My viewpoint on this is that it's unfortunate but not unforeseen. I refuse to believe that there are any execs or VPs out there that didn't see this coming earlier in 2020 (after Biden's plans were revealed).
We're a province of extremely smart and innovative individuals that can and will come up with another solution.
Maybe KXL with it's long and exhausting history has to just die for another less tainted name to take it's place?
All I know, and I can't believe I have to say this again, is that yes....Biden will be much easier to deal and comprise with than Donald ####ing Trump.

We're right to be mad when governments at all levels on both sides of the border have bungled this situation up so much for vanity's sake and a whole host of other bad reasons.
You act like a magical 3rd option exists - no - its either pipe in the ground or it is going by truck and rail. Look at the rail contracts pre-curtailment, which I imagine is where we are heading back to. Those options are so much more environmentally risky and damaging that alone they point out how stupid the pipeline fight is. You've just replaced a safe pipeline with 10,000 trucks and rail cars waiting for an accident to happen.
And never mind the multitude of other impacts these brutal decisions have that only net increase fossil fuel emissions globally. Crippling the supply side domestically does nothing to reduce demand globally except force us all to import more cheap crude from sketchy places and load our roads and rails with a bunch of bombs and leaks waiting to happen.
