Of course, that would also require a completely reworked environmental process, a removal of First Nations veto power over development (via endless red tape), forcing Quebec to have pipelines, etc.

All things the Canadians view as abhorrent because they enjoy congratulating themselves on all manner of luxury beliefs. All the while, they gave Trump the big stick. Congrats Canadians, your naivete is coming home to roost.
Yeah, sure. But none of these are good reasons to bone the rest of the country because you want to be sad panda about it. Get on the team or get off. We'll see how you get your oil to market to anyone but the US without ocean access. This is exactly what Trump wants. A bunch of infighting so we f*** over ourselves and he wins. It's his entire MO in everything he does.
