I mean, I'll take it given the circumstances, but the fact that we're here at all is not something I'm inclined to feel the slightest bit optimistic about. |
Agreed, I really don't take a lot of solace in the Liberals somewhat tepid support of what should be an absolute slam dunk. In a country where TMX, Northern Gateway, Keystone, and Energy East were all active projects at one time it's depressing that we're fighting tooth and nail to even get one of them.
Any other country on earth would have major, 600,000+bbl/d pipelines to both coasts by now.
