President Donald Trump wants to revive Keystone XL, a highly controversial extension of the tar sands pipeline system, despite three massive leaks over the past eight years.
I don’t think anyone’s is worried about the owners of the CA oil. I’m just pointing out we’re not going to see CA stop selling oil to the US because they have no other option. They aren’t going to take one for the team to punish the US, especially because US oil owns much of the CA oil sands operation.
Interesting… I hadn’t heard that. Can it and refineries on the otherend match the volume needed to cut the US off without pain on your side? Honestly hope so. We need to suffer on this side before the idiots that vote for Trump will acknowledge their mistake.
refining is still an issue that needs solving, as we do send oil to the US to be refined and buy the product back. I know for a long time it was considered un-economical to refine our own oil due to the volume:cost issues, but maybe that might change now?
The trouble is they have no one else to sell it to. The US is their only market for it since they have no other way to get it to market.

The trans mountain pipeline was completed last year, so we can now ship oil to other countries.
