I wish TC HAD looked at the upstream and downstream effects. And then compared them to the travesty that is Quebec and their reliance on imports from despot theocracies and the costs of lives and freedoms that is supported by that decision. Shine some light on that. And then compared the net GHG, because Alberta oil will be offsetting those imports. I would imagine a pipeline comes out pretty favourably to tankers burning bunker fuel, and Saudi Royalty cruising around in their 6 wheel Mercedes off roaders(ya, I'm jealous of that part). Oh, and add in the economic benefits and jobs created and maintained by using a Canadian product end to end as well. Plus sales, and GDP. It's kind of a no-brainer.
