You're mad because he didn't build a deep sea port in less than 2 years?
The northern BC port is a good and viable idea but an arctic port for the sake of an artic port dosen't sound that viable. If we need to connect it to a pipeline to make it work, thats fine with me.
Please...the highest budget for a port is $150 million. It was a cornerstome of his Arctic policy, including three year round capable icebreakers based there. Now he says he wants to exploit the wealth up there and have ships register with us...where? Ottawa? Toronto? How the fuck are we supposed to do that? Rangers on skidoos can only do so much...
We spent 10 times the cost of the port on a GST cut...30 times that for those four C-17 moving vans. We're going to spend more buying 6 used Chinooks for Afghanistan...the point is he has frittered away the surplus he was left with and now can't afford to buy a free lunch.
When he was hiding in Iqaluit, he promised it, no strings attached. Now, two years later, suddenly they have to wait a decade until a pipeline is built? BS is what that is...
