| For what it's worth, given that it's only 50/50 that he's telling the truth at any given time, Jason Kenney said that the information he has was that Teck made the final decision because the federal cabinet was going to kick the deadline for approval down the road by another six months to a full yea... |

| The way your government works you'd think Canada doesn't want to have a military. This is why I've said to you several times that Canada should just farm the entire defense role out to the United States for $20 or 25 billion per year. It would be less embarrassing, not to mention significantly less... |

| Teck also said that the lack of a finished pipeline played into their decision. And the goal-posts keep being moved on the federal carbon policy too. Alberta still has a carbon tax of a sort, just not the kind the hard-left wants. So it's a mistake to think that it's only Alberta's policy that shape... |

| I don't doubt it was a hail mary by Teck. The problem is that when the referee is so biased and in obvious favour of the other team that they might as well be wearing an opponent's uniform the desperation plays are really all that's left. |

| The best part about a conspiracy is the lack of need for evidence. The only fact we have is Teck decided to pull the plug themselves. Whether the rug was going to be pulled on them or not, their letter detailing the reasons seem pretty sound. And if Trudeau was pulling the plug, they could have sai... |

| No one pulls a project after spending that much money on development unless they're suddenly aware the fix is in on it. Teck's sole positive out of this is being able to use the loss as a tax write off. |

| Not financially viable, after spending a billion on engineering and planning, all due to an economic catastrophe deliberately created in the last five years by a hard-left Canadian federal government. |

| Good for Russia. Maybe they can get some licenses to export to Canada. They could even get some exclusive-rights piers and terminals built in the Lower Mainland and along the St. Lawrence Seaway and in New Brunswick. Maybe it could also be somehow arranged for SNC Lavalin to get an exclusive 100% ta... |

| Doesn't mean anything at all in an era where the current US President has no problem at all with the murderworlds in places like Russia, Turkey, Philippines, Saudi Arabia, and North Korea. Or openly admires them for taking the bone-saws to troublemakers. |

He began it by getting rid of the fiscal oversight of how tax dollars were being spent after funds were transferred to the chiefs and band councils. He then made it worse by inserting all that "every dissenting voice mu... |

| Probably time for this country to admit that it isn't a problem that can't be solved as much as it is one that won't be solved because there's too many powerful interests involved that gain too much advantage from the status quo. To wit: - Laurentian Consensus: existing situation allows them to endl... |
