end of the day, the NEB changed the game in the middle of the process and basically poisoned Energy East.
Meanwhile that idiot in Montreal Coderre was already up and bragging about this. It must be nice to be in a province where everytime you sneeze someone from Ottawa shows up with a hanky and a check book.
