Since there’s no way of knowing what will make them go away, since Trump keeps moving goalposts / scope of concerns / demands. I actually don’t think there’s anything Canada can do but tariff heavy oil in retaliation.
Canada should enact emergency measures to build nationalized pipeline capacity capable of transporting current heavy crude volumes plus growth to BC to reach tidewater. Use the previous fresh right of ways and path that TMX just used and build another line and then figure out the marine export piece, I’ve heard that’s a bottleneck. Enact emergency measures and basically force it through without consultation processes immediately. Try to have it built within a 2-3 years.
