I watched the news this morning, and it was kind of funny.
"Wah, they're targeting a specific BC industry, no fair"
Yeah and you're province has done what exactly?
"What, they can't stop the flow of products across provincial boarders"
Yeah and what do you call what you're doing.
Here's the funny thing, they're kind of right, in terms of the agreements signed, except from what I heard this morning, there's a rider in the provincial trade agreements that the Alberta Liquor and Gaming commission does have the right to determine products under their mandate license to move into Alberta.
Look talk and rhetoric is all find and dandy, but that's exactly what BC wants, because they can delay this thing, with talk, they can delay this thing with permit issues, they can delay this thing by running to court.
their end goal is to make Kinder Morgan throw in the towel and take their money elsewhere. Their end goal is to delay this until the end of the year.
At some point it needs to get passed Rhetoric and onto real points, Notley has done it on an Alberta level, not because its going to change BC's mind, but because its a shot across the bow of the Federal Government.
At some point soon, either Trudeau is going to collapse and decide on more consultations and meetings which will become deadlocked and solve nothing.
Or
He's going to have to verbally come out and warn BC that they're risking infrastructure funding from the Federal Government for this year.
