I'm asking what actual tactics are needed to get out of the quandary. I agree market access is an important issue. Current tactics of being mad at opponents and calling them stupid and not getting it, while psychologically satisfying, hasn't worked. So, what do you actually do?

I'm not sure there are any tactics. LNG Canada and its NG pipeline, Coastal Gas Link, are supported by the BC and Alberta Governments and the Federal Government, aren't the "dreaded" bitumen that contaminate coastal areas if spilled and yet a small number of protesters against the project were able to halt much of Canada's railroad system with little repercussion.
