It's not entirely a BC obstructionism issue. There are FN challenges to consider. Whether those challenges are legitimate or relevant is up to the courts to decide and there's not much the either government can do on that front that wouldn't circumvent constitutional law. I realize the irony in saying this with what's going on with SNC, but we're governed by the rule of law and sometimes that's a messy and prolonged process.
In the long run, I'd rather our laws be given due process than have the governments of the day decide on a case-by-case basis which laws are relevant and which ones aren't. Hell, half the reason we're in the predicament we are is because the BC premiers of the previous centuries acted unilaterally and illegally.

If Alberta cut off refined gasoline to the LM and raised gas prices to $3.00 do you think BCers would cast their ire on Horgan or Alberta? Honest question I'm curious.

Likely Alberta, to be honest. I'd also argue that Kenny going scorched-Earth on BC and QC is going to put Scheer in an awkward position during the federal campaign.
